Three-disc set includes Scream (1996)Director Wes Craven's slyly self-referential shocker follows a group of high school horror film fans in a small California town who are systematically slaughtered by a mysterious masked slasher. Newscaster Gale Weathers (Courteney Cox) thinks this killer also did in teenager Sidney Prescott's (Neve Campbell) mother the year before, even though the supposed murderer is behind bars. Skeet Ulrich, David Arquette, Rose McGowan, Matthew Lillard, and Drew Barrymore co-star. 111 min. C/Rtg R Scream 2 (1997)The ghost-faced killer from the first film is gone, and the survivors are trying to get on with their lives. But when the debut of a horror movie based on the murders called InchStabInch is marred by copycat killings, it becomes clear to everyone that a new round of terror is about to begin. Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, David Arquette, Jerry O'Connell, Sarah Michelle Gellar, and Jada Pinkett star in this spooky, witty sequel. 120 min.

~ Shutter Island in glorious 4K is high suspense ~

Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Outstanding thriller about an insane asylum that seems to be having trouble with the people in charge. 2 Federal agents are sent to the island to investigate, however, getting deeper and deeper into the investigation, it seems things are not what they appear to be.
Leonardo DiCaprio does a great job in this one and I can say I think it is one of his best performances in a movie, period. Ben Kingsley also in the lead as one of the main people in charge of the asylum.
Put this one on your 4K player and sound system on a Friday or Saturday night and you will be in for one on the edge of your seat movies.
4K picture and sound quality are outstanding.
I would highly recommend, but not for kids 12 and under.

Outstanding 3rd movie with Tom Holland as Spider Man.
When he asks Dr. Strange to remove or make anyone that knows the identity of Spider-Man, things get severely out of order with the spell. Spider-Man must now confront old nemesis' and different Spider-Man's from alternate universes.
Great looking steel book and to my surprise it was dent free. There were air pads in box for added cushion in shipment. Much appreciated Best Buy!

Veteran actor Liam Neeson plays a tough bank robber, and when he finds a love of his life, he now must confront his deeds and repent. Along the way, he gets involved in a deadly scheme where two agents want to steal the money from him, millions of it.

Tom Hanks stars as the wonderful Mister Rogers, a well-known icon for kids growing up in the '70s, mostly.
His portrayal is spot on and everything about this movie tells the back story of such a character to come on the TV screen. He shows all of us that kindness and caring go a long way.
The movie looks good and sounds good on the 4K equipment.

~ The Green Mile comes to 4K UHD! ~
on March 4, 2022
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
In one of the best prison movies made, Tom Hanks stars as a lead security guard in charge of the prisoners. There is one special prisoner that has been sent there that seems to have healing powers after an encounter with Tom's character and him. The prisoner was sent on a double murder charge, but after what happened between him and Hanks' character, things start to look a bit off in regard to the charges and questioning whether the man got an actual fair trial to begin with.
This movie looks really good in 4K and the sound is superb as well. If you love Tom Hanks and his well-done movies, I highly recommend this one!
It is a long movie, a little over 3 hours, so perhaps watch it in parts, 1 and half hour each unless you can sit through a 3-hour movie all at once.
Special features are on the Blu-ray disc provided and Digital copy with slipcover is here as well.
Well done!

~ The Howling makes its way to 4K UHD! ~
on March 1, 2022
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Howling, a 1980 werewolf movie is still one of my all-time favorites. Now, a brand new 4K restoration and great sound make this one to have. Dee Wallace plays a reporter on the hunt for a good story involving a recent string of homicides. They believe the man responsible stalks the seedy part of L.A./Hollywood.
Once she is drawn into the fact that the man doing the killings is not even human, things get weirder.
Her mental state is affected by a recent encounter known only as Eddie.
A well-known doctor now talks her and her husband into coming to a secluded getaway in the forest called The Colony.
It's a very special place, one in which all the inhabitants are werewolves themselves.
The doctor, played by veteran actor Patrick Macnee (A View to a Kill), is supposedly the anchor of the group, but an intelligent woman leader of the bunch says otherwise.
After a shootout ensues with Dee Wallace's character Karen and her close male friend, they seem to make it out alive.
Fate says not so fast as the two survivors tell their story on live TV News in an ending for the horror record books.
The movie looks spectacular on the 4K equipment and sound is superb for a 1980 horror movie.
I heard sounds I had not heard before when I played this back through the sound bar.
All special features have been brought over from previous editions and we get a few new interviews as well. The main one is with Dee Wallace talking about making the movie and having it still revered all these 40 some years later.
She still looks great!

