Paramount and Comedy Central are also releasing the South Park animated special Joining the Panderverse (2023) on Blu-ray and DVD on 6/11. Amazon is suggesting a 4K Ultra HD release is also forthcoming, but that’s just a listing error—it’s Blu-ray and DVD only.

Paramount is definitely, however, releasing the animated film Rango (2011) on 4K Ultra HD Steelbook on 6/4.

Meanwhile, Severin Films has set William Asher’s Butcher Baker Nightmare Maker (1981), Sergio Martino’s The Great Alligator (1979), Eddy Matalon’s Cathy’s Curse (1977), and Lucio Fulci’s The Devil’s Honey (1986) for release on 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray on 5/28. Separate Blu-ray only releases will also be available.

Decal and Bleecker Street will release David and Nathan Zellner’s Sasquatch Sunset on Blu-ray and DVD on 5/28.

Radiance will release Noboru Nakamura’s The Shape of Night (1964) on Blu-ray and DVD on 4/30.

Magnolia will release Nicolaj Arcel’s The Promised Land (2023) on Blu-ray and DVD on 4/30 as well.

Our friends at Kino Lorber Studio Classics have just revealed that Jean-Luc Godard’s Alphaville (1965) is coming soon to 4K Ultra HD, featuring the new 2023 Dolby Vision master created by StudioCanal.

Also newly revealed as coming soon to Blu-ray from KLSC are Elia Kazan’s The Visitors (1972). And coming on Blu-ray on 5/14 is Peter Bogdanovich’s Daisy Miller (1974).

Finally today, a young filmmaker named Julian Curi has just shared a really wonderful animated film—or rather a puppeted film, but all produced in live action. It’s called Gruff, and it’s pretty extraordinary. It’s only 9 minutes long but well worth your time. Do give it a look...

We’ll leave you today with a look at the cover art for a number of the titles mentioned above and more, with Amazon pre-order links if available...

Stay tuned...
