Loved the movie ever since it debuted! This 4K edition shines even further now! Loved the whole package!
Nice slipcover and artwork on discs as well. This new 4K scan from the original camera negative is superb! I think this is going to be the best it will ever look. Nice that is comes with a newer Blu-ray version as well.
Get this soon! Every Horror library has to have it.

~ The Running Man on 4K UHD! Buyer beware of image
on July 20, 2023
Posted by: 93Vet
What a fantastic movie of Arnold's from 1987. The movie has never looked or sounded so good on 4K UHD!! I mean that absolutely! The Blu-ray has been out for quite some time, but you can get that newer version of it separately if you choose. I would recommend this 4K UHD big time though for the 4K video equipment, player, soundbar, etc.
I have to subtract 1 star for the advertisement here on Best Buy due to now showing the proper images for purchase. It shows the Steelbook version, however, it is not. Per other customers that have reviewed it seeing that image, they did not get the steelbook edition. The Steelbook edition is absolutely gorgeous if you can get that, I recommend!
Keep any previous Blu-ray for the special features, not much here in the way for that. Just the movie on 4K UHD and a Digital Copy.

Baz Luhrmann's expectedly electric biopic of the King of Rock 'n' Roll offers an arresting central performance by Austin Butler, as the peaks and valleys of Elvis Presley's performing career are recounted through the deathbed reflections of ex-manager Colonel Tom Parker (Tom Hanks), the Southern Svengali who cannily trained the Tupelo youngster's charismatic gifts on the American public-and just as ruthlessly exploited them. Olivia DeJonge, Richard Roxburgh, Helen Thomson also star. 159 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

One of the best High School football movies ever made. Looks good and sounds good on the 4K TV and Sony 4K player!
Nearing the 20th Anniversary for this movie, I say take a look at this one, perhaps on a Friday Night for the feel of it when football games were played during the season.

Although nothing like the original in black and white, this is an updated 1999 version starring some good actors. One being Ms. Catherine Zeta Jones. Wow, she is so good looking in the '90s. This 4K edition really brings out all the details now on the format and the sound has been upgraded from the previous Blu-ray edition. All features have been brought over for this nicely done movie. Menu and selection options are good. The movie is not scary, but it does have some tense moments for an overall good one. The movie is 4 stars, but this upgrade to the 4K format gets another one for me over the Blu-ray.

This one is a mixed bag for a Star Wars movie. I did enjoy it and the storyline, but some of the dialogue was poorly written. Action was decent and characters were good, overall. I do have a problem with the droid helping the young Lando Calrissian. The dialogue is awful on it and the whole thing about a droid seeking "equal rights" is just a stupid segment to even begin with.
Ron Howard is a decent director for the most part, but at times this movie lacked it for his caliber.
The actor portraying Han Solo was good, but not sure they cast the best one since this is 10 years before A NEW HOPE. There we see a much more aged and mature Han Solo with Chewie.
The overall storyline was decent as it is the ongoing Empire vs all planets that don't want to be ruled by them with fighting taking place, etc.
The 4K looked fairly good on the non HDR 4K TV in the Sony 4K player. I do have to say that HDR may add more black levels to this, so you may have to adjust for that.
Menus are good with sound and commentary to choose from, etc. Special features are good.
I do recommend, but find a good price for this one if you don't have it already.
The ending of this movie was my favorite part of it where Han and Chewie (now owners of the Falcon) take off for a planet called Tatooine to see a crime boss, Jabba The Hutt.
Alternate Dimension Being Yapool started invading Earth with an entourage of Terrible-Monsters that were more powerful than ordinary monsters. The Terrestrial Defense Force was annihilated. Ultraman Ace has been sent from Nebula M78 Land of Light

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. 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. C/Rtg R Scream 3 (2000)The third time is a bloody charm in Wes Craven's cut-and-cut-up series. Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell), now a recluse working for a women's crisis hot-line, travels to Hollywood, where cast members of film-within-a film InchStab 3Inch are being slaughtered and pictures of Sidney's mother are being left at the crime scene. Courteney Cox Arquette, David Arquette, Patrick Dempsey, and Parker Posey co-star, with several surprising cameos. 117 min. C/Rtg R

~ 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.

F13 The Final Chapter Steelbook!
ByTommyC1
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.
