‘Ghostbusters: Afterlife’ Digital HD, Blu-ray, & 4K Release Includes Deleted Scene, Easter Eggs and More! [Trailer]
While Jason Reitman‘s Ghostbusters: Afterlife isn’t quite the smash-hit Columbia Pictures was hoping for, it performed well enough to breathe new life into the franchise. This official sequel continues to haunt audiences in theaters, but is also heading home to Digital HD on January 4, 2022. Yes, you can watch the third Ghostbusters at home next week.
As reported last week, it will then make its way to 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD on February 1, 2022, albeit we now have a full list of extra features, which include a single deleted scene, behind-the-scenes featurettes, and, no commentary. Here’s a breakdown:
- We Got One! Easter Eggs Revealed
- Ghostbusters: A Look Back
- A Look Ahead
- Bringing Ecto-1 Back to Life
- The Gearhead’s Guide to Ghostbusters Gadgets
- Special Effects: The Ghosts of Afterlife
- Deleted Scene: Is It Ever Too Late?
- Summoning the Spirit: Making Ghostbusters: Afterlife
The DVD will only include “Summoning the Spirit: Making Ghostbusters: Afterlife”.
Ghostbusters, Ghostbusters II and Ghostbusters: Afterlife will be included in a massive Ultimate Collection on the same day. Paul Feig’s Ghostbusters (2016), which takes place in a different universe entirely, will only be included as a digital download. More details on that here.
“Ghostbusters: Afterlife crosses the streams of sentimentality and fan service,” Meagan Navarro wrote in her review. You can read about the box office and various cameos and surprises by clicking here. Fingers crossed for a fourth Ghostbusters.
Get ready for double the fun, protagonists, and body count when Ready or Not 2: Here I Come explodes on streaming next week.
Just in time for the fireworks, the sequel makes its streaming debut on Hulu and Disney+ on July 2.
Directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin & Tyler Gillett are back, along with Samara Weaving, for more hide and slay mayhem.
Picking up moments after the all-out attack from the Le Domas family in the first Ready or Not movie, Grace (Weaving) discovers she’s reached the next level of the nightmarish game — and this time with her estranged sister Faith (Kathryn Newton) at her side. Grace has one chance to survive, keep her sister alive, and claim the High Seat of the Council that controls the world. Four rival families are hunting her for the throne, and whoever wins rules it all.
That means a higher body count and even more explosive carnage. Just how much? A whopping 325 gallons worth, the directors previously told BD.
Sarah Michelle Gellar, Shawn Hatosy, Néstor Carbonell, David Cronenberg, Elijah Wood, Kevin Durand, Olivia Cheng, Varun Saranga, and Daniel Beirne also star.
I wrote in my review for Bloody Disgusting, “More is more in Ready or Not 2. Bigger stakes, larger playing field, a higher (and more gruesome) body count, and even double the protagonists. It’s all designed to deliver maximum crowd-pleasing fun.”
The horror-comedy sequel is written by Guy Busick and R. Christopher Murphy.
