The Funhouse 4K UHD (1981) (Collector's Edition) - Blu-ray Forum

DR Herbert West · 04-04-2022, 09:31 AM

Quote:

director tobe hooper (the texas chain saw massacre, lifeforce) pays affectionate tribute to various classic horror movies in this tale of two teenage couples who spend the night in a sleazy carnival funhouse.

On her first date with buzz (cooper huckabee, true blood), amy (elizabeth berridge, amadeus) disobeys her father and goes to the carnival with richie (miles chapin, hair) and liz (largo woodruff, the ladies club) ... But their first date may end up as their last. After witnessing a murder, the four terrified teens are trapped in the maze of the funhouse and stalked by a real monster: A horribly deformed killer who lurks among the freakish exhibits to butcher them one by one! Also starring sylvia miles (midnight cowboy) and kevin conway (invincible) in three roles, the funhouse features special makeup designs by the ingenious rick baker (an american werewolf in london, ed wood).

Take my money! This is Hooper's best alongside TCM, Poltergeist, and Lifeforce.

Tobe Hooper in 4K. I’m in.

Matt89 · 04-04-2022, 11:55 AM

Hell yes. I have the Arrow blu-ray (which holds up quite well) so this should make for a nice UHD.

I've never seen Lifeforce. Have had the Arrow Blu for some time, just never had the werewithal to spin it. Now I have an excuse

(to see if a double dip is worth it).

Nice I like this one it's always been a strange childhood favorite of mine.

Resident Evil Labs · 04-04-2022, 04:42 PM

I'm really hoping Scream puts out these on 4k soon:
Night Of The Demons
Pumpkinhead
Night Of The Comet
Return Of The Living Dead
Dolls
From Beyond

I would've preordered this direct from Shout to get it early but I think Best Buy has been shipping stuff out earlier. I always see people reporting that they've gotten stuff as early as the Saturday before street date.
