So glad that this set lived up to your expectations. My box set arrived yesterday and I am really looking to watching it. It has been a long wait. Another brilliant video, thank you. 🙏
It certainly did Gothic (and more) can't wait to watch it again and also check out the extras 🤔🤩👍 yeah it's been a loooooong wait hasn't it 🤯🤯 but we'll worth it mate! Cheers bud appreciate that 🤩🤩👍👍
Great reviewer! He takes his time showing us the packaging, and then moves on to the tech info in a laid back, digestible manner. My copy should be here soon.
Great video John. Recieved my standard copy the other day. It's a beautiful transfer and restoration. Still can't believe we finally have this on 4k. Could tbe the release of the year
Thanks David 🤩🤩👍👍 yeah considering that the elements were meant to be garbage at the start of this to find some as good as they are is amazing!!! Yeah it's certainly a contender for the top spot David 🤔🤩🤩👏👏
I'm the same first time watch since the 80s and it certainly surpassed my original thoughts on this movie, the wide-screen presentation really adds to the feel of it Mike 😊😊👏👏
Hi John I hope your well Sir, had to do my own unboxing first & see it in my own hands before watching anybody else’s review,I’ve seen Nigel’s & now your video. I applaud Second Sight for sending our copies out with protective packaging 👍, it’s worth the wait 😎. I gotta admit when announced & artwork revealed I wasn’t blown away but now I’ve come to really liking it. Glad Second Sight took their time in putting the special treatment for “The Hitcher” And stacked with new extras & the efforts look spectacular, a underrated cult classic. Violent, tense, beautifully shot in the desert & Hauer, Howell & Leigh are outstanding. Was a pre order for me, & so glad Second Sight released it & hopefully the movie will gain a new modern day following. Great work & review from The Voice John Mondo Chelloveck 😎
Doing great Carlos, hope your good too 🤩🤩👌👌 yeah I'm the same with unboxings of films I'm getting, I get mine then look at the unboxings after I've digested my own copy 🤔🤩🤩👍👍 i think the colours are amazing in the flesh your right!! 👏👏 the packaging was brilliant as well which is more than welcome 😁😁👌👌 I do think that this film will get a brand new audience and it will get the recognition it truly deserves bud!!! Thanks again Carlos and "The Voice" is a name I could definitely go by 🤩🤩😊😊 don't know if The Debs will agree as she is always telling me to be quiet 😉🤣🤣👍👍
Got mine today it's beautiful. Gotta say Second Sight don't mess about when it comes to postage packaging, it came in a big box packed with those big air bag things and wrapped in bubble wrap too. Very impressive.
Can't fault Second Sight for their packaging Gary 😁😁👌👌 I'm glad they do that as it's so important that we get these in perfect condition 🤞🤞🤩🤩 top marks for them 😁😁👍👍
Something special there. This is such an amazing film. Both in cinematography, feeling, characters and story. You could you use outside packaging to display the art cards and rotate them occasionally. Just ordered the blue ray should be here tomorrow actually - can't wait!! But this looks fantastic. Interesting how it's now rated 15, rather the original 18 (if I remember rightly)
The cinematography really surprised me on this watch, I've seen it numerous times back in the day but never took any notice of that aspect 🤯😁 yeah you could mate 🤩🤩👍👍 the blu ray looks equally impressive 😁😁👏👏 you know what I thought it was an 18 as well 🤔🤔🤔 saying that I'm amazed at what you see in 15 rated films these days 😱😱 cheers for watching mate 🤩🤩👍👍
@@MondoChelloveckMovies That's a very good point. The rating seems to allow 'more' so a PG (to me) has like wooah stuff in it, and 15 the same. I think we're just gradually getting used to more extreme stuff. Also taboos change.
@TheRetroEngine some of the things allowed in 15 rated films these days are nuts, the BIG swear words gave you an 18 automatically, these days you can get f bombs in 12 rating 🤯🤣 obviously every 12 year old has heard it all in the playground though 😁 the funny thing is as the world seems to be getting "woke" at the moment it doesn't reflect in the ratings (thankfully) but yeah the times they are a changing 🤔😁😁👍👍
A fantastic boxset of the great The Hitcher film with great extras too. I ordered the standard 4k version that will be amazing I'm sure. It's arriving today can't wait to see it now you said how good it is.
I bet that was a great experience David 😁😁👏👏 it's a lot more cinematic than I thought David 🤔🤔 so if I ever hear about a Cinema screening of it in the future I'd be well up for that 😁😁👍👍
Great unboxing and review of the 4k of The Hitcher. I think this film was made for the 4k with its panoramic settings outside. The hitcher is a all time cult classic. The hitcher 2 is not bad either, obviously not as good as the original but still worth seeing. Great review John.
Thanks Paul 🤩🤩👍👍 I agree mate, until I saw this wide-screen version I wouldn't have thought that but WOW the panoramic view of this film is amazing 😱😁👌 never seen The Hitcher 2, might give it a whirl Paul 🤩🤩👍👍 thanks again bud 😁😁👌👌
I am definitely going to buy this, I am not interested in boxes or booklets so I will buy the standard edition for sure. Great film and a great 4k as far as I have heard.
