Michael Jackson's Ghosts [4K AI Upscale] (Available Now Via PM)

I’m working on a 4K AI upscale of Michael Jackson’s Ghosts, a rarely seen short film from the king of pop from 1997. This film has pretty much never had a home video release in the US and just barely had a VHS and Laserdisc in other parts of the world, both of which are pretty rare. There was a VCD release in the US, but that hardly counts in my eyes as VCD is one of the worst formats in history.

2 years ago, the MJ Estate released an HD version on youtube, only to take it down almost immediately after. They put it back up again for the Halloween season, but I bet it’ll just be taken down again. It’s not that good an HD version anyway. It’s sourced from a video master, causing some problems with the black and white segments, its got an atrocious blue tint that is NOT present on a 35MM print that aired on WOWOW TV in Japan, and worst of all, it’s missing the original Kingdom Entertainment logo at the beginning. Still, its the best source currently available, so it is the main source for this upscale. I’m also including HD (not 4K) upscales of the VH1 “Making Of Ghosts” documentary, and the 1993 rough cut (titled “Is It Scary?”) taken from an early version of “The Addams Family Values”. The segment was originally meant to be included in that film, but was scrapped after the 1993 allegations went public. MJ reshot much of the film and completed it in 1997.

The release of my upscale will be October 31st 2023 (of course!) and will be available as both the raw MOV exports and a blu-ray with custom artwork.
