Coming soon from Umbrella. I’ve just ordered for shipping to UK. Kong 76 in 4k, now this. Nice.

Nice! There also a possibility that Shout Factory releases this as well considering they have the digital rights that can be had on ITunes movies…..

Another webstore exclusive, hoping someone else releases it elsewhere

I hope Umbrella can release some other films from the DEG library, most notably Bruce Beresford's Crimes of the Heart (1986).

The Spanish Blu Ray visual presentation is excellent but the first 15 minutes or so is out of synch and the Spanish subtitles cannot be removed.

That video essay on the director is not marked as new, but it wasn't on any previous release, right?

There seems to be a dot too much, I suspect John Guillermin lives is the video essay?

Anyway - preordered this infamous classic from the author of the war of art!

Picked mine up on Saturday - couple of decent extras and the world's shortest trailer, good set of production notes on the inner sleeve.
