They Live 4K UHD (1988)

[VikingHead2000]

I agree. The original mono not being offered was definitely a letdown, but I overlooked it, but when I heard that sped up audio, I was deflated. I didn’t even bother to watch it after that. I’m really hoping that SF can correct those issues, that’s if they do get the rights from SC to there own version. We’ll just have to see what comes along in the next few months, but I’m confident that they do it right.

Maybe it's time to ditch my Studio Canal boxset for this one.

I finally broke down and bought the BD this summer. Guess I should have waited a couple months longer. You're welcome, everyone!

The Keith David figure is...interesting.

so ur saying with Region A the movie works only with commentary on the disc or the movie (with and w/out commentary)

asking cuz my region free stopped playing region b, but plays region 2

I already have They Live in 4K UHD from the UK, I might purchase the Shout factory as well and give my UK copy to my youngest son waiting for reviews. Hopefully Kino will release EFNY my favorite Carpenter film.

If talking about They Live SC 4K, the BD of the feature works in A but the extras disc will not.

SacredBones also has their own edition with two different vinyl pressings and a much more limited quality.

There's a similar boxset with the Blu of Big Trouble in Little China & a purple slipboxed vinyl, on sale for $40:

If you don't already have EFNY it's available in 4K UHD in the UK, Why wait when can import it.

Badass, Scream Factory made it's first UHD 4K! i don't have the UK import UHD 4K but one of my friends does as i saw it at his place and look fantastic. Hope this imports the same restoration from the UK Studio Canal UHD 4K like The Thing 3-disc limited edition steelbook imported the UK Arrow BD 4K restoration blu.

Hope they do The Thing, Demolition Man UHD Collector's Edition, Child's Play 2 and 3, and all next.

[Rizor]

I own the UK Studio canal release and I don't love the movie enough to double dip, but it's cool this is getting released here nevertheless.

Halloween 3 & Day of the Dead

odd choice for sure, it should have been Roddy or an alien... so is the black box really to hold the record?... it says the record is held by a slip that is pictured so I'm confused... if it's a box to hold everything I'll buy it on that alone, the art looks badass

Hoping at some point someone will do a shot-for-shot stop motion animation remake of the fight between David and Piper.

Gotta be. I'll chalk my Sacred Bones b&w preorder up to a scalp if it isn't.

[RestlessEye]

Went with the bubblegum vinyl set minus the action figure.

[Analogkid]

This really irks me. The UK gets Dolby Vision but the US gets Dolby Atmos. Can't we get it right the first time. This kinda stuff just takes the fun out of collecting.
