11/18/25 – Disc Reviews Round-Up

All right, I want to start today by summarizing all of the new disc reviews The Bits review team has shared here in the last week or so, since my last My Two Cents news update…

Tim has shared his thoughts on Luca Guadagnino’s Suspiria (2018) in 4K Ultra HD and also Ho Meng-Hua’s The Lady Hermit (1971) on Blu-ray, both from Imprint & Via Vision, as well as Peter Medak’s Negatives (1968) on Blu-ray from Severin Films, Hanna Barbera’s Touché Turtle and Dum Dum: The Complete Series (1962-63) on Blu-ray from the Warner Archive Collection, and Chor Yuen’s Intimate Confessions of a Chinese Courtesan (1972 ) on Blu-ray from Arrow’s Shawscope: Volume Three box set.

Stuart has taken a look at José Giovanni's Boomerang (1976) and Georges Lautner’s Cop or Hood (1979) on Blu-ray from Kino Lorber Studio Classics.

Dennis has reviewed Howard Hughes and James Whale’s Hell’s Angels (1930) on Blu-ray from the Criterion Collection, Joseph Losey’s King and Country (1964) on Blu-ray from Kino Lorber Studio Classics, and Dick Richards’ Rafferty and the Gold Dust Twins (1975) on Blu-ray from the Warner Archive Collection.

And Stephen have offers his take on Ti West’s X Trilogy (X, Pearl, MaXXXine) in 4K Ultra HD from A24, John Woo’s Hard Boiled (1992) in 4K from Shout! Studios, Walter Hill’s Undisputed (2002) in 4K from Kino Lorber Studio Classics, and Timo Tjahjanto’s Nobody 2 (2005) in 4K from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment.

More reviews are on the way all this week, so be sure to keep checking back for them!

And I’ll be back here again shortly with a new My Two Cents release news update.

Stay tuned…

We’ve got two more new disc reviews for you today here at The Bits...

Stephen has taken a look at The Films of Doris Wishman: The Twilight Years on Blu-ray from AGFA, Something Weird, and Vinegar Syndrome, a three-disc set that includes seven exploitation films that Wishman directed between 1970 and 1977.

And Dennis has turned in his thoughts on Gordon Hessler’s The Oblong Box (1969), an American International Pictures film on Blu-ray from Kino Lorber Studio Classics.

As for today’s release news, let’s start with the big announcement up front: Lionsgate has just officially set Russell Mulcahy’s Highlander: Director’s Cut (1986) for release on 4K Ultra HD on 12/13, just as we expected.

Based on a new restoration done by StudioCanal, the disc will feature Dolby Vision HDR and HDR10 high dynamic range, along with 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio surround sound.

Two versions will be available, a wide release 4K in Amaray packaging and a Best Buy-exclusive Steelbook. Each will include the film on Ultra HD and Blu-ray, along with a selection of four art cards. [Read on here...]
