Back in 2014, Scream Factory released a massive Halloween boxed set, which consisted not only of the first 10 entries into the Halloween franchise, but also comprehensive special features and an alternate cut of Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers. With physical media enthusiasts now embracing 4K UltraHD Blu-rays, the home video producer is giving the first five entries into the series all-new transfers, with upcoming releases featuring upgraded resolution of those films, but also delivering new cover art as well as limited edition vinyl releases featuring new music from John Carpenter, in addition to limited-edition posters and enamel pins. The sets and individual films are available for pre-order now on Amazon and are expected to hit shelves in late September.

Scream Factory describes the new releases, “It’s been 43 years since the John Carpenter’s 1978 classic Halloween hit theaters and changed the horror genre forever. Now it — and its immediate sequels — can be experienced like never before in the best video and audio quality ever. This Scream Factory release of the first 5 Halloween films marks the North American 4K UHD debut for Halloween II, III, 4, and 5. In an exciting nod to fans, Halloween (1978) (Collector’s Edition) (4K UHD) features a return to the original camera negative for the first time! Each of these beloved, iconic films will be released in a limited-edition rigid slipcase, and will include a Blu-ray of the film as well as previously existing bonus features.”
