Decent release if you get it on sale
on November 2, 2022
Posted by: hallowken
Verified Purchase:Yes
The film has always been a little soft, so this 4k didn't blow me away how I expected it to. I also couldn't get sound out of my speakers when putting the disc in - had to fiddle around with some settings to get it to work - to this day I'm not sure what I even did, but others have had the same issue if you google it.

Widescreen; Soundtrack English; Subtitles English. Two-disc set.

Stellar 4k restoration of this unsung classic. Definitely worth the upgrade if this is a film that slots in your annual Halloween viewing. Tom Atkins Rules!

Good for the Price
on November 2, 2022

Verified Purchase:Yes
Relatively easy to set up, but after using this for 6+ months I can say it is fairly glitchy when interfaced to run through the tv. Definitely hard to get it tuned in just right so that the sound matches the picture due to delay issues. I'm still not convinced it is perfect, but eventually got it close enough.

John Carpenter's groundbreaking shocker that opened the floodgates for hundreds of imitators stills packs a scare-raising punch. Fifteen years after being placed in an asylum for killing his sister on Halloween, maniacal Michael Myers escapes and returns to his hometown of Haddonfield, Illinois, in search of new victims. Jamie Lee Curtis (her film debut), Donald Pleasence, Nancy Loomis, and P.J. Soles star. 91 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English; Subtitles English. Three-disc set.

He knows if you've been bad or good, but he's not Santa Claus. He's Krampus, the dreaded Christmas demon who punishes those who've been naughty. When a dysfunctional family loses the holiday spirit, Krampus and his maniacal minions-including deadly gingerbread men and a monstrous jack-in-the-box-show up to terrorize them until they learn the true meaning of Christmas. Toni Collette, Adam Scott, David Koechner, Allison Tolman star in this quirky blend of horror and dark comedy. 98 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

Modern Holiday Classic
on November 2, 2022
Posted by: hallowken
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Naughty Cut adds some very helpful character interaction serving to beef up the heartfelt element of the picture - if you're looking for guts 'n gore then this cut will not really do anything to satiate you. Also, the sound on this 4k disc is unreal!

Move over, Freddy and Jason, because Michael Myers is coming back! After spending 10 years in a prison asylum, Michael escapes and heads for the town where his bloody killing spree took place in order to find-and most assuredly attempt to murder-his own niece, Jamie Lloyd (Danielle Harris). Donald Pleasence, Ellie Cornell, Michael Pataki, Beau Starr, and George P. Wilbur co-star. 88 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English; Subtitles English. Two-disc set.

Amazing special effects and a furry sense of humor highlight this Joe Dante scareshow about L.A.

Once there, White finds the Colony is home to a host of strange characters, who all seem to be vicious werewolves. John Sayles loosely adapted the Gary Brandner novel; with Christopher Stone, Patrick Macnee, Kevin McCarthy, John Carradine. 91 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

Looks Great

A decent film with some re-watch ability, but the 4k truly shines, especially with all of the darkness in this transfer. Definitely a worthy pickup when the price is cheap enough.
