Outstanding '80s movie now in HD 4K! A High School student stumbles upon what he thinks is a new game list from a game company. He hacks into the system to try and play them, unknowingly getting into a high security military system. One of Matthew Broderick's '80s hits. We all know what the other is...Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
The picture and sound here are fantastic. The best I think this is going to look and sound. Get this set soon and add it to your 4K library and '80s movies on HD. Lots of '80s stuff here. Artwork, 4K, Blu-ray, digital copy. I would have liked a slipcover for this one, but it is great just the same.

I really enjoyed this one with a great cast. Val Kilmer, Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, among some others. I had some reservations on this one due to some reviews saying the picture was too dark, etc. Well, I really had no issues with it as far as the 4K goes. Night scenes were pretty good for the most part, and daytime was excellent. Sound was utterly fantastic at 7.1 Audio. I really heard the shootout from the bank heist this time. Excellent. I have started to improve my Val Kilmer library due to his ongoing health issues. Al Pacino, what can I say about this brilliant actor that has not been said already? Just outstanding. Robert, the usual bad guy drama actor here, did not disappoint. Ashley Judd plays the wife of Val Kilmer's character. She looks good here.
If you want another good crime drama with Val Kilmer, may I suggest The Real McCoy with Kim Basinger. Excellent.
My 4K equipment is Sony all the way. I have no issues.

A decent remake of the cult original from George Romero. The only thing I really didn't like about it was the zombies running like they were on a mass sprint exercise. It really resembled the World War Z movie. A virus spreads through bites, etc. Still, an enjoyable romp with that in mind.
We get 3 discs total, the 4K UHD with the Unrated Cut, The 2 Blu-rays, one with the Unrated Cut, the other Theatrical Cut. Many special features from the movie brought over from previous release. Easy selections on the menu, which is good by the way. Picture quality is outstanding, the sound, is a 5.1 mix. If you have a good sound system, it is decent.
For this release and the 3 discs, plus slipcover, I did not pay the near 40 bucks for it. So, find a good deal on this one and add it to your horror library before it is oop.

Beautifully done Steelbook of THE FOG in 4K UHD. The artwork here is fabulous throughout, inside as well. These discs have different artwork on them then the edition with Jamie Lee on the front cover. Content is great, lots of special features. The movie looks fantastic and sounds fantastic in the 7.1 Audio!
Get this movie soon if you don't own it already! One of Carpenter's best! He even has a cameo in the movie.

Val Kilmer stars as a young genius at a prestigious school.
HIs knowledge coupled with others there develop an ingenious device. Not known to them though that it would be used by a professor and his colleagues for military purposes.
He and his friends team up to stop the professor from benefitting of the new "weapon" and dispose of it in proper fashion. The ending is hilarious.
Looks and sounds better than ever on 4K UHD! One of my favorite '80s movies!
Thank you, Sony Includes Blu-ray and digital copy.!

An upcoming Chuck Norris stars as a leader of the Black Tigers. An Elite group that goes to Vietnam to bring back any and all MIA's.
After a "setup" there, the group takes a few casualties. John T. Booker, played by Chuck, takes a direct lead in finding out who is responsible and dealing with them in his own style.
A lovely Anne Archer (Fatal Attraction, Narrow Margin) stars as a reporter and love interest.
Look for other stars of the era, and notable actor Dana Andrews.
Nicely done Kino Lorber! Nice menu, easy selections, good artwork and slipcover. Reversable artwork slip on inside.

~ DEATH WISH on 4K with nice slipcover and artwork
on February 9, 2023
Posted by: 93Vet
Wow, get this on 4K! Kino Lorber did a great overall job on this one. The whole package is great with nice slipcover. Reversable inside cover also. I would say the 4K is quite nice, probably the best we are going to get on this 1974 gritty movie starring Charles Bronson.
The Audio is improved at DTS HD English 5.1. The Blu-ray is same at English 5.1. There is special features here that I have not seen before. Kino Lorber always does a great job on that. Many theatrical trailers of Charles' movies, and a few others.
This is definitely an improvement over the lazy Paramount Blu-ray that was released a few years back.
I do hope KINO LORBER gets the rights to do the other sequels, especially DEATH WISH II and III. Nice slipcover artwork!!

Great! I loved this chapter of the Friday the 13th franchise. The steelbook looks great all the way through! Love it. This is the Deluxe Blu-ray that has been previously released before. Still a great release. Got all 4 steelbooks now! Bring on the rest, Paramount!

