Thanks for your help.

Well i'm a big
F13 fan so i would say buy both the
FCLTM box set and deluxe eds.
I think the former
may have some extras over the latter but i'm not 100% sure as it's been years since i watched the box set.
Imo both editions are worth owning if you're really into the exploits of Jason Voorhees. But then again i'm a bit of a completist!
I think the R2 sp. ed. of part
2 is the same as the U.S. DVD (in terms of version and extras) but i would avoid the U.K. release of part
3 as it lacks the 3D print of the film present in both the R1 Blu-Ray and DVD editions. The later sequels are also no-frills fiascos in British stores whereas the American equivalents boast fresh sets of bonus material.
I would probably recommend grabbing the R2 DVDs of the original
F13 and it's immediate follow-up. But definitely stick with R1 for the recent deluxe ed. of the first
F13 and all subsequent entries after part
2. They may cost more than £3 but they're better releases.
I tend to buy my fave terror titles online from the usual suspects (Amazon, Play, Ebay etc.). After all the DVDs you want are only a mouse click away!
Hope this helps.
