Pretty good sequel

Verified Purchase:Yes
An excellent transfer of a pretty good sequel. Forgetting that sharks don't hold grudges, if you think of the shark as Michael or Jason, it works fairly well. The film looks amazing in 4k.
I'm glad the extras have been included. They really enhance the viewing. I enjoy this film, the next - not so much. Pick this one up and enjoy it for what it is.
Highlighted scene - shark kills a helicopter.

You don't want to Escape this 4k

Shout Factory has done it again with this 4k release of John Carpenter's classic starring Kurt Russell.
Such a good looking disc for such a low budget entry. All of the prior extras from the blu-ray special edition are found on the included blu-ray.
A great disc set, another winner from Shout's Scream Factory line.

Solid player

My Panasonic UB420-K died after 3 and 1/2 years. Every time I tried to play a disc, got a could not read error. So I began searching for a new player. My research led to this Sony. I read all of the info concerning freezing and other issues. I realize that there are risks inherent in any technology purchase. So, I looked around and found an open box buy for this player attremendous savings. I pulled the trigger and received this yesterday. I tried all of the discs that were unreadable on the Panasonic and they played and looked amazing.
I realize that I have only had this player a couple of days, but so far I am extremely happy with this purchase. I can't believe how quiet this is compared to the 420. Dolby Vision is excellent, the upscale quality is superb. I believe that I have found a fine machine that will provide many hours of viewing pleasure.
An obvious recommendation.

Written and directed by InchAlienInch scripter Dan O'Bannon, this ghoulish shocker serves up heaping helpings of gory terror and camp humor. A toxic gas re-animates a dead body which, once it's remains are burned, creates acid rain that turns a cemetery full of corpses into monstrous zombies with (in the first film to feature it) a taste for human brains. Thom Matthews, James Karen, Clu Gulager, and Linnea Quigley star. 91 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English; Subtitles English. Three-disc set.

Still Funny

Shout Factory comes through again. I believe this was the first "Living Dead" film I viewed. I have a very soft spot for these wacky, talking zombies. Who doesn't enjoy the request, "Send more paramedics!". Such a great blending of horror and comedy. 4k is the way to watch this and the extras are superb.

The 16th-century Japan of Kurosawa's InchSeven SamuraiInch is transposed to the American Old West in this classic crowd favorite directed by John Sturges. Yul Brynner stars as gunslinger Chris Adams, who, at the request of beleaguered Mexican peasants, recruits and trains a band of fellow mercenaries (including Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson, James Coburn, and Robert Vaughn) to defend their town from the repeated raids of bandit Calvera (Eli Wallach) and his horde. With Brad Dexter, Horst Buchholz. 128 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English; Subtitles English. Two-disc set.

The last time I viewed this film was on the initial DVD release. I am completely blown away by this 4k presentation. Six hired guns and a wannabe agree to protect a village where farmers are being exploited by a group of bandits. I have seen so much detail in this film that I have never seen before. Such a gorgeous looking film that showcases the beauty of their locations. I am taken with this transfer. If you like classics, westerns or just a good story, buy this 4k disc.

Not durable - purchased 1 year ago
on January 11, 2023
Posted by: cdoug57
Verified Purchase:Yes
Looking to replace an Epson printer that was always more trouble than anything. We found this yo be a cheaper option and the HP instant ink seemed like a good deal. Set up was easy as long as you used the computer/phone app. All was fine with the printing as long as paper would feed. That is the issue we had. We were not using exceptionally thick paper, the paper just would not feed. It would be pulled about a third of the way in, jam and just stop. We returned printer and had to search for a newer one.

Was working with a 5 year old laptop with a standard hard disc drive. Time for an upgrade and this SSD laptop seemed to be the thing I needed.
It sure is.
The speed is amazing.
All in all, a fine laptop with a good price.

Glad that the original films have been restored and are available as a 4k/UHD blu-ray. I have never seen this film look this good. The color reproduction is excellent. Klingon blood has never looked this pink.
Fine presentation of an all around excellent film.

The outrageous InchEvil DeadInch series continues as cynical, chainsaw-handed department store clerk Ash (Bruce Campbell) and his '73 Oldsmobile land in medieval England, where he battles pit-dwelling monsters, his own villainous twin, and a battalion of living skeletons. Hip humor and great special effects highlight Sam Raimi's action-horror yarn; Embeth Davidtz, Ian Abercrombie also star. Theatrical version; 81 min./Director's cut; 96 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English; Subtitles English. Four-disc set.

"Hail to the king, baby!"

Verified Purchase:Yes
Have always been a fan of this very quotable " cult" flick. Shout/Scream Factory has given the 4K treatment to the short theatrical "Army Of Darkness". The film has never looked better.
Shout's strong suit is the effort put into making a most definitive version of this film. Pretty much every cut of this film is available on this 4 disc set. Along with the various cuts, you get almost all of the assorted extras from each previous release plus a newish documentary covering all aspects of filming and production.

WOW, Looks great

Verified Purchase:Yes
Ever since the complete season blu-ray sets have been released, I have jumped on them. They look great, having been "remastered" for the best possible viewing experience. This penultimate season for Tom Baker is a fine example. As with the prior collections, there is an abundance of background and extras. The episodes look better than ever. The "monsters", well you see them very clearly. For this longtime fan, just perfect. Highly recommended.
