Pale Rider(1985)

7.2/10

dir. Clint Eastwood

A-Tier

A-Tier Warner Bros. 4K. Eastwood's western, released alongside Dirty Harry and The Outlaw Josey Wales in a 4K wave. The scenery is going to benefit from the upgrade. Steelbook art across all three was praised, and Amazon had them at $27.99 USD before raising the price.

The Thing(1982)

8.1/10

dir. John Carpenter

A-Tier

Carpenter's practical effects hold up better than most modern CGI and the Universal 4K is A-Tier, though the missing Dolby Vision is the one complaint collectors have. Signed copies from convention appearances are circulating and the Titans of Cult edition has been restocking through Books-a-Million.
