Martin(1978)

6.8

dir. George A. Romero

S-Tier Second Sight Films 4K. Romero's vampire film from 1978, and big news hit when the director's cut was found. Second Sight had a 4K already in the works, and collectors wanted them to delay the release to include the director's cut rather than force a double dip. The Dawn of the Dead treatment is what people are hoping for.

MaXXXine(2024)

6.3

dir. Ti West

S-Tier Second Sight Films 4K. Ti West's third film in the X trilogy. People are holding out for either a steelbook or a trilogy box set. A German steelbook from Capelight exists with embossing.

Mean Streets(1973)

dir. Martin Scorsese

S-Tier Second Sight Films 4K. Early Scorsese, loud and rough. Criterion's 4K got a negative review from blu-ray.com that collectors told each other to ignore, arguing the reviewer was comparing it to the old Blu-ray instead of judging the transfer on its own terms. Second Sight co-funded the new restoration and will likely use a Fidelity in Motion encode, which typically beats Criterion's Pixelogic encoding.

dir. Brandon Cronenberg

S-Tier Second Sight Films 4K with a 4.5 score. Brandon Cronenberg's body-horror thriller, and one of the most underrated horror films of the 2020s.

Pusher(1996)

dir. Nicolas Winding Refn

Magnolia Home Entertainment putting Refn's debut on 4K. Second Sight already has an S-Tier release, so this one needs to bring something new. Most people discover this film backwards after Drive, and the disc crowd has been asking for a US-friendly release.

Scanners(1981)

dir. David Cronenberg

Second Sight's 4K trilogy box has some of the best cover art in the boutique space. Only the first film is actually in 4K, which caught some buyers off guard. The original Scanners remains a Cronenberg essential and Second Sight's limited edition treatment gives it the packaging it deserves. Videodrome in 4K from Criterion is the companion disc most collectors pair it with.

The Brood(1979)

dir. David Cronenberg

Second Sight Limited Edition 4K. Part of Cronenberg's body horror trilogy alongside Scanners and Videodrome, and the one that established his obsession with flesh as a medium for psychological damage. The Second Sight packaging matches Scanners and Crimes of the Future for shelf consistency.

A-Tier Second Sight Films 4K. Zulawski's 1981 horror with Isabelle Adjani. The Second Sight limited edition sold out at OrbitDVD within hours.
