BLACK MAGIC RITES – UPDATE

The release dates for our 4K UHD and Blu-ray editions of BLACK MAGIC RITES have now had to be moved to 28 August (UK) and 29 August (US/Canada). The situation is incredibly frustrating and disappointing, but the bottom line is that, due to some eleventh-hour revelations, we've had to re-visit the restoration and undertake some additional scanning in order to make the film look the very best it can. However, rather than rush the job and introduce any risk of error, we want to be absolutely sure the work is done correctly. We sincerely apologise for the delay to the release, but we think you'll consider it worth the wait when you see just how spectacular the film looks!

Edit: Now changed to 18th September.
