I remember getting a blu ray player in the first place because so many things were "only" coming out on blu ray (especially the extras). Not another format jump so soon! A nice 4K transfer on a regular blu ray ala Arrow's Thing set would be a better choice for Suspiria fans I think! And money spent on extras instead of a new format I'm sure would be preferred. | Modern Blu-ray players can upscale almost anything to 4K UHD - from potato quality internet clips to 1080p Blu-ray, as long as you own a 4K UHD TV.
4K UHD Blu-rays need their own players, though. It's a new format, and the new devices aren't exactly cheap at the moment. Totally agree. |
