I love the custom slip covers. I feel like artsy fans and real fans of the films will know which movie is which. Plus name is still on the side. Really is just down to preference
I'm not sure why people are so against this set. Even if you just want Breakdown and Friday 2, the preorder price is basically cheaper than buying 2 separate 4K releases. Might as well grab the box and get 2 more movies.
From what I have heard, most who have critiques don't like the box being so space wasting. Also, some people weren't impressed by the slip covers in the first set, so they don't have high expectations for #2.
@@reap_25not Friday part 2? World war z is a better version than the scream. This one is so good lll grab one if I can even though I own all but two of the movies in that set.
It’s because paramount has a very small catalog of horror films and all the good ones have been released except the Friday the 13 th box so the whole thing is ridiculous.
@@midlevelmedia They did do it for Blu-ray in a steelbook edition, Ken. The artwork is decent, but instead of the number 8 in red below Jason, just have the water red color...spreading out from Jason. THAT would have been better. Check it out if you have not seen it. I'm sure Paramount may have that in the works AFTER we all bought the individual releases, of course. lol
I actually like the paramount scares boxes. Cause ill just enjoy all the films since i didnt have any of them already. And 15 bucks oer 4k. Is not a bad deal at all
not a no brainer for me, I usually buy box sets to SAVE space lol if they came out with a "slim" standard version, I would jump on it. I don't love any of those movies enough to have a big green box lol and the slipcovers are awful imo
That is a nice box set! Usually I’m not a fan of locking new releases behind a box set but in this case they priced it well and the movie selection is nice. And like you stated, they put a nice effort behind it.
My son and I just ordered this after seeing your video. And we are extremely excited for the titles in this set break down.I have been looking 4 on blu-ray for a long time and I am excited to see these all have cases, not just cardboard sleeves like Paramount did with Star Trek, the motion picture last year. I spent a $100 on 1 movie and there was no case so I could integrate it into my collection. I had to improvise something. Glad to see all of these have individual cases inside the set, and look forward to having it in the collection
Got mine in today, Amazon didn't even put it in a box, just slapped sticker on the shrink wrap and shipped it, I imagine many people will want an exchange if they all went out this way.
I'm looking forward to mine. And always man, thank you for these videos. I'm not always leaving comments but I'm usually watching. Also, I know it's each to their own, but I do like those slips. Mainly because they're exclusive for this set. Paramount is thinking of us collectors. We're not always on the same page, but they're definitely trying
I think I might buy this for Breakdown alone. I’ve been a fan of Breakdown since I saw it in the Theater. J.T. Walsh was really good in this. I do think it’s a little out of place in this lineup, but I’ve wanted this movie on 4k for a while and I’ve never seen The Orphan sequel, so that’s a bonus.
@@hailhydra2296 Orphan First Kill is the only movie in this box set I haven’t seen. So if I like it after watching it, I’ll keep it. Otherwise, I’ll probably put it on eBay.
For the World War Z in this set, it does not have the Director's Cut on the 4K disc. This was the issue, if you will, with it already being released on the 4K format. They only put the Director's Cut on the Blu-ray. They should have put it on the 4K to make this set an added draw or interest. Just my thoughts, Ken. 16:35 I have the first 4 Friday the 13th movies in the Steelbook HD Blu-ray releases. Artwork is superb throughout. I have the Shout Factory Deluxe Edition box set coming. Goit it brand new for $117. WHY can't we get a NOES box set like THAT?? lol Come on!
That is owned by warner bros and reports are the cgi fire in the first one limits it to 2k only not possible on 4k blu ray because of cgi fire being used while it was filmed using film instead of digtal Orphan first kill was filmed in digtal native 4k so it didn't have any issues with cgi fire
@@bman6285 really? I'd hope not at least but we'll see if we can get it or not. I know first kill has a 4k already but it was only for the UK until now
@dominicarroyo6269 yes really Same issue as Inglorious basterds but due to how low budget orphan is it isn't worth a 4k upscale even because it would likely make it worse since it wasn't made for 4k format
Now this is a fantastic box set...breakdown is in my top 25 movies of all time so its worth it just for that title alone but i HATE those ugly slipcovers...why couldnt they just do original poster art for all the slipcovers??? see if they did that i would've ordered yesterday but now i have to import the 4k because they couldnt do it proper.
To be honest ken, them going the easy and lazy way out with the plain slipcovers is kinda making me angry.....like you said the 4k logo at the top glossy slips with original theatrical poster art...is that so difficult to do paramount???
No it doesnt actually it is mislabled blu ray only @craigcayetano But the Theatrical is from the the orignal camera negative on 4k blu ray in this set Previous release by scream factory 4k blu ray was sourced from a 2k scan upscaled for theatrical cut and this set has better audio Due to cgi added after theatrical the unrated cut is forever stuck on standard blu ray
II'm trying to order this set from a Canadian retailer and it's nowhere to be found. I'll have to buy from Amazon US and pay for import fees. Canada sucks 😡
It’s a nice set but I have World War Z on 4k so that and my Friday the 13th box set and having the other 2 films on blu ray makes it silly for me to spend the money on movies I have. But it is nice.
Yes it might be at a good price point, but the video quality is not great. Just seen Breakdown and Friday part 2 and I wasn't impressed. Audio is at best average. Disappointed.
That is why no one is reviewing the video quality of this set..did not brought 1st set..passing this one as well! Waiting for Black Friday sale to buy better box set than this crap
What turns me off of this box set is the mismatch of movies in it. I don't really consider any of these movies to be remotely in the same category as any of the others. World War Z in the same box as Friday the 13th Part 2? If they were all at least close to the same year that would have been a plus. I'll Pass on this one
The Friday the 13th 4K was a bit dark-not quite as bad as the complaints would have one believe, but even still, a tad bit too dark. It would have looked better ever so slightly brighter. But my main issue with it was the revisoniat change from the fade to white title sequence into a fade to black title sequence. NEVER change the actual content of film without offering the original version! It’s just plain wrong!
@@slimdude2011, I get it. I’m glad it was darker than the recent standard Blu-ray that was in the boxset. It’s hard to describe how ever so slightly I think it went just a tad too dark. It works pretty okay for me, because I have an OLED. But I think I would be pretty disappointed if my 4K wasn’t OLED. I SOMEWHAT struggled to see what was going on in a completely dark room with an OLED. That struggle would have been heightened on certain other 4K TVs.
This is lame and a waste of money, plain and simple. Why is Breakdown even in this set? It's not even a horror movie lol. Pretty packaging aside, this just feels like a mish mash of random films thrown together without any semblance of a theme and no matter how you try to justify this, it just doesnt work. Hard pass.
Then take them out of the main box, they are packed in individual cases inside the big box. 47 bucks comes out to around 11 dollars a movie. Sell the ones you don’t want. You’ll easily make your money back at that price point
Guys forget about the actual MOVIES themselves!? Who cares? When it’s got 4ks and pictures and cardboard! I want to buy this box set for that high you get when you get something in the mail, then put it on my shelf never to touch it again! Oh I’m so excited for the 20 seconds of dopamine rush I’ll get from opening the package! Then I’ll never watch the movies cus I didn’t care I just like to spend money on cardboard with useful stuff inside the cardboard like idk, movies, but I’m just interested in cardboard to sit on my shelf never to touch again! I’m so stoked for my 4k cardboard box! Oh wait, I’m already over it, I’m already looking at another overpriced box set of movies I’ll never watch but hey! The artwork is cool? I guess it’s worth it to someone not me but since it’s worth it to other people I’ll buy it.😂😂
Dude. Don’t buy it then. It’s a pretty good deal if you want the movies in 4k, the extra goodies makes it well worth it. Not even sure when you’re watching a physical media channel.
I ordered this box set, especially because they said WORLD WAR Z HAD THE DIRECTOR CUT ON 4K... And even though I have BREAKDOWN Blu-ray collector edition that is going for over $100.00 Friday the 13th part 2, which I want in a nice 4k box set... So finding out that WORLD WAR Z DIRECTOR CUT IS ONLY ON BLU-RAY AND NOT ON 4K... I HAVE WORLD WAR Z DIRECTOR CUT ON BLU-RAY WITH MY 3D OF WORLD WAR Z... I HEARD A LOT OF BAD THINGS ABOUT THE SCREAM FACTORY COPY OF WORLD WAR Z 4K AND THAT THIS 4K IS THE SAME COPY... SO I CANCELED MY PARAMOUNT SCARES VOLUME 2 YESTERDAY... VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT WORLD WAR Z DIRECTOR CUT WASN'T IN 4K...
Thank you for the offer But I refused to upgrade my tv into 4k like the monitor I'm staying with 1080p tv with my 1080p monitor That I bought this year and I avoided garbage 4k contact And also 4K TV's are trash. They make my regular blu-ray discs look like garbage Upscale
Not a fan of boxsets. Only ever 1 or 2 films worth owning. This would just waste space on my shelf. These are made for folks who want to own anything and everything. I’m not that type of collector.
Those gigantic boxsets are a waste of materials, and it takes up too much space. As soon as the impulse buying rush wears off, after the boxsets sits on the shelf for a couple of months, the buyers will sell them on ebay.

