Brian De Palma movies available on 4K Blu-ray, ranked by transfer quality.
dir. Brian De Palma
S-Tier Criterion 4K. De Palma's best film according to a lot of people. The Criterion reviews have been positive.
Criterion Collection · 4K + Blu-ray
S-Tier Sony 4K. De Palma's erotic thriller. The transfer preserves the slow-zoom voyeuristic camerawork that makes the film work.
Sony Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray
S-Tier Arrow Video 4K. De Palma and Pacino's follow-up to Scarface. The Zavvi exclusive box set with the steelbook inside is the collector's item.
Arrow Video · 4K + Blu-ray
S-Tier Arrow Video 4K. De Palma's split-screen thriller. Arrow's transfer is well regarded.
Paramount's 2022 4K scored 4.5 on blu-ray.com with natural grain and a punchier audio mix than the old Blu-ray. Avoid the $11 USD Paramount 4K Preorders line on Amazon, which ships in DVD-sized cases with no special features and is cheaply produced on purpose. The Best Buy steelbook has better artwork if you want the premium version.

People who have owned this on every format from VHS through 4K say each upgrade felt meaningful. Often discounted to $10-11 USD new, which makes it one of the cheapest high-quality 4K discs in Universal's catalog. The special edition with the "World is Yours" statue and the 1932 original is a collector's item in its own right. A-Tier transfer with the neon and white suits looking exactly how you'd hope in HDR.
