Displaying items by tag: Lifeforce 4K review

All right… we hope you guys all had a good weekend, inclement weather and other current events aside.

As you might expect, we have a few new disc reviews for you to enjoy today…

First, Stephen has taken a look at Tobe Hooper’s Lifeforce (1985) in 4K Ultra HD from Imprint Films.

Tim has offered his thoughts on Mark A.Z. Dippé’s Spawn (1997) in 4K from Arrow Video.

And Stuart has shared his take on Vincente Minnelli’s The Cobweb (1955) on Blu-ray from the Warner Archive Collection.

More reviews are definitely forthcoming, so be sure to keep checking back all week.

Now then, we’ve got a couple news items that need to be covered today, but we’re going to start with a new Disney announcement…

Walt Disney Home Entertainment has officially set the CG-animated Zootopia 2 (2025) for Blu-ray, DVD, and 4K Ultra HD release on 3/3, with the Digital release expected tomorrow on 1/27. [Read on here...]

We’ve got several new 4K and Blu-ray reviews for you all to enjoy today, including...

Stephen’s exhaustive and in-depth take on David Fincher’s Panic Room (2002) in 4K Steelbook from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, as well as his thoughts on Peter R. Hunt’s Shout at the Devil (1976) on Blu-ray from Kino Lorber Studio Classics, and also Tobe Hooper’s Lifeforce (1985) in 4K Ultra HD from Arrow Video in the UK. And for the record, I think Stephen’s take on Panic Room is right on the money and well worth reading for 4K enthusiasts. (Especially you young whippersnappers who seem to think a 4K disc must be absolutely reference quality to have any value—gather ‘round, Professor Bjork is teaching class.)

My review of Sergio Leone’s Once Upon a Time in the West (1968) in 4K Ultra HD from Italy’s Eagle Pictures via their 4Kult line, a disc that features an encode optimized for a 100GB disc (and which is a notable improvement over the Paramount Presents 4K release).

Dennis thoughts on Carl Reiner’s Summer Rental (1985) on Blu-ray from Kino Lorber Studio Classics.

And finally Tim’s look at the excellent Tom and Jerry: The Complete CinemaScope Collection on Blu-ray from our friends at the Warner Archive Collection.

More reviews are on the way this week, including my thoughts on Gladiator II and Amadeus in 4K, Tim’s look at Arrow’s Mexico Trilogy in 4K, and more. So be sure to keep your eyes peeled for those.

In announcement news today, Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment has now confirmed that non-Steelbook 4K versions of all the recent Clint Eastwood titles are due on 4/15 as well, including Dirty Harry (1971), The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976), and Pale Rider (1985). It looks like all three films will feature new Dolby Atmos mixes with HDR10 high dynamic range. You can see the Amaray covers below the break. [Read on here...]
