So how exactly was all of this footage unearthed? In a Facebook post by bonus content producer Samuelson Studios, owner Edwin Samuelson recounts the events that led to the discovery of the missing footage. Playing a hunch, Samuelson contacted F13 Part 2 FX artist Carl Fullerton, who had reportedly showed the uncut footage to fellow FX legend Greg Nicotero. Indeed, it turned out that Fullerton was in possession of the footage, all saved to a nearly four decade old VHS tape. This revelation was followed by a coordinated effort to retrieve the precious clips, with Samuelson, F13 Part 2 actor Bill Randolph, Samuelson’s co-producer and Crystal Lake Memories author Peter Bracke, and Scream Factory’s Cliff MacMillan and Jeff Nelson all lending a hand to shepherd the footage along to its safe transfer to digital. There’s far more to the process than that (including the videotape being baked!), so make certain to hit that link and check out a pretty fascinating story. In addition to this adventure, Samuelson notes that “several minutes” were originally trimmed from the film, so it’s possible that we’ll see even more footage than we could hope to expect based on the previous reports. I don’t know about the rest of you, but October 13th can’t get here soon enough.Movie title: "Playboy: Inside Out 1" (1991) In any case, no matter its condition, the length of the scenes, or the ultimate contents therein, what’s certain is that this unearthed footage will be absolutely essential viewing for Friday fans, and is surely the cherry on top of an already exemplary-looking set.
