[MifuneFan]

Shudder / IFC Films will be releasing When Evil Lurks (Cuando acecha la maldad) (2023) on 4K on June 3rd!

Update:Second Sight will also be releasing it in 4K on July 28th, and their release will have HDR/Dolby Vision, and several extras. I recommend choose their release over this US one.

When the residents of a small rural town discover that a demon is about to be born among them, they desperately try to escape, but it may be too late.

Sweet. I admit I still need to finish watching the blu ray, but I enjoyed what I saw enough to scoop this for my 4k collection.

Nice, hopefully Arrow can do a 4K release over here. Besides IFC has not released anything on 4K Blu-ray in the US yet.

Really, really tired of these delayed 4K UHD releases.

Bought the regular Blu-ray last year for my Halloween marathon. While I liked the film, I have no desire to upgrade yet another disc.

That said, if you don't own this yet, check it out!

Really good and brutal film. Day one.

I recently bought the blu as well, but I'll be picking this up for sure. Incredible movie. Really hoping Terrified gets a 4K release, too.

Just noticed this is up at Target for just $23.99, plus it qualifies for their current B2G1 sale

Amazingly underrated film.

aaaaand its listed as a steelbook. so now we dont just have to wait for a 4k we have to keep waiting once they put one out for a real case too. what a time to be alive.

I think I liked this one enough to add to the collection. I liked the change-up and variety (despite possession being a tired subject). However, I was quite confused about the rules, and when they seemingly do and do not apply.

[TripleHBK]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but these indie 4k releases don't have the best track record when it comes to 4k and HDR implementation. Before pre-ordering you may want to wait for initial reviews or more images to come in of the back cover to verify that it has an HDR grade included if such a thing is important to you.

If I were to bet, I'd wager on the side of this being in 4k but SDR. I hope to be proven wrong as it is a title I'd have no problem upgrading, but I need confirmation that such a doubledip will be worth my while first.

There's no mention of HDR/DV on the back

I’m going to import this. Sick of waiting for a U.K. release. It will probably be next year if Arrow do ever get hold of this anyway.

[Steedeel]

Apparently not, the disc cannot be shopped to my address from Amazon.USA

Just a heads-up, Second Sight will eventually be doing a release of their own. I just spotted a BBFC entry for the film submitted by them.

I love this movie... up until the last 3 minutes. Still, I wasn't gonna bite on the 4k, but at that price I grabbed it.
