Tales from the Darkside (1990) 4K UHD (Collector's Edition)

[Law212]

This is amazing news. My mom bought me this one Christmas on VHS and I have loved it ever since. Going from the VHS to 4K will be amazing.

Open tat, open nat, open his eyes, open his eyes, open his eyes. Definitely day one, has to be one of my very first horror movies.

Too bad i didn't like this film, but the tv series is good. Too bad it has very poor DVD quality, even by DVD stadards. It could defnitley need a remaster.

[DaylightsEnd]

I'm thinking that Shout is the Jeepers Creepers franchise's only hope for seeing 4k releases, whether by box set or by individual titles. JC4 is just about the saddest attempt at amateur filmmaking that I've ever seen in a legit horror franchise, but I'd take the first three films in a heartbeat. Shout has already rolled in the stink of Parts 1 and 2 by releasing them on standard blu in the recent past, so I can't imagine they'd hesitate to drop the franchise in 4k uhd. Fingers crossed.

I remember Scream making a statement that had they known about Salva's history, those blu-rays wouldn’t have been released at all.

When Shout starts running out of horror titles to drop in 4k and fans keep asking them for the JC franchise in 4k, we'll just have to see if the money talks and the BS walks.

Yeah the third film is a hot mess but it's grown on me like a fungus, and the completionist in me still wants it on 4k. The fourth installment...not so much. Even the power of uhd couldn't compel me

Just give me the 1st 2 Jeepers Creepers, I couldn’t get through the 3rd.

Oh well. Shit happens. Thanks for the heads up.

[DenOfEarth]

I knew it would be coming since i heard rumors on twitter about a 4K as i sold my old set and will get this.

One of my favorite horror anthologies since i saw it in theaters at 9 years old as i grew up with the show.

Who thinks this movie is everything Creepshow 3 should had been instead of that horrible shitty 2006 in name only cash grab? afterall the show is a spinoff to Creepshow and same company.

I bet Debbie Harry and Rae Dawn Chong will look more gorgeous than ever in the new restoration.

This is the rare anthology film where all the stories are actually good. The gargoyle is my favorite, followed by the mummy. And the wraparound is awesome. I can watch this film countless times and never get bored.

I got the blu-ray they released before they announced this. It looks good. I will get this eventually. The picture of the monster on the cover always reminds me of stripe from GREMLINS...LOL

[plissken99]

Got my copy yesterday. Anyone checked this out?.. is it safe to open?

[sancho]

Is it safe to buy? Any Audio mix ups (per Night of the Demons), Scratches, or other usual SF screw ups?
