UK release of Halloween 1-5 in 4K? - Blu-ray Forum

The Fat Fish · 08-21-2021, 07:21 PM

Hi all,

Do you think there is likely to be a UK release of the 4K versions of Halloween 1-5 similar to the Scream Factory releases in America? I'd like to compare the transfers of the first film and really want to own the others too. I know its possible to import as they are region free but I would assume they are big enough titles to get released by another label here in the UK?

If they do you can guarantee they'll miss the original audio on them.

The sequels haven't been treated well in the UK on Blu-ray let alone a 4K release. With 2 and 3 not even getting releases! Probably best to import to be honest.

The UK discs should be released by Arrow Video, Funimation UK or even BFI Video.

It's genuinely shocking how 2 and 3 have been treated in the UK.

Yep, the first film has had many re releases and 2 and 3 have been just forgotten about.

I guess it just depends on who has the rights to the films here in the UK.