As an amateur movie enthusiast... Im loving these boxsets! Well priced as well. One of the main reasons I already have it preordered
Can you imagine if paramount kept making theses boxes and each one included a friday film from part 3 on
@@tshoffie9614 To be honest, I would much prefer them to do a Boxset with all 8 Paramount Friday films on 4K. That would be the ultimate.
Yep, sounds like they will do that just to keep you buying each set. Marketing 101.

The bad thing about box sets like this is that you might not like all of the movies.
actually a mystery title is fine as long as the price reflects as much.
I would totally buy Breakdown on 4K if it was a standalone!!!
Vol 1 and Vol 2 just went on sale for $47
Breakdown is scheduled to be released in 4K from Paramount next month in the U.S, and Orphan: First Kill is already released in 4K in the UK.
Breakdown is being released in England, NOT the US.
Hate those slip covers! I did notice that World War Z in Scares set has 7.1 audio while scream factory only has 5.1 audio. Strange?
not a no brainer for me, I usually buy box sets to SAVE space lol if they came out with a "slim" standard version, I would jump on it. I don't love any of those movies enough to have a big green box lol and the slipcovers are awful imo
Love that box, can’t wait to get it, thank you for the unboxing & review

It's worth buying even if you don't like the movies because you can sell it on a couple years for double that😂!
I probably would have gotten it but I have the Friday the 13th set from Scream Factory and I can’t see myself double dipping just to change formats.
Great deal for a set
I just want Friday the 13th part 2
