The Arrow Thread

[Justin101]

It’s probably because the 4k master is already available, Koch Media (I think) put it out either last year or the year before. The transfer by all accounts is crap.

I was initially thinking I’d hold off getting this but all the new supplementary material is making me consider it.

I'm happy with the last trilogy boxset, The Scarlet Box. I still haven't watched 2 or 3 or half the extras.

I'd buy Bloodline as a stand alone disc.

Definitely want Witness. Whilst House by the Cemetery i'll pick up when it's £9 this time next year.

[Demdike@Cult Labs]

So yet again the best release - Witness - is US only and the UK gets shafted once more with re-releases.

[peter alex]

we in the uk always get shafted so you think we would have got used to it by now but we haven't and witness is the film we need cause we have not had a release since 2014 and that had no special features on the disc at all so just more re-releases by arrow in the uk.

Very true

Poor show Arrow. I'd get a standalone of Hellraiser Bloodline but I'm not forking out for another boxset. Particularly when it's less than half the series. I may well get The House By the Cemetery Ltd Edition. Shame about Witness though I confess I've never seen the film.

HOUSE BY THE CEMETERY for me. I’m happy enough with the previous HELLRAISER boxset.

[will graham]

Yeah hellraiser 4 would be great as a standalone release.
Its one of those films Harvey weinstein cut up to shreds and reshot, theres definitely early cenobites that r shot but did not make it in the final release so that workprint is a must see.

But like others have said, no way am I buying the first 3 just for that!
The new features on the other discs r just fluff to bulk up. This is all about making people buy/pay more so that they can get hold of part 4.
