I kid you not, I was just thinking last night about how terrible the Universal Blu-ray looks and was wondering when Scream Factory was going to pick this one up. Well, now I see Arrow has snagged it. Close enough! Can't wait to get it!

This is a weird brag. It's like saying, "your architect is the same guy who changed your tires. Isn't that awesome?"

Regardless, this is good news for the film. It sorely needed an upgrade from the Universal edition.