Great video John 😊 Cheers for the spoiler free review. My copy of the hitcher arrived today as well. I've unboxed it and tested the disc to make sure everything works as it should. I've not watched the movie yet. In fact. I have never seen the movie before. But I knew I wanted it for my collection 😊
Thanks Kevin 🤩🤩👍👍 I don't try to give out spoilers and if I said the thing I nearly did it wouldn't ruin it but would have given you a character trope you need to find out for yourself 🤔🤩👍 I think you will have a great time with it and it's a great 80s... Im going to say "Horror" film 😁😁 hope you enjoy it Kevin... I think you will buddy 🤩🤩👌👌
Very nice edition ! Love all the artwork, it looks like Second Sight have done a really good job ! I don't think I've seen this one since the VHS rental days but I remember it being really good and one of those movies that really stood out amongst the competition. Revisiting great movies that have been given "the treatment" on modern equipment after you only ever saw them in 4:3 pan&scan on a (relatively speaking) tiny TV with poor sound quality is such a treat ! Looking forward to seeing this one ! 🙂Thanks for the video m8 👍
Cheers TigerBlue 🤩🤩👍👍 that's it exactly mate 😁😁 I've only got the VHS to compare it mate so it's like a COMPLETELY new experience for me!!!! Loved the whole experience, the film was always good...now it's next level good mate 🤔🤔🤩🤩👌👌cheers for watching TB 😊😊👍👍
Great video John, I've just had mine delivered today as well. £53 well spent. It's taken them 3 years to do this but worth the wait. A really nice box set. I can remember when I showed this in the cinema on release, and watching a certain scene in the cinema, and being totally gripped by it. (I'm sure you know what scene I'm talking about, but for those who haven't seen it). Enjoy it.
Cheers mate, yeah long process but WELL worth it in the end 😁😁👏👏 was that in 1986 or was there a recent rerelease? There are great set pieces in this film, was it chips or the scene with Jennifer Jason Leigh at the end? Either way classic 🤩👌🤩👌 enjoyed it a lot this time around 😁😁👍👍
Nice The Hitcher set John. The film is a classic. I ordered the regular 4k edition as I don't have space for the box set. I'm hearing good things about the transfer & you're screen shots are looking great John.
Great Review of one of my Best films, in my top 10 mate, Rutgar Hauer, smashed it has John Smith. The Whole CAST, couldn't have been any better, really am gonna hint to are lass for chrimbo, CHEERS John Hope you are Doing Good, 10/10 JOHN. CHEERS MATE.
Cheers William 🤩🤩👍👍 it's an absolute classic isn't it 😁😁👏👏 Rutger Hauer is so menacing 😱 yeah get your hints in for Christmas William 🎄🎅 thanks for watching bud and yeah I'm doing well and thanks for your kind words William 😁😁👍👍
Daaam... I missed a 4k screening of 'The Hitcher' at fright fest London in august😢. I hope the noise reduction isn't too heavy🤔 I did watch this film multiple times on vhs 4x3😂 for years I couldn't understand why certain films look similar, in 2012 i discovered I can mount vintage Anamorphic/Cinemascope projector lenses to a digital camera🎉 so then I realised all these classic films are shot with Anamorphic lenses😎.... Now I've collected 4 vintage Anamorphic lenses that do work with my 4k camera😎. The cinematography in 'The Hitcher' is amazing and gritty... It's just all boxes were ticked when making this film... And it all works. 😎
I bet it would look amazing on the big screen Stu 🤔😁👍 I'm sure it'll play again some time 😁😁🤞🤞 I personally didn't see any noise reduction, a nice honest transfer for me Stu 🤩🤩👍👍 interesting about the anamorphic lense 🤔 there's so much to factor into how a film is shot and how everything affects the outcome 🤩🤔👍 yeah I enjoyed it a lot more this time around and let me know what you make of the transfer Stu 😁😁👍👍
@@MondoChelloveckMovies hey... I need to get a 4k player first.... I think its time👍🏼. Nice to hear theres no noise reduction muddy look, and a very nice review. Keep an eye out for my up coming Anamorphic lens test😋
I like to keep some sealed 4k horror blu ray. They go up in price on ebay eventually. That movie is awesome. Those second sight releases are expensive.
Hey John. Cracking video there, pal. Was there ever any doubt that this wouldn't be anything other than 10/10 from Second Sight? They take so much care in every aspect of their releases, right down to the postal packaging. Mine is due to be delivered in the morning and I can't flipping wait 😂 Take care, man
Thanks Steve 🤩🤩👍👍 You're right mate, I would have put money on them doing the business on it... I did think...it can't be THAT good 🥴 but it was!! 😁😁 The packaging was amazing 👏👏 thanks Steve and enjoy The Hitcher tomorrow 🤩🤩👌👌
@GodWeenSatan yeah totally, been wanting to see this for so long but had to put it off till Second Sight did this extraordinary restoration 😁😁 cheers for watching mate 😊😊👍👍
You come to expect quality packaging when it comes from Lime Wood Media. If only the dipsticks at Zavvi and Amazon could take note. But I doubt they ever will.
