I'm at my folk's place for the time being and they've found a boat load of VHS recorded tapes of broadcast TV and movies.

I'm hoping to dump them all while I'm here, or at least a chunk and have an easy workflow for them to maintain after I leave, and sift through them and see if there's any !lostmedia@lemmy.world

Unfortunately, the equipment on hand I have here is limited and my time is limited so I can't order a whole bunch of crap either, so I likely won't be able to do that fancy RF tap I did some reading on lol

What I do have though, is an old computer with an S-Video capture card and a late model DVD/VCR recorder deck (Panasonic DMR-EZ48V) that has HDMI that I'm almost certain will output VHS over HDMI.

The one thing I could pickup easily is an HDMI capture device.

So which would be best, S-Video or HDMI? HDMI seems like the safe bet, but when it comes to this kind of thing I worry if it's going to do something fucky with the video signal lol

Smith says he’s working closely with a “popular physical media distributor” to get a 4K Steel Book version of Dogma ready for a December release. He says the 4K restoration of the comedy that makes some Catholics cringe looks fantastic, and they didn’t change anything about the original presentation.

Escape From New York VHS

John Carpenter's Escape From New York is getting a deluxe VHS release in the UK, and it's available to order here. It is 2025.


The people at Vice-Press comfortably win this week's they-must-be-mad-but-love-'em award. It's announced a brand new physical media release of John Carpenter's seminal Escape From New York, and by absolutely unpopular demand, it's bringing the film back to VHS.

Two different editions are being offered. There's a limited slipcase edition, where the cover art has been done by Phantom City Creative, and comes with a screenprinted tape design.

Then there's a collector's edition with a double-sided cover, and Matt Ferguson has done the design work there.

As for the film itself, it's presented in the PAL format, and in widescreen. None of this pan and scan nonsense here.      

The release, inevitably, is a limited edition one, priced at £29.99 for each edition. Escape From New York's return to VHS comes on Thursday 15th June, and is shipping from the UK. You can find more details on the releases, and order yourselves copies on Vice Press's website.

We've covered Vice-Press and its VHS releases in our print magazine before, and over at its website, you can find its previous release of They Live, as well as its much in demand collection of posters as well. Note too that it has an open house coming up at its Sheffield premises in October, and you can find more details on the website.

If you're not familiar with the film, what a treat you're in for (there is a planned remake, but it's stalled.) It's absolutely worth the trouble of locating a VHS player, and the finding a modern day television that still accepts a SCART connection. A good double bill with The Purge: Anarchy too, arguably the highlight of that particular franchise.

Here's looking forward to more collectable VHS releases, and hopefully Vice-Press can get around to some HD DVD release soon, so I've got an excuse to get my player out of the garage.It's 2025, and Escape From New York has just got a new VHS release

Hard Boiled | John Woo's Hong Kong classic has been rescued and restored in 4K

by Ryan Lambie | May 16, 2025


Chow Yun-fat in Hard Boiled, directed by John Woo

Share this Article:

Once feared lost, the original negative of John Woo's action classic Hard Boiled has been rescued and restored. The 4K disc is due in June.


There's cool, and then there's 'Chow Yun-fat sliding down a banister, shooting bad guys with a toothpick in his mouth' cool. It's an early, iconic moment in an action thriller stuffed full of them: 1992's Hard Boiled cemented director John Woo's reputation in Hollywood, and remains a high point in Hong Kong cinema.

For years, however, it was thought that Hard Boiled's original print was lost. Although that film -- and other films in Woo's back catalogue -- can be purchased on disc online, some knotty rights issues mean a new 4K release was long thought to be impossible.

In the mid-90s, Golden Princess, the production company that made Hard Boiled and numerous other Hong Kong classics, went bust. The rights to its library of films were then purchased by a firm called Fortune Star, but as part of that acquisition deal, it only had the rights to distribute those movies in Asia.

Those rights eventually ended up in the hands of a massive real estate conglomerate, Kowloon Development Company (KDC), and it was feared that a generation of classic films could be in danger of vanishing into an archive somewhere; KDC refused to sell the rights to individual movies, and so purchasing the entire catalogue would have required a company with deep pockets.

Fortunately, Shout! Studios came to the rescue, and made a deal to buy Golden Princess's entire film archive in January 2025. This means it now owns 156 titles, from Woo's A Better Tomorrow and its two sequels, Ringo Lam's City On Fire, and too many others to list.

If you need a refresher on just how thrilling Hard Boiled is, here's the 4K restoration trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgvK_qhyqgA

In the months since the deal went through, the original print of Hard Boiled has been tracked down in the Hong Kong Film Archive and undergone a painstaking restoration process. In a report by Variety, the 33 year-old print was showing considerable signs of age, from dust and scratches to tears running right across the celluloid.

