what does everybody think about this box set that Paramount is putting out?
i feel that its a good idea and i can not wait to have this box set in my collection. although i still would have liked Paramount to release the Dvds all uncut but i haven't seen to many of the friday the 13th series. i've only seen part 6 so i guess in a way it doesn't matter much to me. as long as i own the box set when it comes out on the '' 25th of October '' .
