King of New York(1990)

dir. Abel Ferrara

S-Tier Arrow Video 4K. Abel Ferrara's crime film with Walken. Lionsgate put out a re-release with a steelbook that collectors found ugly, and most people are happy sticking with their Arrow or StudioCanal versions. The 4-hour documentary included with the Arrow release is almost as good as the film itself.

Kino Lorber announced a 4K UHD + Blu-ray set with Dolby Vision, HDR10, and a native 4K master, but the late-2025 window has slipped without a new date. The 2023 Via Vision Region-free Blu-ray is still the cleanest presentation you can actually buy today.
