What a great job KINO LORBER has done on this movie from 1984. I believe this may be the best it has looked since it's debut. Brand new HD Master from a 4K scan of the original camera negative. So, it does show here on this new Blu-ray version.
Same special features as appears on the Shout Factory version, the interview with the screen writer, theatrical trailer, audio commentary by Director Joseph Zito. Added are several Chuck Norris movie trailers, which are fantastic. Kino always does this with their releases, if possible.
Nice slipcover and artwork. Audio is good, about the same as the Shout Factory edition.

A fantastic edition, finally on 4K UHD! The entire package is really nice. Artwork throughout the steelbook, front, back, inside as well.
4K is black in color, no images from the movie. The Blu-ray included is the same Blu-ray that has been released, so nothing new here. The 4K looks great on the 4K TV and player. Audio has several options, with a newly remastered DTS 5.1 English or the original audio for the movie. 3 separate commentaries are here as well in the menu. Still image from the movie with background music for the menu. Easy selections. Digital copy is also included here. I saw no defects in the movie. Great transfer. Detail was improved overall.
If you don't already own the Blu-rays that have been out for several years now and only want the 4Ks themselves, I recommend the individual package with the first 4 in the series. That does have the digital copies as well.
I am a steelbook collector, so I got this edition. The steelbook has a non-glossy satin finish to it and it works well.
If you're feeling down or saddened, watch this movie, it will lift your spirits. Highly recommend! well.

Although I like Jason Statham as an action actor, this movie didn't do it for me, overall. The storyline is decent, but, just too much harsh language and gratuitous violence in this one. The 4K itself looks fairly decent and the sound is good. Easy selections on menu. No slipcover, but Digital copy and Blu-ray copy included.
THERE'S A NEW REASON TO BE AFRAID OF THE DARK. A sci-fi/horror sleeper hit that birthed a franchise and launched the career of a new action movie icon, Pitch Black holds it's own today as a nerve-shredding creature-feature in which the monsters outside finally meet their match against a monster within. When an intergalactic transport ship crashes on a remote desert planet with no sign of help on the horizon, the survivors, led by Fry (Radha Mitchell), band together to find a way back home. Among the passengers is Riddick (Vin Diesel), a convicted murderer being transported by marshal Johns (Cole Hauser) - and now freed of his chains and on the loose. But as a solar eclipse plunges the planet into total darkness, a threat even worse than Riddick reveals itself, and the last humans standing may have to form an uneasy truce with the cunning fugitive (whose eyes have been surgically altered to see in the dark) to last the long night. Boasting crackerjack direction and a whip-smart script by David Twohy, as well as a star-making performance by Diesel, Riddick's first outing is freshly unleashed in an illuminating, brand new 4K restoration, with hours of exclusive bonus content.

In one of Vin Diesel's Sci-Fi classics, he's a prisoner on board a doomed space ship that crash lands on a planet inhabited by vile underground creatures. They only come out once the day light goes down. He must then be trusted by the others to get a plan together to get off the planet. As time goes on, one by one they get "picked off" by the creatures.
The movie looks really good on 4K UHD! Sound is great also! An improvement over any previous releases! Thank you Arrow! A must buy if you like Vin Diesel and this movie in particular. Easy selections on Menu.
This is the 4K UHD version only. No digital or Blu-ray copy.

A definitive must buy on this set! If you love these two actors in this buddy cop movie setting, you are going to really like this.
This set is really nice, a good slipcover, 2 4Ks, 2 Blu-rays and digital code for 19.99. I could not pass that up, had to have for the Eddie Murphy 4K movies and these itself.
Nice special features and movies look and sound great. Probably not going to get much better than this set folks. The individual sets are much higher in price. Get this set soon if you can find it.

Daniel Day Lewis does a fantastic job on this historical piece surrounding the events of President Lincoln's administration, enduring the Civil War, his assassination and the aftermath for America.
The Blu-ray looks good and sounds good on the 4K TV and player. The set comes with a DVD copy, no digital. Easy menu selections.
This really needs a good 4K upgrade for a 2012 movie. Would look and sound stunning even more so. Got this on a great deal, so will upgrade when available.

A good western remake with great cast! The steelbook is fabulous and the Blu-ray looks and sounds good on the 4K TV and player. I saw no issues such as dirt or defects on this release. Menu is good with easy selections and options.

Outstanding edition! I just cannot get over how good this movie looks and sounds now. Thank you, Shout Factory for such an amazing job on the restoration, etc. on this fabulous western from 1960!
There are several audio options to choose from in the Setup part of the menu. Easy selections. I watched this on my Sony 4K TV and player with Soundbar. I saw details I had not seen before. Outstanding cast from 1960. Retire that previous Blu-ray now, it doesn't even compare.
The Blu-ray and 4K discs have nice artwork on them, with a great slipcover. Get it now before the slipcover disappears.

