Displaying items by tag: Daleks’ Invasion Earth 2150 AD 4K review

All right, it’s been a busy week here at The Bits. And we’ve got a bunch of ground to cover today, so let’s get right to it.

First, some a couple of disc reviews…

Tim has completed his exhaustive coverage of Severin Films new Doctor Who releases with a look at both the Blu-ray and 4K versions of their Total Extermination: The Peter Cushing Doctor Who Collection, which includes Dr. Who and the Daleks (1965) and Daleks’ Invasion Earth 2150 AD (1966).

And we have a lot more new disc reviews on the way. For my part, I’m currently working on a review of a major upcoming Criterion 4K title, and of course I’ll be finishing up our Bond 4K reviews as well early next week.

In terms of announcement news today, we have a bunch of stuff to report, starting with the fact that Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has just officially announced that they’re releasing Peter Yates’ Krull (1983) in 4K Ultra HD Steelbook on 9/16! [Read on here...]

All right, as you may have noticed, we’ve been having some functionality issue here at The Bits website in the last week or two. I’m gonna talk about that a little more in a second, so hold that thought.

But first, I wanted to call your attention to a bunch of new disc reviews we’ve completed here at the site lately…

Over the last three or four days, I’ve completed detailed reviews of four of the films in MGM’s new 007: James Bond – Sean Connery 6-Films Collection in 4K Ultra HD, including Terence Young’s Dr. No (1962), From Russia with Love (1963), and Thunderball (1965), as well as Guy Hamilton’s Goldfinger (1964).

Now, I was in the middle of reviewing You Only Live Twice (1967) when I discovered that the copy of the film on 4K disc in my set was defective (I’m having a layer switch issue late in the film—just a bad disc I think, not a widespread issue). So I’m awaiting a replacement copy from WBDHE and I’ll resume my review work on the set as soon as it arrives. in the meantime, I may knock out another 4K review or two, so be sure to stay tuned.

Also today, Tim has posted reviews of Wyott Ordrung’s Monster from the Ocean Floor (1954) on Blu-ray from Film Masters, as well as Gordon Flemying’s Dr. Who and the Daleks (1965) and Daleks’ Invasion Earth 2150 AD (1966) in 4K Ultra HD from the good people at Severin Films.

Dennis has turned in his thoughts on Glenn Gordon Caron’s Clean and Sober (1988) on Blu-ray from the Warner Archive Collection.

And Stephen has offered a genuinely in-depth look at our old friend Vincent Pereira’s A Better Place (1997), which has been newly remastered on Blu-ray from View Askew and the MVD Rewind Collection!

All are well worth your time, so please give them a look. [Read on here...]
