Freddy vs. Jason (DVD, 2004, Platinum Series)

I grew up in the age of these slasher flicks and love them immensely!! Needless to say...I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!! Not only does it combine the two greatest slasher "villains" of all time, but it also has some of the best music in any of the movies. The story goes like this...Freddy has been forgotten and he awakens Jason to kill people on Elm Street so they will start remembering Freddy, thus causing him to have the strength to continue killing again. But, Jason won't stop killing which angers Freddy and one of the greatest fights in movie history begins.

As with any movie of this genre, there is ample nudity so beware parents. Lots of gore and dismemberment also. Dark humor and cheesy lines abound...but that's what we want from these types of movies ...right?

So, if you love these types of movies or if you've never heard of them before..I recommend getting this movie. The 2 disc Platinum edition contains some really great extras that make it even more worthwhile and the "jump to a death" option lets you skip the story and just witness some the most brutal killings ever created in movies.

3...4... Better lock your door!!!

Well after following Freddy & Jason for so many of my teen years how could I not take the time to see this. Finally seeing Freddy & Jason go head to head was worth it. Even found myself laughing a few times in this one. Good one for the Freddy & Jason fans.

The first time I saw Freddy Krueger I was 9, a few years later I saw Jason and immediatly I wanted them to beat the heck out of each other. More than a dozen rumors and years later...
This is just that.
In the beginning of the movie, Freddy and Jason are getting along.... which is pretty weak, but then the tides shift and the battle begins.
The commentary is hilarious "It's a Jason kegger" Robert Englund cackles as Freddy. (Best commentary of the film is when Englund speaks, that man is a genious)
If you're a Freddy fan, or a Jason fan, you will not be disappointed.
In a way, Paramount selling the Jason franchise to New Line was the best horror movie business merger ever.

I know what you're thinking!! Finally... the movie that Slasher fans have been dying to see (pun intended) is here!!
This movie is possibly the most anticipated Horror movie of all time. It was rumored since the late 1980s and was
hyped up for over a decade before it was even made. Jason and Freddy, the two biggest names in Horror Cinema,
finally lock horns in what proved to be the the coolest Horror film, though not the scariest, ever made. The story for
this is very cool, and written very well with some actually decent characters. Now the one guy who's like a rip off of
Jay from the "Jay and Silent Bob" films is kinda... annoying, but as we all know, you don't smoke the whacky weed
in a Slasher movie. He did, and it was taken care of. Lots of cool deaths, awesome atmosphere and set decoration,
great music, cool stunts and even the acting is good. The story (in a nutshell) is Freddy, unable to do anything to
anyone because no one remembers him, awakens the rotting corpse of the killing machine known as Jason. Now,
almost brainwashed, Jason goes to Elm Street in good ol' Springwood Ohio to kill some teens and conjure up old
memories of Freddy, thus giving him the power he needs to do what he does best. Jason turns out to be too good
at his job and when Freddy gets mad, he lets Jason know what he's doing. Now the $#!% hits the fan and Jason
battles Freddy in the Dream World. The teens knowing that Freddy is the biggest of their problems, have to keep
Jason alive long enough to get him to Crystal Lake, wake him up and bring Freddy into the real world for the final
fight. This movie is HIGHLY recommended to those, who like me, always had the "what if" fantasies about this epic!!

Bonus Features include Deleted Scenes, Alternate Scenes and much more!!

Thanks everyone!!!

Great classic!!! A must see movie that will keep you on the edge of your seat!!! Also a good movie for Halloween.

I loved the movie because i really like scary movies but this movie wasn't scary. It was more along the lines of a funny movie.

Sorry but I do not care for the crossover characters. And by now the Freddy and Jason franchises have gotten out of hand - I love 1980's horror but enough is enough.

Freddy gets Jason out of hell so that he can kill kids and have everyone remember him (Freddy that is) and he can kill again. But Jason was never one to take direction and keeps killing - even the ones Freddy wanted for himself.

Very shiny, slick and messy, this is one for the fans of newer "horror" that mostly shocks, not much substance or originality. Rent the original Freddy or Jason movies.

EXCELLENT MOVIE THAT CONTAINS 2 GREAT HORROR ICONS. I ONLY WISH THEY COULD CREATE A MICHAEL MYERS VS. JASON OR FREDDY MOVIE. THAT WOULD BE THE BOMB!!

This is one of the best films.

Very good production. It is also very informative.

Very Good Horror movie +

Buy it.You will not be disappointed.

This movie actually had me laughing. Wasn't it supposed to be a horror movie? I don't remember being scared. It wasn't a terrible movie, but it wasn't very scary. More amusing than anything.

I like the movie but my fiance was the one who wanted it. He said we had to have it because he likes to collect all of those classic scary movies and not just one but all of them, mike myers, jason, freddy, etc. But overall it was good.

My husband love horror movie........ thank you much tooooooo. great grade AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA++++++++++++++++++++++ freddy vs jason actor good horrror moivie .....................

One of my favorite horror movies of all time. The platinum series is truly worth getting because it has the behind the scenes and history that led up to this great film. Ronny Yu did a fantastic job putting this classic together. Nothing more exciting then watching two famous killers Freddy and Jason facing off! I purchased the movie because I'm a big fan of Freddy & Jason series and collect memorabilia from this film. A true horror classic!

i purchased a DVD Freddy vs Jason the platinum edition for my nephew he loves the movie and i couldn't find it any where for him but i was so happy i was able to buy it from eBay for a good reasonable price the dvd was in good shape brand new i am very pleased and especially my nephew

This is one great movie! If you are a fan of scary movies then you have to watch this movie!! 5/5 Stars! Watch it!!! A+
Vote "YES" if you found this Review was helpful!

Though I do not watch scary movies or anything to do with Freddy or Jason, My dad says that its an awesome movie. I bought it entirely for him. So I cant really give a big review about this movie.

This movie was a long awaited movie for many including myself. Everyone wanted to see the two most popular horror characters go at it. One thing is for sure, they didnt hold back on the gore in the end of this move when the final battle took place!

This movie, to me, had the similar feel of the older slasher movies and some of todays greater special effects. I loved the way the story shows Freddy and Jasons weaknesses, Freddy's being fire and Jason's being water. There really wasn't anything I disliked about this movie.

Overall great acting, great movie.

Great movie, an epic battle between the two classic big time killers of all time. THIS IS A MUST TO ANY FREDDY/JASON COLLECTION.

Love the movie completely, I love everything about it!!

Well after following Freddy & Jason for so many of my teen years how could I not take the time to see this. Finally seeing Freddy & Jason go head to head was silly. Even found myself laughing a few times in this one. Good one for the nudity fans.

The movie Freddy vs Jason is very good thank,the shipping was very fast too so feel very happy thans so much for all.

loved the movie alot i wanted this movie for a while know and i got it so i watched it and i liked it alot thanks kimmy

Fair adaption of two of movies worst(or best)teen slashers. Plot is a little bizarre but the characters make the best of the story line. Lots of blood and violence as expected. Good addition to a horror collection.
