2 Peter Arne films on 4K Blu-ray, ranked S to D by transfer quality.
dir. Gordon Hessler
Gordon Hessler's 1971 Poe adaptation gets its first 4K through the Hammer Presents line, with Robards and Lom in the lead and a July 20 ship in the UK and Canada. Hessler's original dreamlike cut was famously simplified for the AIP theatrical release, and Hammer hasn't said yet whether the disc carries the director's vision, the studio version, or both. Packaging and audio specs aren't posted yet.

Kino Lorber 4K. Early impressions are positive, though some shots remain grainy due to the source material. The Henry Mancini score in lossless is the draw for Pink Panther fans.