~Ghostbusters: Afterlife finally comes to UHD 4K~
on February 6, 2022
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Well, after many years of waiting for a good sequel to Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters 2 from the 1980s, we finally have Afterlife. To be honest, I did not know what to expect watching it for the first time, after seeing the trailer on youtube. I personally liked it, but was it absolutely perfect? No, nothing really is especially in movies.
The effects were spot on, and I am really happy to see elements from the original 2 starring Bill Murray, Dan Akroyd, Ernie Hudson and finally Sigourney Weaver who has a scene in the credits with Bill Murray. Very nicely done!
I would recommend this to fans of the first two films. I did not see the one with the all-female cast nor do I care to.
I have seen enough online scenes and reviews to know that that one was a total waste.
Find a good deal on it and enjoy the nostalgia.

Flash Gordon isn't for everyone, but it's good.
By laopwh
Flash Gordon isn't for everyone, but it is a good movie set in 1980.the music score is what makes the movie really good because new score is all done by Queen. What makes the steelbook really good as it's the 40th anniversary of the movie itself. Anybody knows the story behind Flash Gordon knows the story itself. Flash Gordon, Dale Arden, and Doctor Zarcough have to find a way to stop Earth's destruction. Not knowing that Ming the Merciless is behind everything and Earth's destruction. Having the 40th anniversary edition come out on steelbook is worth every penny.

Step right up to the counter and play away. Arcade1Up's next generation of countercades is here in a new form factor. Take it right out of the box, plug it in, and start gobbling up pellets. Perfect for home bars, offices, dorm rooms, or anywhere else you'd want to squeeze in some retro gaming, Arcade1Up~s countercades are compact in size, but always an enormous amount of fun. Yep, here she is. Possibly a diva but most definitely an icon, Ms. Pac-Man. Guide her way through those mazes while evading Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Sue. In the mood to switch it up? You've also got the classics Pac-Man, Plus, Galaga, and Dig Dug all inside. Featuring authentic gameplay with real feel controls, Arcade1Up's countercades are the way to bring that classic arcade experience home, even if you're short on space.

Hi, I have Ms. Pac-Man on a tabletop version and it is exact like the genuine ARCADE version from early 80s. In the original version of the game she starts out slow and then she speeds up as you clear a few screens, around the PEACH and APPLE stages.
Is it the same here on the countercade version?
Of interest concerning MS., PAC-MAN on my tabletop, there are several versions of the game. These are the only ones that I know of:
MS. PAC-MAN Original
MS. PAC-MAN Speed-Up
MS. PAC-MAN Plus
MS. PAC-ATTACK

Another great package from Arcade1up
By TRAINMAN0703
The very best aspect of this over Arcade1up's original Pac-Man offering is the upgraded monitor. The original Pac-Man's image would wash out when you looked at it from a slight angle. This rendition does not do that. The image is bright and crisp from any angle. The monitor is also set further back in the cabinet and tilted more, which does not sound like much on paper until you actually play it and compare it to the real arcade machine.
I buy these things solely with modifications in mind, therefore I did not play any of the included games right out of the box. For those who do not "mod" these, the assortment of games is a vast improvement over the chintzy offering of a mere 2 Pac-titles in the last Pac-Man cabinet. I am baffled by the inclusion of "Galaga" however. Pac-Man's "lady friend" would have been great here, but she is getting her own royal treatment (and deservedly so) soon. I must point out that they did change the way the control panel mounts to the cabinet and how the lower two front-facing panels (these are also slightly resized) directly below said control panel install. Because of the alteration(s) to the control panel, you cannot just slide in/out the panels below it, which will make for a tricky assembly process. The shape of the cabinet itself is another notable improvement as it veers much closer to capturing the profile of the real thing. The speakers (yes, speakerS) are now housed behind/under the marquee, which is also far more arcade-like not just in looks but also sound reproduction.
The light-up marquee, light-up (albeit non-prototypical) control deck, bar stool and riser make this package the best value of any Pac-Man 40th anniversary offering, as separate-sale risers are VERY hard to come by; and, to my knowledge, the 40th anniversary-themed bar stool is not sold separately at all. Again, I will gripe that the design on the riser does not look like a natural extension of the cabinet. The faux-wood grain should be on the sides and the black in the front. Oh well. This can be fixed with after-market graphics for those who really feel the need. I think I personally would have preferred the cabinet to be yellow like the 1980 prototype, but the "cabaret" models of the time did indeed have a wood grain finish, albeit with no graphics.
If you did not get the original Pac-Man cabinet from Arcade1up, this is most certainly worthy of consideration. Other than the slightly trickier assembly, this is an improvement in almost every way.

