‘Venom: Let There Be Carnage’ Comes Home to 4K and Blu-ray Just in Time for Christmas

Published

on

Now in its sixth week of theatrical release, Sony’s Venom: Let There Be Carnage is still in the top 5 at the domestic box office, thus far scaring up $424 million worldwide.

You’ll be able to watch the Andy Serkis-directed sequel at home this holiday season, as we’ve learned that Let There Be Carnage comes to Blu-ray and 4K on December 14, 2021!

Expect the Digital release a bit earlier, reportedly on November 23rd.

Meagan Navarro writes in her review for Bloody Disgusting that Venom: Let There Be Carnage “hits the ground running and doesn’t stop for the brisk 90-minute runtime. It’s the perfect runtime for a rom-com, but as a superhero movie, it gets sloppy.”

She continues, “But it’s hard not to be charmed by Venom attempting to cheer up his host with a lavish breakfast and pep talks. Or a dose of self-love and acceptance in the form of a confessional mic drop at a costume party. If you’re in the mood for silly, this sequel nails it. But for an epic showdown among monsters, it lacks bite.”

Tom Hardy is back as Eddie Brock, who is of course also the alien symbiote known as Venom. Woody Harrelson, who popped up as Cletus Kasady in the first film’s post-credits scene, ultimately becomes Carnage in the film. Michelle Williams is also back in the sequel to the smash hit movie from 2018, with Naomie Harris co-starring as Shriek.

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.
