JAWS 3 (1983) SteelBook Limited Edition

 

Release Date: July 23rd

 

   

 

The most famous shark of all time is back…bigger and more terrifying than ever in Jaws 3 starring Dennis Quaid, Bess Armstrong, Simon MacCorkindale and Louis Gossett Jr. Everyone at Florida's Sea World is thrilled with the new "Undersea Kingdom," a maze of underwater plexiglass tunnels that permits visitors to get closer to marine life than ever before. The opening ceremonies include many important guests…and one uninvited baby shark who accidentally enters the park's lagoon through a faulty sea gate and subsequently dies. The young shark's 35-foot mother soon follows her offspring, creating the most horrifying tale of terror ever filmed in the water. Directed by Joe Alves, the original Jaws designer, and co-written by Carl Gottlieb who penned the first two blockbusters, this action-packed adventure will have you screaming for your life.

Wow. The Arrow August UK release list has two of my all-time favs; Heathers and Silence of the Lambs. On the back of the Drive announcement last week, simply epic.

MJD76: Wow. The Arrow August UK release list has two of my all-time favs; Heathers and Silence of the Lambs. On the back of the Drive announcement last week, simply epic.

 

HEATHERS (1988) Release Date: August 5th. £22

 

Dolby Vision/HDR10 • Original 1.0 mono, and optional stereo 2.0 and 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio sound • 1.85:1 • 104 Minutes

 

 

Widely acknowledged as a true cult classic of modern American cinema, Heathers has captured the imaginations of troubled teenagers the world over with its acerbic satire of the sugar coated high school movies of the 1980s...

 

At Westerburg High School, an elite clique of snobby girls known as "Heathers" reign supreme. Smart and popular, Veronica (Winona Ryder) is a reluctant member of the gang and disapproves of the other girls' cruel behaviour. When Veronica and her mysterious new boyfriend, JD (Christian Slater), play a trick on the clique leader, Heather Chandler (Kim Walker), and accidentally poison her, they make it appear a suicide. But it soon becomes clear to Veronica that JD is a sociopath intent on vengefully killing the school's popular students. She races to stop him, clashing with the clique's new leader, Heather Duke (Shannen Doherty), and leading to an explosive final confrontation with her troubled former lover.

 

Directed by Michael Lehmann, Heathers pushed the teen comedy into dark and nightmarish territory and is distinguished by the career defining central performances of its stars Winona Ryder and Christian Slater. The film is presented here on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray alongside a wealth of extra material providing insight into the making of this hilarious and shocking film.

 

 

 

THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS (1991) Release Date: August 26th. £30

 

Dolby Vision/HDR10 • Newly restored original lossless 2.0 stereo soundtrack Optional lossless 5.1 soundtrack • 1.85:1 • 118 Minutes

 

 

Following an early career directing low-budget exploitation movies for producer Roger Corman, by the 1990s, Jonathan Demme was known best for making quirky comedies (Something Wild, Married to the Mob) and music documentaries (Stop Making Sense) - that is, until he signed on to adapt Thomas Harris' best-selling thriller The Silence of the Lambs. The resulting film - a sombre, enthralling nightmare vision of psychopathology - became a five-time Academy Award® winner and made cannibal mastermind Hannibal Lecter a household name.

 

FBI agent Clarice Starling (Jodie Foster) races against time to stop a serial killer, nicknamed "Buffalo Bill" (Ted Levine), before he kills again. To solve the case, she risks her own sanity by consulting with malevolent psychiatrist Hannibal Lecter (Anthony Hopkins). A master manipulator, the sinister Dr Lecter offers crucial information that may be key to unlocking the killer's identity - but at a price. Clarice must open primal events from her past to Lecter's menacing curiosity and confront the trauma that fuels her search for justice.

 

A deeply disturbing examination of human evil, The Silence of the Lambs changed the face of the serial killer genre and remains a highly influential, landmark classic of mystery, suspense and psychological horror.

NO WAY OUT (1987)

 

4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray (Region A Locked) • Amazon US • July 30th

 

 

Dolby Vision/HDR10 • 5.1 Surround and Lossless 2.0 Audio • 1.85:1 • 114 Minutes

 

Charged with high-voltage tension and suspense, the electrifying thriller No Way Out is a tightly wound tale of intrigue set in the political whirl of Washington and the inner corridors of the Pentagon. In this ’80s box-office smash, Kevin Costner stars as naval hero Lieutenant Commander Tom Farrell, the new CIA liaison for Defense Secretary David Brice, a high-ranking master of political maneuvers played by the dynamic Gene Hackman. Sexy Sean Young is a gorgeous party girl who plays politics herself as Brice’s mistress and Farrell’s secret lover. And Will Patton is the Secretary’s ruthless aide, architect of a cover-up scheme that protects his boss, but entraps Farrell, putting his life in danger. With its serpentine plot twists, narrow escapes and true-to-life Pentagon setting, No Way Out is the harrowing story of an innocent man caught in a complex web of romance and murder, power and corruption. Stylishly directed by Roger Donaldson from Kenneth Fearing’s classic noir novel, The Big Clock. The stellar supporting cast includes Howard Duff, George Dzundza  and Fred Thompson.

4K of The Long Good Friday turned up the other day. Watched it last night. Thought it looked yummy. OK, I'd probably think T2 would look yummy, but yummy is how it looked.

TAXI DRIVER (1976) SteelBook Edition [$75.98] August 7th

 

 

Pleased to see this being made available through JB in NZ, though still coming to grips with the price. I guess it's still $10 less than Amazon, being GST inclusive. Would be good to know if JB also intend to get the new Drive 4k steelbook in, which is also a hefty $75 Sony release. (Looks real pretty though).

 

On the postal side of things, the only steelbook I've ordered from Amazon (in April) came in a box, while standard releases from the same order arrived in plastic envelope. It suggested some discernment on their end, which is most welcome and gives me a bit of confidence going forward. 

 

My copy of Reservoir Dogs from the Aussie JB 2-for-1 arrived yesterday, though appears Pulp Fiction hasn't been sent yet. I imagine it was a popular choice during the promotion. For both I broke my own rule not to upgrade movies I already had on blu ray, but being all-time top 10 for me, couldn't resist.

I would like standard releases of Taxi Driver and Drive as I already have UK Exclusive Blu-ray SteelBooks for both of them, which, IMO are nicer than the new Steels.
