Shock Till You Drop have posted a brief clip of the original ending to Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter which will be included on the upcoming Deluxe Edition DVD

With 1985’s Friday the 13th Part V: A New Beginning not only disappointing critics but alienating the fans, Paramount soon realised that they had to bring Jason Voorhees back in a new and exciting way

From the forthcoming FRIDAY THE 13th (2009) KILLER CUT hitting DVD/Blu-Ray on June 16th, Jason’s face revealed! In this scene, it’s still kept in shadows and seen very sparingly.

Whilst a constant criticism levelled at the slasher genre is its repetition and recycled ideas, it seems that those that attempt to divert away from the standard formula are often greeted with hostility.

The Friday the 13th remake was probably the most hyped horror movie of the year, with websites and magazines whetting fans’ appetites for the twelve months that led up to its recent release.
