Pumpkinhead(1988)

6.2/10

dir. Stan Winston

A-Tier

When a group of teenagers inadvertently kill his only son, Ed Harley seeks the powers of a backwoods witch to bring the child back to life.

The Terminator(1984)

8.1/10

dir. James Cameron

A-Tier

Warner 40th Anniversary 4K with Dolby Vision and Atmos, scanned from the original negative. Collectors are split on the AI enhancement tools Cameron used in the transfer, with some calling it a revelation and others wanting the grain back. The mono track is worth trying after the Atmos mix.

Warner Bros. · 4K + Blu-ray

Aliens(1986)

8.4/10

dir. James Cameron

C-Tier

C-Tier from 20th Century Studios, which is a sore spot for a film this good. The 4K exists and people buy it, but the conversation is always about when someone will do a proper restoration. Cameron in 4K should look better than this.
