Here in the States, Well Go USA released a Phantasm complete collection Blu-ray set last year, which included all five films but was extremely limited and now sells for hundreds of dollars. More recently, they put out the collection on DVD, which is a whole hell of a lot more affordable. Next, standalone releases of the third and fourth installments are hitting Blu-ray!

We recently learned that Well Go USA will release Phantasm III: Lord of the Dead and Phantasm IV: Oblivion on individual Region 1 Blu-rays on September 18.

Via Phantasm Archives, we’ve now got cover art and release details…

PHANTASM III BONUS FEATURES:

  • Phantasm III: Behind the Scenes
  • Deleted Scene
  • Audio Commentary with Stars A. Michael Baldwin and Angus Scrimm
  • Trailer 

PHANTASM IV BONUS FEATURES:

  • Phantasm IV: Behind the Scenes
  • Audio Commentary with Director Don Coscarelli and Actors Reggie Bannister and Angus Scrimm
  • Trailer 

The Complete Collection Blu-ray set that Well Go put out last year had much more bonus content for both films, so that has proven to be a good investment for all who snagged it.

When best friends Glen (Stephen Dorff) and Terry (Louis Tripp) stumble across a mysterious crystalline rock in Glen’s backyard, they quickly dig up the newly sodden lawn searching for more precious stones.

The teenagers soon understand what evil they’ve released as they are overcome with an assortment of horrific experiences. With fiendish followers invading suburbia, it’s now up to the kids to discover the secret that can lock The Gate forever . . . if it’s not too late.
