United Kingdom Your Top 5 Arrow Video Blu-Rays

So in your collection what are your favourite Arrow releases?

In mine I'd go for:

1 - Day of the Dead - love the movie, some great extras on it too
2 - Dawn of the Dead - may look better than Day but extras aren't quite as good, still a great film
3 - The Funhouse - One of the better slashers of the period
4 - Zombie Flesh Eaters - A great zombie film, I love the Romero to Rome documentary
5 - King of New York - Christopher Walken is the man!

Not as good no. Its fun. The film is saved by the fact the pimp from the first film reprises his role as a gym teacher. He makes no effort to divert from his pimp voice though.

does it justify going for the steel book with less special features than the cheaper single release of Demons?

Hmmmm. I personally think the steelbook looks great but others disagree. Demons 2 I watched once since I got it. I watched Demons three times. Go figure. I am sucker for the steelbooks though.

There's £2 difference between just Demons and the steelbook
I can't decide!

Just Funhouse for me, although I will be buying the upcoming Bavas. If we're counting Academy releases, I also have Miracle in Milan. On DVD, I own the two Chabrol sets and the Rohmer and Meyer boxes.

This is strictly BD
I have the Meyer box, must admit I do enjoy Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!

You should watch it, it's fantastic and then watch it again with the David Warbeck & Catriona MacColl commentary.

Mine I'd have to say in no order.

Riffi
Departures
The Beyond
Inferno
Ashes & Diamonds

Only reason I haven't picked Dawn of the Dead is because it doesn't have the extended version on blu.

Zombie Flesh Eaters - I dont care about 6 seconds, it's the best the film has ever looked, with a fantastic set of extras
Forbidden Zone - Fantastic film and transfer
The Beyond - Superb transfer and extras
Demons - Bit light on the extras, but fantastic transfer
King Of New York - Awesome movie, great set and steel

I went with Blue Underground for Inferno and Deep Red. Having compared both I personally feel the image looks better. I know some disagree.