You're right about that Dr 😁😁👌👌 always had a good time ordering from Second Sight mate 👏👏 yeah sadly Lavvi and Spamazon just chuck anything together and that's that 🤬🤬🤬 cheers for watching bud 😁😁👍👍
Excellent unboxing and review John, mine was supposed to be delivered today but Royal Mail decided not to bother their arse,it took them 48 hours to get it from London to Belfast, should get it tomorrow fingers crossed...really looking forward to it 😊
Cheers Marty 🤩🤩👍👍 have you got it yet mate? Yeah annoying when you are given a day and it doesn't drop then!! 🤬🤬🤬 I'm sure you will be blown away by it Marty 😊😊👍👍
@MondoChelloveckMovies Yeah it arrived yesterday, stunning edition, Second Sight can do no wrong...will be watching it tonight, hopefully will have a review up then 😀
@MondoChelloveckMovies thanks for your understanding 😁 mine arrived today. I've already watched it, and as you say the picture quality is excellent 👌 👍
Grain is good. GRAIN IS DETAIL!!!! Erase the grain and you erase the detail. This release sounds promising so I am actually excited. No AI cringe destruction masquerading as a restoration.
Another great review John. But you really didnt need to try and show the quality of this with your screenshots. They look awful and really dont look like that when watching. I saw your photos before i watched my disc and was a bit worried so I think your photos are misleading.
The problem with taking the screenshots is that you can only really see what they look like when you play them back on a device (TV for me) I agree that the actually picture quality is much better in real life, sometimes they look close to what Im seeing and sometimes they look different, so until I put them up I'm not sure how they will turn out unfortunately, my videos are set to upload to HD but sometimes don't, if the picture was off I would definitely say on my review mate, but appreciate that input bud 🤩🤩👍👍
It's a very nice set John and great value for what you get. It's a bit pricey for me though. My only criticism of the set.... WAY too much ORANGE. I'm hoping Arrow might release this in the US (tomorrow maybe) and I have a $10 voucher still to use, also shipping to the UK is really cheap. Take care both of you. Gaz.
Excellent value bud I think 😁😁👍👍 not sure Arrow will get it for a while as Second Sight might have it for a bit now 🤔 but you never know bud 🤩🤩 Cheers Gaz all the best mate 😁😁👍👍
@halcyondaystunes thanks mate, the extras on here look mainly new ones commissioned by Second Sight there are a few vintage extras, maybe that's the ones on there mate? 🤔🤩👍
@pieeater4877 didn't find the grain bad for me, the dusty scenes looked grainy but I think that's down to film not "understanding" dusty atmospheres but otherwise I thought it looked amazing personally 👍👍
Great video john as always . ive been waiting for a copy of the film i helped on to send you so i had a word with the director and i told him i wanted you to review it so he gave me a link to a 4k version of it. Are you on whatsapp? If so could you send me a link and ill send you the link for the filum cheers Brad
Mine just arrived the other day. Absolutely amazing set. I can't wait to dive into it and soak it all up. We need more Rutger Hauer on 4K!
Excellent Darren 😁😁👍👍 yeah cracking set, and Rutger has put out some great films that need the 4k touch 😁😁👏👏
Great film there John. Rutger Hauer was so underrated. so sad when he died. 😢
It's a real 80s classic Steven 😁😁👍👍 yeah I agree he never quite got the recognition he deserved and very sad to hear he has passed on recently 😞😞
So glad that this set lived up to your expectations. My box set arrived yesterday and I am really looking to watching it. It has been a long wait.
Another brilliant video, thank you. 🙏
It certainly did Gothic (and more) can't wait to watch it again and also check out the extras 🤔🤩👍 yeah it's been a loooooong wait hasn't it 🤯🤯 but we'll worth it mate! Cheers bud appreciate that 🤩🤩👍👍
One of the most anticipated physical media releases of the year!
You can say that again Cheekster 🤩🤩👍👍
Great reviewer! He takes his time showing us the packaging, and then moves on to the tech info in a laid back, digestible manner. My copy should be here soon.
Thanks Jason 🤩👍 I think I show them the way I would like to watch a video myself mate, I'm sure you will enjoy your copy Jason 🤩🤩👍👍
Superb film!! I love the soundtrack too! Can't wait to recieve mine. This special edition really does the film justice 😊
The soundtrack is absolutely amazing you're right Barry 🤩🤩👏👏 you will love it mate it really ticks all the boxes 🙂🙂👌👌
Great video John. Recieved my standard copy the other day. It's a beautiful transfer and restoration. Still can't believe we finally have this on 4k. Could tbe the release of the year

@pieeater4877 didn't find the grain bad for me, the dusty scenes looked grainy but I think that's down to film not "understanding" dusty atmospheres but otherwise I thought it looked amazing personally 👍👍
Great video john as always . ive been waiting for a copy of the film i helped on to send you so i had a word with the director and i told him i wanted you to review it so he gave me a link to a 4k version of it.
