S-Tier Arrow Video 4K. Carpenter's Lovecraftian horror, and the Arrow limited edition sold out fast. People who buy direct from Arrow have had fulfillment issues, so the recommendation is to order from OrbitDVD or Diabolik instead. Alan Wake 2 players keep drawing parallels to the Sutter Cane storyline.

A-Tier Universal 4K. The weakest Jurassic Park, but Universal's new Dolby Vision remaster actually fixed the color timing issues from the original 4K. The old transfer had a weird tan cast that the new version corrected. There's debate about whether the new Atmos remix is too heavy-handed compared to the original DTS-X mix. The remastered disc was $14.99 USD on Amazon pre-order, which is basically impulse territory.

A-Tier Second Sight Films 4K. Zulawski's 1981 horror with Isabelle Adjani. The Second Sight limited edition sold out at OrbitDVD within hours. There are questions about the quality of different 4K transfers, since the French version had poor gamma and an extreme blue push. Second Sight's version and the Umbrella release are the ones collectors are weighing.

A new technologically-superior Soviet nuclear sub, the Red October, is heading for the U.S. coast under the command of Captain Marko Ramius. The American government thinks Ramius is planning to attack. Lone CIA analyst Jack Ryan has a different idea: he thinks Ramius is planning to defect, but he has only a few hours to find him and prove it - because the entire Russian naval and air commands are trying to find Ramius, too. The hunt is on!
