I was so impressed with the 3D blu of 'Creature From The Black Lagoon' that I am hoping to see its sequel get a release as well? Maybe as part of a Universal Classic Monsters Collection Vol. II ?? Anybody hear anything? Thanks to all responses!

September 5, 2018
Universal Pictures Home Entertainment (UPHE) has identified a manufacturing issue which may affect the presentation of the 3D Blu-ray offering of the film Revenge of the Creature, released on August 28 , 2018 as part of the Universal Classic Monsters: Complete 30-Film Collection and the Creature From the Black Lagoon Complete Legacy Collection. The issue is isolated to this particular film and does not affect any other discs in the collections. UPHE’s goal is to always deliver the best possible product to its consumers. To that end, a replacement program is being established to ensure that those who have purchased either collection have the opportunity to receive a corrected Blu-ray disc featuring the 3D version of Revenge of the Creature and 2D version of The Creature Walks Among Us, should they encounter the issue. To receive an updated disc, please email USHEConsumerRelations@visionmediamgmt.com. |
Update: The US replacement disc fixes the issue with the 3D version but the 2D version has received some criticism to the extent that Koch *apparently* used the other eye on their release in Germany. They also put the film on its own disc, rather than paired up with
The Creature Walks Among Us as it is on Universal's US release. The UK edition is the same as the corrected American edition, with the sequels together on one disc.
In all editions, disc 1 is Universal's
The Creature From The Black Lagoon exactly as previously released on 3D Blu-ray. The same goes for the disc in the 30-film set.
There is currently no standalone 3D Blu-ray release of
Revenge Of The Creature, only a full-frame anaglyph version:
