The Funhouse - Collector's Edition 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray [4K UHD]

The Funhouse is known for its grit. That's probably what makes it so appealing to horror fans. However, it cleans up nicely for 4K.Though the picture quality is vastly improved, where it really shines is during the funhouse interiors. That's when the surround audio really comes into play. The packaging details the mix as mono. However, there was a 5.1 option on the disc menu, so surround audio elements were coming from my rear channels. Most notably during the scenes that took place inside the funhouse ride.Since the images are sharper than ever, some scenes felt "new" as if I hadn't seen them before. All around, it's a dark movie, but 4K has really brightened it up. The director commentary existed before on another issue of this film. During it, Hooper is just going through the motions with a moderator, so it's a little lacking. Granted this was before his passing, and maybe his memories of the movie were fuzzy at the time.If you are a Tobe Hooper fan, pick this up. You won't be disappointed. Also, get the latest 4K release of Poltergeist, his other directorial effort. It too looks the best in ages!

The plot is very good and the acting in It are great. The picture quality is excellent for a older film. It’s good and the film isn’t grainy like most films can be when they are transferred from the negative.

4K presentation is great. Recommended.

The price was great on sale for $22.99

This movie used to freak me out when I was a kid. It still does, but I figured, why not. Just buy it. And I am glad I did. The picture quality looks great. Way better than the previous Blu ray. The sound is good as well. I would recommend buying this if u are a fan of the movie, or not. Give it a try.

Not the greatest 4k of a classic horror film, but still is really good and an improvement over the scream factory blu ray.

I initially passed on this release because it is one of the first, in a ever growing streak, Shout Factory 4Ks that skimped on upgrading and adding an Atmos track. It dropped below $20 and decided to go ahead a pick it up.The 5.1 gets the job done but when they want to have us pay a premium price to upgrade to UHD there should be more of an upgrade.The video quality isn’t reference quality and I don’t think there is much of a noticeable difference from its previous blu ray. But it’s sharp and is pleasing enough to the eye.The movie itself isn’t great but also isn’t a complete waste of time. They didn’t put a lot of effort into this release and you should definitely wait for it to go on sale before you buy it!

This is a True Tope Hooper Classic!This has Got a Truly Nostalgic Feel.The 4K UHD is Beautiful. For Theater Surround Sound, You need to go into setup and switch Audio to 5.1 Surround, it’s not the Default setting, then turn out the Lights and Crank it!

Como siempre excelente de parte de screamfactory.Pero pesimo servicio el de aduanasO bueno, me imagino que es por ellosYa que el paquete venia abierto y eso es lo de menosLo malo esta en que le dieron un navajazo al empaque que toco el slipcover de la películaY estoy entre si o no debolverloNo estoy seguroDeberían de envolver las películas en cartonAsi como con los vinilosPara evitar cosas como esta

Was very excited for this upgrade, and it did not disappoint!Sound is fantastic, and the picture is great. Highly recommend for fans of '80s horror!

Another amazing 4k release from Scream factory. I wish it had a dolby atmos track but the 5.1 is still good. Forgot how compelling and creepy the movie is... get it if you haven't seen it... or even if you have!

This movie looks amazing on 4K; dark, rich saturated primary colours!

good
