Someone already spotted that it's the documentary 'Life After Flash'. So that's 1x UHD, 3x BD for 1080p presentation, bonus features and LAF, and one CD for the Queen soundtrack.

David M confirmed that he’s encoding this one.

Do we know if it has the Brian Blessed comentary?

Raphdude · 05-06-2020, 10:10 PM

I sure hope Brian Blessed's commentary from one of the anniversary dvd's carries over!"

dressedtokill · 05-06-2020, 10:30 PM

This looks like a terrific package. I've never seen this film, but I do like over the top/ campy films. Any chance I might enjoy it? Worth blind buying? Opinions, please!

Yes. Watch the trailer at the top of the thread. It's delightful.

The sight of Ornella Muti as Princess Aura in 4K UHD resolution will be the gift from the heavens that we mortal humans do not deserve, but are somehow inexplicably receiving anyway.

Mayhaps 2020 is not such a bad year for the world after all.

Hoping for a DiabolikDVD pre-order soon!

Has it been “officially” announced?

SGB · 05-07-2020, 03:22 AM

Holy hell, the remaster looks fantastic. Definitely looking forward to getting the UHD. Haven't seen the film in a long time, so it'll be fun revisiting it.

Hedji · 05-07-2020, 04:06 AM

Do we know edition size for this? Will it be as limited as the Carpenter deluxe sets?

Scottishguy · 05-07-2020, 04:25 AM

All these UHDs this year, and all these editions.

Katatonia · 05-07-2020, 04:25 AM

With both Flash and RAD out in 4K, maybe 2020 won't be such a turd of a year after all. The eighties to the rescue!

It's a StudioCanal set, so it will be bigger in size. Judging from the look of the mockup artwork, it looks even thicker than most of their previous 4K limited sets.

I don't believe they ever state how "limited" these are. But they can disappear quite fast when stock does run out, so I wouldn't waste time pre-ordering it.

Trailer not official enough?

I would take the wood beast test to get a region A of this release. It looks like it's going to be sensational but I doubt Flash would get this good of a release over here.
