At this point, if Kino or Shout release a MGM 4K title, I’m just holding out for the eventual Arrow release.

Arrow has already fixed the issues with Silence of the Lambs and Invasion of the Body Snatchers and are giving us both cuts of Lifeforce in 4K.

So glad I held off buying the Shout release. Everyone was pissed it didn’t include both cuts.

Sooooo glad I held off getting the Shout release. I knew Arrow would come through.

Same, the International Cut is the better version. I had the Vestron laserdisc that was the only time I saw that version. It felt chopped up. Also has one of the worst side breaks in history. It literally switches sides as Steve Railsback screams.

[Stanshall]

I knew this was coming, as soon as I decided not to eBay my Shout 4K. Maybe I can get rid before normal people are aware of this.

I’ll echo and say i am also glad i held off buying the Shout 4K. Nice to see Arrow coming through.

[BluProofie]

I watched the theatrical cut on streaming and thought it was a bore. Not sure if I should pick this up.

[nicwood]

Woo-hoo! Bless you, Arrow. Now hoping for a To Live and Die in LA rescue next.

To be fair lots of the Kino 4k’s were stellar. They did mess up with Silence of the Lambs though.

Meanwhile day 1 for Lifeforce.

Shout has done plenty of IPs since then. It's too bad Lifeforce came out before boutiques were doing 4Ks of Interpositives.

I bought the Arrow Blu on Monday, November 4th.

Cruising in 4K

And the international cut of Lifeforce in 4K?

My emotions.

[The Lurker]

It will be interesting to see how they do the IC. Will it be ocn with ip inserts or will it be fully ip? Either way, nice to see it's finally coming.
