Amazon has the 4k/bluray combo set for 24.99. Hilariously, they're claiming it's on sale, half off from 50 dollars. It has never been that price ever. Lol.
Heh. That's the version I just purchased.

Jason wrote: Sat Oct 19, 2024 12:27 pm Is it better than Monster Squad? Cause that's what it'll have to beat for my favorite new viewing. :P
ready or not doesn't have to be a favorite new viewing to be worth a new viewing! :P
I'm just extremely picky with the word great. When I hear great I think The Evil Dead or Black Christmas level. Lol
as far as more current horror goes, ready or not is a great.
When Evil Lurks is definitely great. 8-)
if you wanna compare the two, when evil lurks is not as great.
Hey now. That is some dangerously serious praise you got going.
you don't have to agree, but you'll never know until you're ready. :P

I have it. And I hate when Rotten Tomatoes puts their stupid certified fresh logo printed on the cover art. I don't care what they think. Lol

Time for Zombie Lake, a movie I've only seen once in my life (probably 15 years ago) after blind-buying it on DVD. First time I've put this DVD in a DVD player in a long-ass time, so looking forward to revisiting this classic.

Ready or Not seems to have character. Good humor. And Andie McDowell is in it. Cool. Off to a nice start.
