S-Tier Arrow Video 4K, but buyer beware. This disc has a reputation for read errors and pixelation across multiple players, and Amazon has it flagged as "frequently returned." Some people fixed it with a thorough microfiber wipe, others had to swap copies. The film was shot in 3D and that's still the preferred way to watch it. The 3D disc included with the 4K is reportedly better than the previous 3D release.

The black and white photography in 4K is consistently cited as reference quality for the format. The 30th Anniversary steelbook is the current edition most people are buying. Paramount's 4K handling of their prestige catalog has been strong, and this is one of the best examples. Not a film anyone watches casually, but the one everyone owns.

Shang-Chi must confront the past he thought he left behind when he is drawn into the web of the mysterious Ten Rings organization.
Paramount's A-Tier 4K is frequently one of the first discs new OLED owners buy. The $10.99 Paramount combo releases in DVD-sized cases generated heated debate because they strip special features and feel cheap, but at that price people grabbed them anyway. Scorsese citing I Walked with a Zombie as a major influence on this film is the kind of deep-cut connection that Criterion collectors appreciate. The steelbook is a frequent haul photo staple.

88 Films A-Tier 4K. The boutique packaging from 88 Films landed well, and the disc looks good for a mid-90s sci-fi horror title. Collector interest is light but the people who own it seem happy with the release.
