“House on Haunted Hill” is a B-horror classic and one of my favorite films of its era. Vincent Price’s performance ranks as one of his best. Film Master has given the picture a new Blu-ray release.
“A Nightmare on Elm Street: The Dream Master” was the most successful Elm Street film until “Freddy vs. Jason.” While the script is weaker than the prior film, the direction by Renny Harlin works. The picture is style over substance, but has plenty of nostalgic charm.
“A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge” is one of the most reviled (and most beloved) horror sequels ever made. Warner has given the film an excellent 4K release in their 4K “A Nightmare on Elm Street” collection.
Warner Archive have given “The Return of Doctor X” an attractive Blu-ray release. This is a curio because it is the only science-fiction horror film to feature Humphrey Bogart.
”The Hitcher” was misunderstood by critics, but it is one of the best thrillers of the Eighties. Featuring one of the great villain performances by Rutger Hauer, the film is now on 4K!
Synapse Films has given Mike Mendez’s wild and crude 2000 horror-comedy “The Convent” a 4K UHD release. It’s a fun and irreverent movie that will appeal to those of us who grew up in that era.
Wes Craven’s seminal horror masterpiece “A Nightmare on Elm Street” has been given a good looking and great sounding 4K release. The film is one of the most frightening ever made.
For those who can find the humor in a certain type of film failure, “Cutting Class” is a wealth of riches. I had a blast watching the 4K UHD release from MVD Visual.
“Pet Sematary: Bloodlines” is a prequel to Stephen King’s horror classic. Despite some good ideas, the film fails to generate tension or craft compelling characters. Paramount has given the film a good 4K UHD presentation.
Shout! Factory has given the Stephen King adaptation “Silver Bullet” a 4K UHD release with a brand new transfer. Fans of the film will be impressed by the 4K upgrade.
