Arrow Video
January Releases
The cult cinema experts at Arrow Video are set to guarantee film fans a happy new year come January with some spectacular DVD, Blu-ray and Dual Format releases lined up.
Following on from December’s Limited Edition release of Donnie Darko comes standard edition releases on both DVD and Blu-ray. The DVD release offers the theatrical cut of the mind-bending classic, while the Blu-ray release has both the theatrical and director’s cuts on board!
January’s a great month for fans of Japanese crime cinema too as Takashi Miike’s Black Society Trilogy arrives on both Blu-ray and DVD. These stylish and gripping crime films put Miike on the cinematic map and proved he was more than just a specialist in blood and guts.
But if it’s blood and guts you want, you’re also in for a treat with Blood Rage! This classic 80s horror is a Thanksgiving-set masterpiece of schlock with amazing effects by Terminator 2: Judgement Day’s Ed French. Out the same week is Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia, the film that director Sam Peckinpah stated as the only film that ended up exactly how he wanted. Arrow Video bring it to Limited Edition Blu-ray.
Last but by no means least in January is the Limited Edition Dual Format release of Brian De Palma’s Raising Cain. The thriller stars John Lithgow in no less than three roles - a pair of twins and their father - and he delivers a startling performance as one of them descends into a psychotic rage.
