The 1995 film “The Quick and the Dead” will get a 4K UHD Blu-ray SteelBook release on October 7th via Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. Sam Raimi directed and produced the film. It starred Sharon Stone, Gene Hackman, Russell Crowe, and Leonardo DiCaprio. It co-starred Keith David, Roberts Blossom, Kevin Conway, Lance Henriksen, Pat Hingle, Gary Sinise, and Tobin Bell.

This release will be to celebrate the film’s 30th anniversary. NOTE: This film has been previously released on the 4K UHD Blu-ray format, back in 2018. However, that release only included the HDR10 form of high dynamic range, and this will also include Dolby Vision for the first time on physical media. That being said, tech specs for 4K UHD Blu-ray SteelBook include a 2160p video presentation in a 1.85:1 aspect ratio with Dolby Vision and HDR10, accompanied by Dolby Atmos and lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround sound. The 2-disc release will come as a “combo pack” with its Blu-ray Disc counterpart included, along with a digital copy compatible with Movies Anywhere.

You can find the 4K UHD Blu-ray SteelBook now available for preorder at Amazon and at retailer Walmart. The only bonus material included with this release consists of 7 Deleted Scenes and the Theatrical Trailer. No new extras will be featured.

The films “Saw II“ (2005), “Saw III“ (2006), and “Saw IV“ (2007) are getting 4K UHD Blu-ray SteelBook releases on October 28th via Lionsgate. These will be exclusive to Amazon. Darren Lynn Bousman directed all three of these movies in the “Saw” franchise.

The tech specs for the release include 2160p video presentations in the 1.85:1 aspect ratio, featuring Dolby Vision (or HDR10) high dynamic range and Dolby Atmos sound. NOTE: These are all the theatrical versions of the film, and not the UNRATED cuts or Director’s Cut. This has already upset some fans of the franchise, and I’m unsure what the strategy behind this move was. Each release will come as a “combo pack” with its Blu-ray Disc counterpart and a digital copy of the film included.

UPDATED: You can now find “Saw II“, “Saw III“, and “Saw IV“ 4K UHD Blu-ray SteelBooks, exclusively available for preorder at Amazon. The bonus materials set to be included with these releases are detailed further below, after the break.
