Editorial Reviews

For more than thirty years, FRIDAY THE 13TH has proven to be as unstoppable at the box office as its hockey-masked villain JASON VOORHEES, having spawned twelve feature films (and counting!), a syndicated television series and an extensive line of books, merchandise and collectibles. For its creators, FRIDAY THE 13TH has been anything but "bad luck," generating nearly $600 million in domestic box office receipts and turning an unstoppable, machete-wielding madman into a true pop-culture icon. Inspired by the critically-acclaimed book, CRYSTAL LAKE MEMORIES: THE COMPLETE HISTORY OF FRIDAY THE 13TH takes viewers behind the mask on an epic journey into the making of the landmark horror franchise -- from its humble beginnings in 1980 at a New Jersey summer camp to the blockbuster release of its 2009 "reboot." Combining hundreds of rare and never-before-seen photographs, film clips, outtakes, archival documents, conceptual art and behind-the-scenes footage, and featuring interviews with more than 150 cast and crew members spanning all twelve films and the television series, CRYSTAL LAKE MEMORIES is the ultimate tribute to one of horror's most iconic and enduring franchises.
Bonus Features:
  • Trailers
  • Filmmaker Commentary
  • English and Spanish Subtitles
  • 2 Blu-ray and 2 DVD disc combo pack

5.0 out of 5 stars There is no CONFUSION September 16, 2013
There is, in fact, a 5th disc that is ONLY available when directly ordered through 1428 Films. So there shouldn't be any confusion here. You don't get the 5th disc with the bonus interviews unless ordering directly from 1428 Films.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Documentary for Friday the 13th Fans! September 1, 2013
This 4-disc (2 BD & 2 DVD) combo pack showcases the extensive retrospective F13 documentary which runs almost 7 hours (400 minutes). It is almost 3 hours longer than Never Sleep Again (of course there are more films in the F13 franchise). Corey Feldman (star of Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter) narrates Crystal Lake Memories, which features interviews with approximately 150 cast and crew members from all twelve Friday the 13th films and the syndicated television series, many of whom have never before appeared in on-camera interviews. Interview subjects include Kane Hodder, Robert Englund, Tom Savini, Danielle Panabaker, Sean S. Cunningham, Derek Mears, Betsy Palmer, Wes Craven, Robert Shaye, Alice Cooper and many more. Crystal Lake Memories is written and directed by Daniel Farrands and produced by Thommy Hutson (Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy). The focus is mainly on the films. Merchandise such as novels, comic books, and memorabilia don't play a large role. There are some bonus features like the Filmmaker Commentary and Trailers (English and Spanish Subtitles are also provided). The film runs in chronological order from the original F13 to the reboot with each film getting roughly 35 minutes of treatment. The TV series gets 10 minutes of coverage. At the end of each chapter there is a brief memorial for the people who have since passed away (there are more than I expected). Old stories about the first three films are mostly rehashed. The score and music are so much better than His Name Was Jason but the official Harry Manfredini track is not used. Notably, he blended F13 scores along with Halloween and Psycho 2 scores for this documentary. Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars Must own! September 17, 2013
Just binge-watched the entire almost 7 hour documentary and loved it! Truly does the series justice and really appreciate the time and effort that went into it. Make sure to buy it from crystallakememories.net to get the 5th bonus disk (4+ hours of extra content) as it's absolutely worth it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great in-depth documentary! September 22, 2013
As a long time fan, it was only natural for me to pick this up. The book was great, so of course this comes as a great companion. Its not perfect by any means, it can never be the "complete" history of Friday the 13th, but it does have amazing insights from many of those who were involved with the franchise.

First, I must mention that the documentary, "His Name Was Jason" was saddening. I was truly disappointed by how goofy it was with its loud and silly background music, interviews from people I don't care about (fanboys and hipsters who run websites), and by how it seemed to make a joke of the series. Then, these guys create "Never Sleep Again", disappointing me more since it seemed they took Nightmare much more serious than Friday the 13th.

But then we get Crystal Lake Memories, which of course, blows both documentaries away. I have watched this 7 hour long documentary twice (once with commentary) and also watched the 4 hour bonus disc that came with the set if you pre-ordered from the Crystal Lake Memories website.

The documentary interviews over 150 people. Some interviews were shot for the His Name is Jason doc, but they were clever in trying to not use the same cuts from His Name is Jason. We get interviews this time around from people you'd never imagine you'd ever see again.

For me, the true star of the doc is Frank Mancuso Jr., who has never gone on camera to talk about the franchise. During the Paramount era, he was the guy behind the curtain, running this franchise as the producer. I always wondered about the man that made many of these films possible so its great to hear him reflect on his years with the franchise.

The commentary was very very insightful.

5.0 out of 5 stars AMAZING DOCUMENTARY! September 16, 2013
By ED-209
What else would you expect from the team who brought you 'Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy'???? Well worth the money! And if you buy from crystallakememories.net you get a bonus disc with OVER FOUR HOURS of extended interviews that you can't get anywhere else!!!

And really great stuff on 'Friday the 13th: A New Beginning', which is easily the best out of the entire series (beating 'The Final Chapter' only by a smidge). Buy a couple boxes of candy bars and enjoy this beast of a documentary!

By Adam
Amazon Verified Purchase
This documentary is amazing way better than his name was Jason. Lots more new interviews than the old stuff yes it has some stuff we have already seen but who cares the new stuff is great. And my fav was seeing dana kimmell from part 3. DVD has more actors and actress's from past friday movies like part 6 hottie Jennifer cooke and thom Matthews.this doc just has so much more insight on the movies with lots of behind the scenes stills. Took me almost all day watching but what a great day. R.I.P Richard Brooker

4.0 out of 5 stars A Must Own!
Great Doc every Friday fan must own, but many of the stories and interviews were already featured in other forms of media. It is a nice addition to the collection.
