I had this on pre-order at the same price (about £35) and then cancelled, as I wasn't too sure if it would really be all that much better than the 88 Films version (which you can buy for less than half the cost). Also, just with you saying about getting more Blue Underground titles, today I ordered their 3-disc limited edition of "Dead & Buried" (cover B), which is still available! It's an absolute beauty of a set that includes 4K, Blu-ray, cd soundtrack, and a gorgeous lenticular cover! I ordered from WOWHD.

Millennium Actress is probably Kon's most underrated film but its still a masterpiece. I think its probably the only movie to actually get an emotional response out of me with the "its not about the destination, its about the journey" cliche

I can't recommend Blue Underground enough. They do such good work with thier 4k releases. I bought Zombie and House by the Cemetery when they came out and they impressed me so much that I've purchased every one of thier 4k releases. Zombie especially is great. The Maniac Cop sequels, Vigilante and Daughters of Darkness spring to mind aswell But all in all, if it says Blue Underground on the cover, you won't be disappointed.

I too had a strong visceral reaction to Green Room at the cinema - when the gore started to ramp up (you know the bit), I felt so nauseous that I passed out 😂 I’ve revisited a few times from the safety of home since then, and I adore the film - got that Second Sight LE 4K on the shelf waiting to be cracked open!

Did you check the UK Blu-ray for "Poor Things" for the audio languages already? On the back, only English is listed, but since the US version has several language options in the menu, I wonder if it's the same disc and German dub available. Thanks

Actually, Happy End is not part of Czech New Wave. Yes, movie is from that period (sixties) but it was directed by Oldřich Lipský who begun his career in fifties (so not the FAMU - film school - graduate - as Milos Forman, Vera Chytilová, Jiri Menzel, Jan Nemec and other Czech New Wave directors). And: most important figure is screenwriter Milos Macourek who written or co-written seminal parody, pastiche or metafiction movies which plays with medium and genre and storytelling conventions such as Who Wants to Kill Jessie?, Rumburak, How About a Plate of Spinach? or I Killed Einstein, Gentlemen. Sadly, here in Czechia we can´t buy Happy End on Blu-ray (only import it from Second Run) ´cause National Film Archive which holds the right won´t release BD´s and DVD´s anymore. (Same with folk-horor-exploitation festival picture Svetlonoc from Slovakia which was just announced from Arrow company.)

Streaming in 4k (e.g. Poor Things) doesn't mean blu ray 4k equivalent...in fact, nothing like it. Just look at the bitrates for example. In my experience, 4k streaming in general doesn't even match 1080p blu ray for quality.
