As we eagerly await the release of Ti West's Maxxxine, Turbine takes us back to where it all started with Pearl on 4K UltraHD Blu-ray. With their excellent 4K UHD SteelBook sold out, fans can now snag new deluxe Mediabook editions with four cover options with a new 32-page book.
Who would have expected Ti West and Mia Goth's little horror film X would spawn a franchise? While we wait for what could be the concluding chapter with Maxxxine (there's talk of a fourth film now), Turbine will be reissuing their terrific 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray of Pearl with some beautiful new Mediabook covers to pick from. These discs will offer the same excellent Dolby Vision transfer with the same impressive Atmos audio tracks. The benefit here is you won't have to pay gray-market prices for the SteelBook, pick up a 32-page booklet, and some stylish alternate cover art choices! Read our Pearl 4K UHD Blu-ray SteelBook Review
For the serious collectors - you can order all four alternate covers!
Synopsis:
"Mia Goth delivers her best performance so far." (Slash Film)
Texas, 1918. The Spanish flu has claimed more than 600,000 victims. Pearl lives secluded on a farm, trapped in everyday life with a paralyzed father and an embittered mother, while her husband fights in the First World War. She wants nothing more than a glamorous life like in the movies. But something is wrong with her. Suppressed feelings, unfulfilled urges and psychopathic delusions pave a bloody path...
PEARL is a hypnotically dazzling nightmare that becomes a fascinating horror event in the Hollywood look of the 1950s. Mia Goth, heroine and haunting of X, returns as a young Pearl whose dreams, lusts and murderous fantasies collide and erupt in a glamorous Technicolor bloodlust.
