Vault Master's Pick of the Week!

I! Live! A-GAIN! Mwahahahaha!

Greetings fellow collectors! I am so sorry I've been away for so long! Between 50+ hours a week at the new(ish) job, Summer vacation, and getting my three-year old monster ready for pre-K, I've been far too busy to do much more than hide in the dark recesses of the web and obsess over the constant stream of new titles pouring forth from Kino Lorber, Arrow Video, Vinegar Syndrome, Scream Factory, and all of the other boutique labels!

There hasn't been a new Stock Your Vault post since Valentine's Day, so I guess it's only appropriate that I attempt to bring back this popular weekly column just in time for Scott Valentine's Day! (Ha!) Here's some of the physical media highlights you can expect on Tuesday, September 5th!

Kino Lorber Studio Classics brings the long sought after Barbarian Brothers comedy DOUBLE TROUBLE to Blu-ray for the first time (now we just need THINK BIG), while Sony Pictures debuts the bizarre family favorite MATILDA on 4K, as well as their fantastic sequel SPIDER-MAN: ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE, which is being released on both formats!

Criterion Collection adds the beloved 80s Fantasy classic THE PRINCESS BRIDE to their 4K catalog, Paramount polishes off their STAR TREK: PICARD series on Blu-ray disc and brings Tim Burton's great SLEEPY HOLLOW to 4K (in both standard and steelbook releases), and Second Sight Films drops a gorgeous limited edition 4K boxed set for David Robert Mitchell's haunting IT FOLLOWS! (Note: The 4K disc is region free - the Blu-ray is Region B locked.)

But this week I'm giving my tip of the hat to Scream Factory, not for their 4K Collector's Edition release of NIGHT OF THE COMET (which contains a new 4K restoration and the original theatrical poster artwork!), but for their new Blu-ray of MY DEMON LOVER! Along with a new 2K restoration plus interviews with the film's composer and editor, the disc also contains a new making-of documentary!

There aren't too many more new releases out this week that are worth mentioning, but if you're curious enough, just scroll down to see this week's full roster of new 4Ks and Blu-rays!
