OPERA
Format: Dual-Format (BD/DVD)
Release date: 19 November

"Dario Argento's horror masterpiece, restored in 2K with instruction from the maestro himself and with reference to his own print.

Dario Argento (SUSPIRIA) returns to CultFilms with this breath-taking new restoration of his visionary horror masterpiece OPERA. Splattered with stylistic bloodshed and soaring cinematography, OPERA shows Italy's master of horror at the very height of his game.

When young understudy Betty (Cristina Marsillach) takes the lead role in a new operatic production of Verdi's Macbeth, she soon attracts the attention of a knife-wielding psycho who forces her to watch as he despatches her friends and colleagues with sadistic delight. Can Betty free herself from this unending nightmare or does a more terrifying fate await? OPERA is a ravishing return to the giallo style Argento made his name with, awash with black-gloved killers, lavish bloodletting and the director's trademark Grand Guignol excess.

CultFilms is proud to bring you this gore-soaked terror classic in a stunning new 2K restoration, carried out with instructions from the maestro himself and in reference to his own, preferred, original cinema print.

Anybody got their opera yet?
No dispatch email for me yet.
Hoping they post soon as money was taken upon order.

[gag]

At least the cover artwork decent a lot better than over 75% of crap a lot of companies produce for their films these days .

Not ordering this until someone actually says it's arrived....

[Nostalgic]

Will post when (if) it arrives, they shouldn't really put the whole "order from us get it early" thing unless they plan on posting early!

I'm curious to see how different it looks to the Scorpion release from earlier in the year. I won't be buying it again though, I'm just curious to see if it looks the same!