Authentic arcade experience
ByBBShopper
This is the 1UP Arcade to get. Ten games, including MK1, 2, and Ultimate 3. Scan line filter and difficulty settings are available on each game. Some games have additional options. MK1 and 2 have flawless emulation. Ultimate MK3 suffers from occasional slow down when a lot happens on screen. Otherwise it plays perfectly.
This is my first 1UP purchase, and I'm very satisfied with this purchase. I'll pick up more as my favorite games are released.
Apocalypse Now: The Final Cut looks stunning now in 4K for the 30th Anniversary Edition! The overall package, design and discs are all nicely done. Picture quality and sound are fabulous and it makes you think you are right there with the guys in the military boat making its way through the river. All special features have been brought over from other releases, and you get the HEART OF DARKNESS feature as well.
This is a war movie and not for the younger viewers. HIghly recommended for all those that love Robert Duvall. His portrayal of a Colonel in this movie is spectacular. Martin Sheen also does a great job as the Captain put in charge of the boat to destroy a lunatic colonel out in the jungle.

Kate Capshaw co-stars as Indy's new romantic interest, nightclub singer Willie Scott, and Ke Huy Quan is sidekick Short Round; Steven Spielberg directs. 118 min.

Package Ruined By Shipping/USPS
ByKevin
Received product like many items recently shipped from bestbuy in plain mail envelopes with no padding or protection, when i am spending 80 to 100 for something that comes in a special edition box i expect it to be protected when shipped not placed in a stand mail envelope. the box was torn up and one of the steelbooks has a very visible scratch on it. i understand its not a hard box surrounding the steelbooks but when i ship stuff i protect my items bestbuy just likes to charge full price and not give a crap i am so close to being done and going else where. hopefully i can find this in store at my local best to swap out. had the same issue with recent movie BackDraft the steel book came and look terrible was even bent during shipping.
Not all 4K movies are released with an additional Blu-ray disc. This is one of them. Make sure it specifically says you are getting the standard Blu-ray disc as well as the 4K UHD.

Disappointment
ByAnonymous
Got as a gift for Christmas. Used about 6 times. Tried playing last week and no screen/picture had sound. I turned off n on many times and no visual just sound. Unfortunately waranty only covers for 3 months! Would not recomend!!
I hope you knew that 4K discs DO NOT play in standard Blu-ray players before you wrote this 1 star review for the movie. You should have known by now that 4K discs have to be played in their own players and can play the others, DVD/Blu-ray. Game systems also have to be able to read the 4K UHD disc as well. 4K is a step up from Blu-ray, overall.
The art is amazing, the panel graphics are fantastic. They did an amazing job remaking this 20th anniversary cab. The screen is ultra clear. Fantastic game selection. And every game has online leaderboards which makes the replay value great. I keep coming back to this cab wanting to get in the top 25. Arcade1up’s quality has really improved over the first gen cabs. They knocked this one out of the park.
Thank you for taking the time to convey what I was thinking without having it physically, yet! Looking at the cabinet up close with the pictures provided here on Best Buy, it looks like they have redesigned the Volume control and On/Off white buttons also. They look to be flat now, as opposed to be the white pegs they are on the PAC MAN Legacy Edition I own. Is that an upgrade design for this one? Just curious.
I got this assembled just fine, but then the joystick fell apart after the first play. I got it reassembled, but now it's loose and doesn't feel right. The controls don't respond right either. I am really good at this game and score well in arcades, so something is wrong. I shouldn't have to repair parts for a brand new machine. Not impressed.
Hi, that is a shame and I feel for you. Hopefully, you will get your money back on this. I should say that PAC MAN Legacy Edition is really good, but I feel like the joystick could have been built better. It works, but it really clicky whereas the real one from the Arcade is solid and does not make any noise. That is the only drawback I have on these units, the joysticks are not built well enough.
I bought this thinking it was the Steelbook Collector's Set. Unfortunately, it was just regular packaging. Not worth the price without it being steenboks.
You can still get those, for the Hobbit, and then Lord of the Rings. Finding a good deal on them is key and not all dented up. I should say though they did not have the Appendices, which I believe this one does?
Had the Ms Pac Man cocktail table, which I love. Class of 81 blows that one out of the water. Selling the cocktail cabinet.
Lit marquee, best graphics and side art arcade 1 up has ever released, lighted deck with 8 color options, wifi and online world leaderboards, dip switch settings to customize difficulty and speed (software update even added rapid fire to Galaga ... and since it's wifi the update takes place as fast as adding an app to your phone)
I have 7 cabinets and this is by far my favorite. Even got some world high scores!
Thanks for the review! I have to say, I was impressed with their graphics on the STAR WARS cabinet and TEMPEST Atari Legacy Edition, of which I own. This one looks great as well. The lighted deck seems to be a new addition. Good to know!
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?

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.
