Friday the 13th - 4K Blu-Ray [4K Ultra HD Blu-ray]

Very dark but well preserved image the transfer could have had better color grading but it holds up well enough

Great movie and quality is great. I feel bad for the day when they get rid of physical media. I get excited for things like this.

Excellent remaster of a great horror movie. Both video and audio are excellent.

Basically, the slasher movie that set the trend. It's always a joy to watch this movie from time to time. You have to admire it's simplicity and low key approach in crafting such an effective horror movie. The way these kind of movies were made at the time. Straightforward without all the spectacle. The 4k transfer is fine for the most part. You can definitely see the improved sharpness, contrast, and deeper tones. I don't mind the extra grain too. However, there is the presence of black crush, and it is prevalent throughout film. Certain details that should be visible now disappear into the shadows. This is unacceptable. There is no reason for this especially in scenes that doesn't require a creepy effect. Very disappointing . On a positive note, I was very satisfied with the 5.1 audio. I thought it was much more balanced than on the previous blu ray "8 movie collection" where the music was too loud and bass drowning out all the other sound effects. This is corrected on the 4k disc. Do I recommend it this 4k transfer. If you don't mind a little black crush here and there, then yes. A least the audio was improved.

One of the best that started an amazing series of films. Happy to upgrade this one!