40th Anniversary Special Edition from Best Buy..
September 15, 2020
Hi, great review of the newer version of PAC-MAN from Arcade1up. I am going to get this one for my upcoming 54th bday! Yes, I am showing my age, but, I was 13 when the original cabinet came out. I loved it then and I still love it now. I would have to agree with you on the riser part as per the graphics, but, I think they were going for a contrast look. Agreed also, they should have continued the wood grain on the sides and kept the black on the front to make it look uniform. I do love the SPECIAL EDITION from Best Buy. Not only do you get the light up aspects of the unit, you also get the stand with the graphics.
My only complaint would be the unit having the AUDIO switch setting too loud if you go beyond 1.

That's too bad. I think you got a glitch in the part where the circuit board is. I had the original GALAGA/GALAXIAN game and in some games on the GALAXIAN the screen froze up right in the middle of playing. I was not a happy person. I got rid of it and sold it cheap to someone else that wanted GALAGA, which had no issues.
SUPER PAC-MAN is going to be on the MS. PAC-MAN cabinet coming soon AND there is a SUPER PAC-MAN cabinet from COSTCO that has it on it's own. This just came out within a few days to a week. September 15, 2020. You have to go to COSTCO and find someone with a membership to purchase. You cannot get it online to my knowledge.

Ms PacMan Cabinet
By Oval
Packaging was great and care has been taken to protect the parts in transit. Assembly was about 1.5-2 hours from start to finish. I was taking my time to make sure I didn’t scratch any pcs during assembly. The cabinet looks great and the light up marquee really makes it stand out. The graphics on the riser add a nice touch as well. The cabinet comes with dual speakers and the sound quality is good. I bought the cabinet for Ms Pac-Man but having Dig Dug was a bonus. Overall I’m really happy with my purchase and would recommend.

Definitive!!!
By SirDevoidOfHate
The definitive collection, and probably the last one you’ll ever need (unless they do a 4K release in the future). The first four films have never looked better, period! And if you’re a 3D supporter (we’re a dying breed these days, but we’re out there!) then you will love finally having a proper 3D release of Part 3! Also, having the Unrated Cut of Jason Goes to Hell is a major plus! The bonus features are very informative, though it’s a shame that the Crystal Lake Memories documentary isn’t included. That’s not to take away from what Scream Factory put together. This is an AMAZING collection!

Uncut version of JGTH/Jason X
October 31, 2020
HI, I have this set as well from Shout! Factory and it appears there is a minor audio issue with Jason X. A sound effect is not present when Jason goes to kill a woman character in the movie.
JGTH seems to be missing a scene from other reviewers I have read on. I am not worried about this as I have the UNRATED DVD from Lionsgate already.

Excellent movie. Not perfect, but great movie.
By Misterday
Great movie. But so removed from the original animated movie, you might enjoy it more if you consider them to not have anything to do with each other. There’s no music, no Mushu, no romance. The only real thing making it a Mulan movie is her name is Mulan. They don’t do a great job of making you feel like she’s a boy in the army. It’s a lazy gender bend if you ask me. But the movie has everything a live action Disney movie can want or need. Great story, great special effects, great score, great action and emotion. Just don’t compare it to the cartoon too much and you’ll like it a lot more.

Very pleased, excellent transfer
By NateC
Unlike some other buyers, luckily my copy came right on time and in perfect condition.
The movies themselves are phenomenally mastered with crisp picture, robust hdr color/contrast, and awesome 4k textures I've never seen before on previous inferior versions. These look excellent in my home theater and serve as the new showcase for my system (which used to be Mad Max: Fury Road). The steelbooks are attractive and come with cushioning foam in the slipcase to protect them from rubbing against each other.
Not as much extra content (i.e. The Appendices) as previous versions, so I'll need to keep my old copy as well.

