PHENOMENA (1985) SYNAPSE 4K UHD REVIEW ** More Argento On 4K Is Never A Bad Thing!

[@venkman6160]

Hey Ken, I love that you bring up the soundtrack. I ordered myself an original Italian pressing of the vinyl last year and I swear it gets more play than anything else I own.

[@midlevelmedia]

Ohhh dude I loved it! So good!

[@blindragepod]

My favorite Argento.

[@Jowurel]

I’ve been keeping my eye on this one

[@mattmardigan]

Phenomena is one of my friends, number one favorite movie and we saw it on VHS at the scarecrow video in Seattle for a special screening. Exciting this is getting a 4K restoration, thank you for the review, sounds like the transfer is great, and there’s multiple cuts of the foam and has, no special features so glad they did this round justice for this release. Thanks for the video.

[@kevinkelley3906]

I remember it was playing at my Aunt and Uncles house. It just caught my attention. I remember it was called Creepers in the 80s.

[@Hicks-g1m]

Phenomena sounds awesome Ken I'd love to get it 😈😈👍👍🆒🆒 great review

[@dancole6867]

Just watched the 4K. Beautiful. How can this look so good and consistent, but the Rocky movies be all over the place?

[@scaps2200]

The synapse remaster transfer is actually the Arrow remaster transfer. They licensed it from them.

[@UnicornRyder04]

Which is better? Or nothing different. Quality wise?

[@scaps2200]

@@UnicornRyder04 same transfer just extra's and packaging.

[@hectormontalvo5565]

I saw Creepers 5 times in theaters I love the movie. My first Argento movie was Suspiria which I saw with my dad in theaters and has a special place for me.🤔

[@tonyfarinella]

That’s very strange they had two 4K releases within a year of each other. Were they from the same studio? I was also born in 85! Small world. I watched this on Tubi as I didn’t want to do a blind-buy on it (even though I like Bubba Ho Tep). Your video really made me rethink things as I love buying horror flicks, especially on 4K, but I want to get value for my buck. I really enjoy your channel and your kind nature, Ken! We have a lot of mutual friends in the KZbin world!

[@ToniNYY]

I’m so glad you gave this movie another chance! This movie is one hell of a trip 😅 (In a good way) Awesome film.

[@84paratize]

Love this movie! My top Argento

[@respecttheface7152]

TRAUMA is Darios BEST MOVIE 🎥 ever.

[@jasonsantos3037]

Yeah I'm going to add that movie in my collection.

[@turbointerceptor86]

Amazing film

[@johnwhite3195]

argento's dracula is on netflix

[@TheNotoriousNemo]

I love this movie

[@corysmith4293]

This movie had a dope ending, it hit different something you always remember, by the way got the big box set last year

[@marcvalencerina1388]

I thought I was the only one but man I'm glad you feel the same. Phenomena trumps Suspiria story-wise for me as well. I watched both on 4K blu-ray, Suspiria wins on 4K transfer, Phenomena wins on story.

[@TheOriginalFuzz]

Ken I think this review was spot-on and I totally agree with you. Next to Suspiria, Phenomena is probably my favorite Argento 4K release. It really is a stunning representation of the format. I managed to grab the LE box set Synapse released last year for less than $40 (I think it was still fairly new and Amazon had a good deal on it). But Phenomena is also in my Argento Top 3 with Deep Red and Tenebrae, in terms of favorite films overall. Good stuff man.

[@Mediagalore]

I'm hoping this comes to best buy so I can pick it up in stores! Love me some argento!

[@JaketheSnakePlissken]

Haven’t seen this but I preordered it. Arrives Tuesday. Also bitchin Halloween II shirt Ken 🤘

[@David-uc6sg]

Imported the Arrow release to keep the matching style. Still haven't watched it yet.

[@hectormontalvo5565]

I'm glad that you're embracing Italian horror movies. Italians don't make horror movies anymore but you have a whole world of cinema to discover including zombies and primitive cannibals which are the top gun of the genre. Good review and cool video Ken!👉😃👈

[@MegaSargent1]

Thanks for doing this review Kenny I was hoping the new set would come with a Blu-ray besides the 4K like Shout Factory does I have the old Blu-ray that came out in 2016 but I want to see that new documentary so it looks like I can't get this one which sucks I'm a big fan of Dario Argento my favorite movie is Deep Red but Tenebrae and Susperia are great as well I was like you the first time I watched the movie I was a little underwhelmed by it but your right the end is very good it's still a solid movie by Dario Argento

[@tobywesson6424]

I like your show. Is there any word on if there will be a “ Prey” release on physical home media?

[@mrwhateverism]

I love Argento and I really like this movie, but this it is mid level Argento at best. Everyone has their own opinion, but I don't understand how anyone could like this more than Suspiria.

[@1980venom]

Hey Ken, how does it compare to the Arrow version?

[@Nope2022HugeTheWarningFan]

Phenomena has always been my favorite Argento movie. Even when it was just called Creepers. I had to get the Arrow Arte Originale of the UHD here lately, and I had to get it used for about $80.00. I have the Synapse Blu-ray as well. I was just going to wait until this Synapse UHD came out, but I really wanted to Arrow release. But looking at that picture and slipcover? I might actually get this one, too. I believe that Arrow and Synapse used the exact same scan. Can you please tell me if the Synapse menu looks like the Arrow menu?

[@sethbullock2026]

can you tell us if there are french subtitles on it please?
