dir. Jonathan Mostow

A-Tier Turbine 4K. Kurt Russell thriller from the 90s. A deep-cut catalog title.

Crash(1996)

6.5/10

dir. David Cronenberg

Arrow Video 4K with Turbine Media releasing a separate European edition. The packaging got praise for quality supplements and the transfer earned an A-Tier rating. One of those Cronenberg films where people call it their most shameless self-indulgent purchase, which is exactly the right energy for a film about car crash fetishism.

Dante's Peak(1997)

6.2/10

dir. Roger Donaldson

A-Tier Kino Lorber 4K. Pierce Brosnan runs from a volcano. Kino has the 4K.

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas(1998)

7.2/10

dir. Terry Gilliam

S-Tier Arrow Video 4K. Terry Gilliam's Hunter S. Thompson adaptation. Arrow's extras package is strong.

Naked Lunch(1991)

7.0/10

dir. David Cronenberg

S-Tier Arrow Video 4K. Cronenberg's Burroughs adaptation with a perfect 5.0 specs score. Arrow's 4K releases have a reputation for better encoding than Criterion's equivalents. The Turbine release also exists for European collectors. Worth knowing this is deeply weird Cronenberg before pressing play.

Possessor(2020)

6.4/10

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. Second Sight's limited edition had people double-dipping from the basic US release. Someone's copy from Diabolik came signed by the director unexpectedly. Green Room is getting the same Second Sight 4K treatment.

Renfield(2023)

6.4/10

dir. Chris McKay

The Walmart steelbook got attention for its artwork, and not in a good way. Multiple comments flagged it as AI-generated art, with spider legs that don't add up. The film itself is fun but lightweight, and most people paired it with Nosferatu as a double feature pick rather than buying it on its own merits.

The Last Emperor(1987)

7.6/10

dir. Bernardo Bertolucci

A dramatic history of Pu Yi, the last of the Emperors of China, from his lofty birth and brief reign in the Forbidden City, the object of worship by half a billion people; through his abdication, his decline and dissolute lifestyle; his exploitation by the invading Japanese, and finally to his obscure existence as just another peasant worker in the People's Republic.
