    The Changeling 4K Blu-ray Review

    by Mark Costello
    The Changeling 4K Blu-ray Review
    Martin Scorsese has Peter Medak’s classic haunter at number six on his list of all time top horror films. And he knows a thing or two about film does our Marty. Second Sight now bring us George C Scott’s masterful chiller on two new 4K editions and while maybe not the home run several of their previous horror classics have been this year, it's still a worthwhile addition to any horror fan's collection.

    by Simon Crust
    Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania 4K Blu-ray Review
    Is Small Beautiful? Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania might pursuade you. But another Disney disc that has better presentation on its streaming service might not.

    Cocaine Bear 4K Blu-ray Review

    by Mark Costello
    Cocaine Bear 4K Blu-ray Review
    This year’s meme given cinematic life proves to be both better and worse than any sort of expectations one may have coming to a film named ‘Cocaine Bear’. And yes, there will be expectations. The 4K UHD disc from Mediumrare however, a 4K exclusive to the UK, disappoints with a baffling audio track selection and nothing to justify its significant price hike over equally specced digital versions.

    Restart the Earth Movie Review

    by Tom Davies
    Restart the Earth Movie Review
    A brisk, inoffensive bit of silly science fiction that trades purely in the recycling of the movies, TV shows and videogames currently in the zeitgeist. This Chinese post-apocalyptic action flick doesn’t attempt anything new, but boy does it ever rattle along.

    by Simon Crust
    Knock at the Cabin 4K Blu-ray Review
    From director M. Night Shyamalan, Knock at the Cabin has a 4K Blu-ray picture and sound to sacrifice yourself for, but would you do if for this story?

    by Cas Harlow
    Brotherhood of the Wolf 4K Blu-ray Review
    The ultimate multi-genre blend, Christophe Gans 2001 period murder mystery action horror thriller - with Mark Dacascos and martial arts - is one of the great underrated gems from the last quarter-century, landing in a stunningly restored 4-disc 4K set from Studiocanal.

    The Four Musketeers 4K Blu-ray Review

    by Mark Costello
    The Four Musketeers 4K Blu-ray Review
    Part II of Richard Lester's swashbuckler opus and the second half of Alexandre Dumas’ novel makes it to the screen in an altogether more action-packed and darker affair, which meant a bigger spectacle at the expense of the first film’s joyful exuberance. Sound familiar? Another Studiocanal 4K restoration, after watching the previous film, the only question you really want to know is…what’s the teal like on this one?

    It’s a battle of the titans in this month’s Blu-ray release schedule: middle-aged, middle-class female British director goes head-to-head with Asian vampires across seven films, with a smattering of psychological bangers, coming of agers and Chow Yun Fat looking seriously cool rounding out the 1080p goodies this merry month of May.

    The Three Musketeers (1973) 4K Blu-ray Review

    by Mark Costello
    The Three Musketeers (1973) 4K Blu-ray Review
    Richard Lester's joyous and irreverent swashbuckler remains the blueprint for so many of Hollywood’s blockbusters. The starriest of starry casts has an absolute blast in the adaptation of Alexandre Dumas’ classic novel that remains the cinematic version to beat. And with Studiocanal producing a brand new 4K restoration to celebrate the film’s half-century, the time is always perfect to revisit this utterly masterful romp.

    Shiver of the Vampires 4K Blu-ray Review
    Indicator interestingly chose French horror psychedelic surrealist Jean Rollin for their first foray into 4K. And this, one of his early vampire classics, is certainly a helluva way to sneak your first taste of Rollin’s brand of exquisite sensuality and playful cinematic poetry…