"Our team encountered a significant tear that had split the image across the frame," a film restoration expert Michael Coronado at a company called Duplitech, told the outlet. "To restore this section, our skilled restoration artists used clone-painting techniques by overlaying adjacent frames to repair the damaged footage."

"Restoring the film was both a challenge and a labour of love," added Henry Weintraub, restoration supervisor at Shout!. "Hard Boiled means a lot to so many people, myself included, and I wanted to be sure we did it justice. It was important to preserve the original look and sound design of the era, while also enhancing both to bring out their full potential."

The restored Hard Boiled is set to premiere at the Cannes Film Festival under its Cannes Classics section today (the 16th May). After that, though, it'll be getting a 4K Blu-ray release, making it the definitive home version of a true landmark in action cinema.

Hard Boiled will be released on disc in the US on the 25th June as part of its Hong Kong Cinema Classics line. You can find the full list of its planned releases on the Shout! website.Hard Boiled | John Woo's Hong Kong classic has been rescued and restored in 4K

Despite losing money in cinemas on Megalopolis, Francis Ford Coppola is said to be insistent that his oddball epic be seen on the big screen rather than streaming or disc.


Veteran filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola famously gambled a considerable amount of his personal fortune on his 2024 epic, Megalopolis. But given that his sprawling, $120m saga is said to have lost tens of millions for the director -- it's said to have made just $14m in cinemas -- you might be forgiven for thinking he'd be keen to recoup his cost through other means.

Quite the opposite.

According to a piece on The Hollywood Reporter, there's a good reason as to why you can't purchase Megalopolis on DVD and Blu-ray, at least in the US: Coppola wants it to remain a big-screen experience.

Megalopolis was available to stream not long after its cinema release in September 2024. By that November, the movie was available to rent on such platforms as Prime Video, Apple TV+ and Google Play; by early 2025, however, Megalopolis had been pulled from all those services, at least in the US. In the UK, Coppola's fable is available to purchase in UHD for £13.99 from Prime Video.

It's a similar story on disc. In the UK, such outlets as HMV and Amazon are happily selling Megalopolis on DVD, Blu-ray and its fancy 4K Ultra HD younger relative. In the US, the disc release still hasn't emerged; there have been reports from customers that it was available to pre-purchase at one stage, but they later had those orders cancelled.

Again, the reason for its obscurity in the US is because Coppola "wants it to play in theatres, the way it was intended," according to a THR source. Instead, the director appears to be personally taking his film around for special screenings; one such event in Boston was said to be sold out, while another is set to happen in Detroit later in May.

Adam Driver leads an all-star cast in Megalopolis, the actor playing Cesar Catalina -- a brooding architect determined to rebuild a shattered city after his own design. Coppola's piece is all retro-futuristic decadence and homebrew special effects, with similarly outlandish performances from such big names as Aubrey Plaza (here playing a TV reporter named Wow Platinum) and Jon Voight as a wealthy banker who likes to boast about his priapism.

Curiously, Voight himself seems to be on his own Cesar-esque quest to rebuild Hollywood after his own image, albeit with the aid of one Donald Trump. We'll have to wait and see how that works out for them.

Depending on who you talk to or read, Megalopolis is either a fascinating oddity or simply an outright disaster. Whatever your opinion, it seems that Coppola's intent on keeping his film shrouded in its own kind of mystique.

From Blumhouse, producers of M3GAN, and Platinum Dunes, producers of A Quiet Place, comes DROP, the action-packed thriller that proves dating can be deadly.

First dates can be rough. In this mind-bending action thriller from the director of Happy Death Day, they can also be deadly. Violet (Meghann Fahy, The White Lotus) is a widowed mother who has worked up the courage to go on her first date in years with a charming photographer named Henry. The cute couple's killer chemistry is rudely interrupted by a series of anonymous drops to Violet's phone showing a masked intruder entering her home and ordering her to follow a series of instructions. Violet must do exactly as she's told or her loved ones will die. Her unseen tormentor's final directive? Kill Henry. From acclaimed director Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day franchise, Heart Eyes), DROP stars Meghann Fahy ("The White Lotus," Your Monster), Brandon Sklenar ("1923," It Ends With Us), Violett Beane ("The Flash," Truth or Dare), and Jeffery Self ("Search Party," Spoiler Alert). Special Features and Technical Specs:

  • HDR PRESENTATION OF THE FILM
  • DOLBY ATMOS AUDIO TRACK
  • FEATURE COMMENTARY WITH DIRECTOR CHRISTOPHER LANDON
