Incredible Shrinking Man distribution rights? - Blu-ray Forum

gaucho · 09-21-2019, 04:29 PM

Who owns the distribution rights in North America for this film? I thought Shout Factory would be the likely choice since they've released (nearly) all the other Universal sci-fi films from the 50's. However, as time goes by this seems less likely. Too bad that what many consider to be one of Universal's finest films from that era has not been granted a blu ray release in the country where it was produced.

Universal, and they've recently given it a new restoration, so surely it will be coming to Blu soon - if not from themselves, then either Arrow, Scream Factory or Criterion.

Thanks for chiming in BarnDoor. I'll certainly look forward to any future announcement.

It's been "rumored to be with Criterion" for some time, but so have a bunch of other unreleased titles. Criterion themselves have never confirmed it, to my knowledge.

I ask Kino Lorber One Time The Incredible Shrinking Man, but They Say Rumor a coming Criterion does Still Have Universal More Film Come Out Soon! I don't Think so Scream Doesn't Working Out That. Maybe Kino Lorber or Arrow Video sure perfect work out.

The UK Arrow release is just fine for me.