My daughter absolutely loves it and we enjoy seeing who can get the high score on this 40th Anniversary Pac-Man. The custom stool is nice and the backlit Marquis and control deck is really nice. The led control deck has a button on the right that can change the colors or slowly rotate through all the colors. The replay value is good for the list of Pac-Man games plus you get Galaga! Very happy.

You're going to hate buying this version when a New 12-1 Legacy Edition is coming, better cabinet, more games, for the same price.

Retrogaming fans and pop-culture enthusiasts have been clamoring for it, and here it is courtesy of Arcade1Up: the Atari Legacy CENTIPEDE Edition home arcade machine, for the first time in a form factor shaped just like the original classic arcade cabinet!
 

There are misleading images of this unit's screen size when showing Centipede. The game is a vertical game as it should be. However, there are photos of it being squashed or horizontal. Which is it?

Evolving from its 1958 beginnings as an amusement game manufacturer, Midway produced some of the hottest arcade games of the 80s and 90s, that have since been adapted into film, television, and much more.Their monsters-wreaking-havoc title Rampage~was a giant early hit, and then leaps in live action digitizing technology led to Mortal Kombat~, recognized as one of the most important titles in video game history. With it~s over the top darkly humorous gameplay and finishing moves, Mortal Kombat~became an instant franchise with iconic characters and enduring catch phrases.
 

So, what's the actual date of release now? Arcade 1up had it in March and Best Buy says Dec. 31, 2021. lol There are many of us eagerly awaiting to get this unit when Arcade 1up SAYS and sends an email stating it is READY for Preorder.

Does this come with a deck protector as well? I know the most recent ones have had it, but this does not specify.

Does it have adjustable speed for ms Pac-Man? They use to sell them back then with ability of speeding the entire game up. Made it more challenging

Hey Robin, it looks like they have it in the setup menu where you can go in and change settings, etc. for each game. I have 2 Legacy Editions, and that is a new feature on those. This one looks to be the same, with 12 games in all. I have the original Ms. Pac-Man with 4 games cabinet, and you cannot adjust the game settings on that one.

Where is the preorder button for this? All I see is coming soon...what gives?

All I see is COMING SOON at BEST BUY and GAMESTOP says it is not available. Not sure they know what they are doing when it comes to actually having it ready for PREORDER.

When do you charge a customers credit card on a pre-order

Hi, I just ordered mine today, 28 January, pre-order, and Best Buy sent me an email stating that I WOULD NOT be charged until the item itself is shipped. Which is currently March 30th, 2021 on release day. Anytime I have pre-ordered items here on Best Buy with my account, I have NEVER been charged prior to the item shipping or pickup in person. That is a fact.

Set up your gaming room with this Arcade1Up Ms. Pac-Man arcade game console. The classic upright design has a midsize profile for seamless fitting in tight spaces, while the 17-inch LCD screen offers crisp visuals for complete immersion. This Arcade1Up Ms. Pac-Man arcade game console features four games for a complete nostalgic experience, and the coinless operation allows unlimited play.
 

I don't see an option for extended warranty. 30 day warranty is not long enough. Is there some way of getting an extended warranty?

Yeah, I got this directly from BEST BUY and it does not have an extended warranty. You could ask the GEEK Squad there for info.

Does the game come with the riser as shown? Also, is the the fast version or the slow version of Ms. Pac-Man?

Yes, it comes with a custom riser. The Ms. PAC MAN on this is the actual arcade version. It gradually speeds up, it is NOT the FAST version.

So this cabinet shows Ms Pac-Man, Dig Dug, Galaxian, and Super Pac Man. The other cabinets I have seen show Ms Pac-Man, Galaxian, Pac Mania, and Pac Man Plus. Are different retailers getting different versions.

Yes, WAL MART has it, but it has the different games PAC MANIA and PAC MAN PLUS. It does NOT have the light up marquee or the custom riser, either.

On Game stop.com they have the exact same cabinet with the light at marquee will Best Buy do a price match because that one is $50 cheaper

The Best Buy one has the custom riser and the light up marquee. If GAMESTOP has that on the unit, then get it cheaper. Also, the games may vary depending on the seller.
