S-Tier 4K from Plaion Pictures. The toga party and late-70s college photography work well in HDR, and it goes on sale often enough that there is no reason to pay full price.

A-Tier Paramount 4K. Ron Burgundy in HDR. Paramount's comedy catalog has been reliable on 4K.

Ash Williams and his girlfriend Linda find a log cabin in the woods with a voice recording from an archeologist who had recorded himself reciting ancient chants from "The Book of the Dead." As they play the recording an evil power is unleashed taking over Linda's body.

Kino Lorber 4K. Early impressions are positive, though some shots remain grainy due to the source material. The Henry Mancini score in lossless is the draw for Pink Panther fans.
