dir. David Cronenberg
Cronenberg and Mortensen at their best. This was the last movie ever released on VHS, which is the kind of trivia that makes a collector want to own every format it ever came on. Makes a great double feature with Eastern Promises.

S-Tier Criterion 4K. Collectors had been asking for this for years and Criterion delivered. William Hurt's performance and the hallucinatory sequences look wild in HDR.

S-Tier Arrow Video 4K. Alex Proyas' sci-fi noir. Arrow's release is loaded with extras and the dark cityscapes work well in HDR.

S-Tier Criterion 4K. Spine #1299, and people immediately started speculating about what #1300 would be. William Hurt won the Oscar for this. It's a well-loved title in the collection, and the 4K announcement generated real excitement among Criterion collectors.

A-Tier Arrow Video 4K. The 1998 sci-fi film that people remember being bad but still love. Arrow gave it a proper restoration, and the artwork on the slip got compliments.
dir. Lawrence Kasdan
During an extreme heatwave, a beautiful Florida woman and a seedy lawyer engage in an affair while plotting the murder of her rich husband.
