‘Devil’ DVD/Blu-Ray Specs And Date Announced

Published

on

After teasing us with just a release month a few weeks ago, Universal Home Entertainment has officially announced the Devil Blu-Ray and DVD for December 21, almost 3 months to the day of when it hit the big screen. Shyamalan’s return to horror (in a producing and story capacity, that is) was a lot better than most people expected, carrying a Twilight Zone vibe and portraying a pretty decent game of 10 Little Indians. Specs are somewhat scarce for the release, and I’m absolutely perplexed by the uHear function, which was apparently included on Ridley Scott’s Robin Hood. Is this better than just rewinding it yourself? Can someone explain?

Watch the Opening ‘Mortal Kombat II’ Battle Scene Now Ahead of Physical Media Release in July

Published

on

Sequel Mortal Kombat II is now available to watch at home on Digital before heading to physical media in July, but you can test your might now and watch the opening scene.

Mortal Kombat director Simon McQuoid returns to the helm for the new sequel from a script by Jeremy Slater (“Moon Knight,” Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire).

In Mortal Kombat II, the fan-favorite champions — now joined by Johnny Cage (Karl Urban) — are pitted against one another in the ultimate, no-holds barred, gory battle to defeat the dark rule of Shao Kahn that threatens the very existence of the Earthrealm and its defenders.

Adeline Rudolph, Jessica McNamee, Josh Lawson, Ludi Lin, Mehcad Brooks, Tati Gabrielle, Lewis Tan, Damon Herriman, Chin Han, Tadanobu Asano, Joe Taslim, and Hiroyuki Sanada are also part of the ensemble cast of Mortal Kombat II fighters.

Watch the opening below, which introduces a young Kitana (Sophia Xu) as Emperor Shao Kahn (Martyn Ford) prepares to conquer her father, King Jerrod (Desmond Chiam), and her kingdom of Edenia. It sets the sequel’s entire plot in motion.

From New Line Cinema, James Wan’s Atomic Monster, Broken Road Productions, and Fireside Films, Mortal Kombat II is rated R for “strong bloody violence and gore, and language.”

Look for Mortal Kombat II to arrive on 4K UHD, Blu-ray and DVD on July 28, 2026.
