Believe me nothing is spoiled. My hype meters are going through the roof. Will still be worth waiting for the announcement to see the gorgeous Arte Originale they must have planned for us.

And there it is. Day ONE.

I know Synapse will also release the 4K like they did phenomena as they own the US rights.

I will buy the Arrow UK 4k so it goes with all the others as i did for Phenomena.

Heck yes. Arrowy so much sexier. I wish Suspiria was with them. It feels so much less and quaint.

I agree! if Arrow UK got the rights and took that transfer and made it with a deluxe box with poster and book I part with my Synapse 4k and buy Arrows.

Which means Diabolik won’t be carrying it as Synapse will ask them not to like they did with Phenomena.

Which means possibly dealing with stores that cannot package well.

Grindhouse Video and OrbitDVD will probably be carrying it. They both carried the Arrow and Synapse Phenomena 4k's.

I ordered the Phenomena original art edition direct from Arrow and will do the same with Tenebrae. This should be the final Argento UHD from them (barring a miracle) as Disney apparently has the original negative of Inferno in their possession now.

Yep, final for now, but in the future there's always the possibility of a Four Flies or Opera, whenever the rights expire from Shameless and Cult Films respectively.

[BluPat]

Oh wow! Awesome!

[GasmaskAvenger]

this will be mine.

not my fave Argento, but this has been screaming for a 4K remaster for several years now.

[RandomMovieFan]

Phenomena
Suspiria
The Bird with the Crystal Plumage
The Cat o' Nine Tails
Tenebrae
Deep red paint

[leoganzi]

The Arte Originale Edition will be mine!

[JohnCarpenterLives]

I have Hi-Def Ninja's Black Label editions for Suspiria, Tenebrae, and Phenomena. I should sell them but they're such nice editions and I'd really want to keep Suspiria no matter what.
Another double-dip for a complete Arte Originale collection without selling my old blurays

fav argento. i saw a print of this when they did a retrospective for at the metrograph in new york city in late 2018, and i think with the exception of inferno, i think the current blu rays are pretty great.

inferno is the one i think would probably benefit the most from a new scan for uhd.

that being said, the suspiria 4k is probably the best uhd i’ve noticed personally.

just don’t know if it is going to be a huge difference. the color palette is kind of drab in comparison to suspiria and inferno. i’ll probably cave on this, but not until one of those barnes and nobles sales.
