I did a quick census, and can report that Sam Raimi's Army of Darkness, has been released in virtually every home video format, over the past two plus decades, in several hundred variants, most notably (as I recall) quite a few DVDs from Anchor Bay, some in special packaging, limited editions, which sell in the thousands of dollars on eBay and other rare home video fodder auctions.
All of that aside, Scream Factory seems to be offering the consulate, ultimate dream edition for the many lovers of this film, and Bruce Campbell fans.
Three Blu-ray discs:
The Theatrical version at 81 minutes, the Director's Cut, at 96 minutes, as well as the International 88 minute cut, and the 90 minute TV cut (in SD).
While I hate to be the bearer of bad tidings, as I don't see these films coming out in UHD, this is a title that should never have to be touched again.
Scream Factory's new three-disc set leaves nothing that could seemingly be bettered.
Great color, a beautifully resolved image, superb audio.
It's all there, and it isn't even a limited numbered edition.
Army of Darkness fans, Rejoice!
