It was promised. And it’s being delivered.
Last week, Arrow Video announced that they’d be bringing the entire Phantasm franchise to Blu-ray this coming April… in the United Kingdom. Of course, anyone with a Region Free player can get any release from around the world, but many fans were left wondering if the series would be getting a similar release in the United States. Today we’re happy to report that yes, it’s coming.
Well Go USA will be releasing the entire Phantasm collection on Blu-ray March 28th, which will mark the first time Phantasm 3: Lord of the Dead and Phantasm 4: Oblivion have ever been released on Blu-ray. The set, now available for pre-order with a price tag of $79.98, is a six-disc affair, and though we don’t yet have any images to share, we do have the first details.
