Sidekicks (1992) coming to Blu

[JoelGoodsen]

Dreams can come true!

I’ve mentioned this favourite of mine tons of times on the forum and always hoped, but never believed, that we would get a solid on disc release.

Until now…..

Sidekicks is finally coming to 4K and/or Blu Ray

Just been doing some digging and came across this on the Gorilla Pictures website. They are advertising Sidekicks as now being in 4K UHD to celebrate the movies 30th anniversary!!

Although no official date has been given for a 4K or Blu, it’s obvious that one is coming. Based on it being for the 30th anniversary, we should be hearing an announcement in the coming weeks.

I’ve added the link to the new HD trailer below, which comes up with a Samuel Goldwyn films logo at the start. I’ve checked and MGM owned all media rights in 2018 and now Gorilla Pictures own all media rights since 2020 according to IMDB.

Gorilla Pictures also own all media rights to Red Sun Rising, which has just been announced by VS. You will also notice on the website that there is info and a trailer for Whatever It Takes, which was also released by Vinegar Syndrome not too long back. So basically, I am 99% sure that Vinegar Syndrome will be releasing this.

As a bonus, the Cynthia Rothrock flick Sworn To Justice is also now owned by Gorilla Pictures, so I would also expect a Blu of that one soon.

I’m used to watching this on VHS, but I think we can all agree that the new scan is a revelation based on the trailer.

Keep your eyes peeled for an official announcement
