Sorry for the long hiatus from this project. I have an update for you all.
I finally managed to get a copy of the 4K release (which was surprisingly hard as it was out of stock on amazon for a long time), but I’ve decided to dial back the project just a bit. In preliminary tests, I was unable to recreate the theatrical color tinting, so I’ve decided to just release this project as the uncensored version in 4K without any additional color correction, (outside of HDR to SDR as per my own preference). It will also still have the original stereo track from the laserdisc.
The release will be sent out as both a 4K MKV file and a custom 1080p blu-ray ISO with chapters and a restoration of the original trailer. The blu-ray will also feature artwork based on the original poster, and the VHS release, with slight variations.
Hopefully I’ll be able to knock out this project within the next few days, and download links will be sent to everyone who has asked so far. I’m so sorry for the delay. I have a tendency to announce more projects than I can finish due to a constantly changing schedule as well as mental and physical health issues. I wish I could release more of my projects more often. From here on out, I wont be announcing any new projects until I’ve released the ones I’ve promised so far. I owe it to you guys for the support. 😃
