Can anyone confirm or deny whether the fifth disc is Region B/unplayable in Region A players?

Okay, I just tested the special features disc on two separate players set to Region A, and it worked without issue on both of them. Just to be sure, I popped in one of the uncorrected discs in both players, and that one did pop up an "incorrect region" error message. So it looks like the special features disc didn't need a replacement.

Thanks so much for serving as proverbial guinea pig and testing this release! I must say that I'm legitimately shocked that the fifth disc is, I guess, all-region, and that Arrow actually sent the correct number of replacement discs.

Glad I could help! Given the absolute cluster**k around the Coffin Joe set, I was pretty much anticipating the worst with this too. So despite the delayed release date, I can't complain too much.

In my previous post I considered referencing my PTSD from attempting to acquire a replacement Coffin Joe disc from Arrow, and fearing a repeat with this Memento Mori set, but I didn't want to inadvertently send anyone else into a similar spiral of latent grief.

Finally arrived today, with the outer box looking like it had been beaten with a baseball bat. Appropriate, I guess.
Everything inside was somehow still in perfect condition, despite the best efforts of the Memphis postal hub.

Got my US copy in!

Compliments the old Arrow UK sets with the OST CDs perfectly (which i'll still hang onto, but i'm glad to now have Region A friendly copies of their excellent blu-ray discs of these films now).