I cannot say enough of what a great job Paramount has done to this first original Star Trek movie. It looks fantastic now with the updated effects, etc. I really enjoy this one now even more. Had to get it with the slipcover to add to the other 5 in the series. They all look great and sound great. Better than ever before. Menus are good with easy selections. Artwork is superb with nice slipcover.

BEWARNED!!! NO regular Blu-ray Disc included!!!
ByHomeTheaterElite
Great movie! But Bewarned that this edition ONLY includes the 4K UHD Disc and a Digital Copy. For $30 this should have included a regular Blu-ray disc. I have only one 4K UHD disc player in my home theater and the 4K disc is useless in the rest of my players. Disappointed in this purchase!
You have the 4K/Digital copy only version. The Steel book version has the regular Blu-ray in it as well for about 5 bucks more. Your link in your review shows the picture stating there is NO Blu-ray in the package.
This has been showing as coming soon for a few months. Initial pre-orders were super under supplied and it never restocked. Stores show zero stock for release day. And yet people on ebay are selling 10+ copies.
You should have put in for a pre-order as soon as you saw this steelbook on the website. I did just that and got 1 copy, which is all I wanted. Don't even wait until the month it is supposed to be released. Your chances then will be slim to none.
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.

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.

~ SCREAM 3 movie set includes 2 more Blu-rays ~
By93Vet
Fantastic 5 Blu-ray set that includes the first 3 SCREAM movies, and 2 documentary style features on separate Blu-rays.
Digital codes are provided as well for the movies. The picture and sound are good and still hold up well in the 4K system TV and player.
Menus are great with easy selections. Highly recommended if you are a fan of the movie series.
Find a good deal on this set, This one is a keeper in the horror collection!
Love the steel books. The only negative about this is the cardboard box they came in. It's thick enough but should have been put in a steel shell like The Lord of the Rings Other than that, it's a great series in awesome steel book cases.
If it was metal, it would have cost more to make and sell. Any shipment would most likely be dented up as well considering the shipping boxes and packing.

Mindless Fun in 4K!
ByRoflfeathers
John Carpenter’s follow up to the classic Escape from New York is a bit of a hit and miss. There are some likable characters this go round and Snake has the one-liners completely covered. A rehashed story similar to the structure from the original movie, albeit in a new locale, weakens it overall. A short runtime makes it worthwhile for a popcorn action flick, so sit back and watch the explosions! Note: The 4K presentation is amazing, color grading and grain structure are all in respectable standards for this release. I had to return this product before opening because of an audio issue with the surround sound track. This is documented online and Paramount is aware and offering a disc replacement program to fix this. If you have a white UPC code on the back, you’ll need a replacement, but if there is a yellow UPC code, you’re in the clear.
After realizing that this was only just the three movies released during the years of 1995 and 2002, this is not the full complete collection, and completely not worth the price.
Shout Factory already released the first 5 in the lineup, nice packaging, separately some time ago. This set completes the movies, but it was under Miramax, and they had to get licensing for another release on 4K. It's all in one package with a nice box.
Zack Snyder's feature directorial debut, this remake of the George Romero zombie classic finds a diverse group of people holed up in a Wisconsin shopping mall, besieged by an army of undead attackers. Their only hope is a daring exodus to a remote island they believe to be safe from the flesh-eating fiends. Ving Rhames, Sarah Polley, Jake Weber, Mekhi Phifer, Ty Burrell star. Director's cut; 110 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English; Subtitles English. Three-disc set.

Dawn of the Dead......4K Blu-ray
ByLeon8
Had to grab this 4k Bluray version of Dawn of the Dead one of my favorite zombie horde movies. You get a 4k unrated version, plus a bluray unrated, and also the theatrical version on a Bluray (3 Disc) and they're loaded with special features, would recommend.

Awesome F13 The Final Chapter Steelbook! No new special features unfortunately but F13 TFC remains a classic and the best of the series!
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.

Not sure, but I asked the Best Buy tech on duty and he sold me one similar to this one for my Galaxy 21 phone. It works well. My advice to you would be to go in person if you can and tell them your question. They should point you to the correct item that will work for you.
Most steelbook editions contain the DVD as well. Do any of these contain the DVD's? And none of the special features are listed. I am particularly interested if the 4k/blu-ray have extra features that the DVD's do not. Thanks for your quick reply.

It did when it first came out on 4K. I don't think it can be found in the brick-and-mortar stores with one now in 2022, 5 years later. You may have to go to ebay for one.
