The 'Burbs - full specs announced


It's time to catch up with the Klopeks! We're thrilled to finally unveil the full specs for our upcoming release of Joe Dante's tongue-in-cheek horror classic The 'Burbs. So excited were we, in fact, that we decided to film a special report direct from the suburbs to mark the occasion, and here it is!

Meet the Team - Ewan Cant


WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT IS YOUR JOB AT ARROW?

I joined as a Marketing and Operations Executive for Arrow Video a little over a year ago. That title covers a whole range of things, but the ‘bread and butter’ of my role, if you like, is being a full-time disc producer – as a huge horror fan, basically anything in that general area comes my way, which I’m more than happy with! At the end of last year I started getting more involved in the events side of things, bringing Arrow Video to various conventions around the UK and hosting some of our very own theme screenings (mulled wine and Silent Night, Deadly Night, anyone?). I’m also currently engaged in getting a whole new range of Arrow Video merchandise off the ground, so keep your eyes peeled for that!

Meet the Team - Michael Brooke


WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT IS YOUR JOB AT ARROW?

I’m a freelance writer/editor/producer who has worked for several Blu-ray/DVD labels (BFI, Eureka, Second Run) over the years in various capacities, but Arrow in general and Arrow Academy in particular take up most current waking hours.  Since 2011, I’ve contributed to numerous Arrow releases as producer, co-producer, extra creator, booklet essayist/editor, QC inspector, blurb writer, trailer cutter, you name it.

Meet the Team - Anthony Nield



WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT IS YOUR JOB AT ARROW?

I work as a producer on a freelance basis for Arrow which means I’m allocated a freshly-licenced title for either the Arrow Video or Arrow Academy range, given a budget and told to create as definitive an edition as is possible. I then go away, research the film (or films) in plenty of depth and set about commissioning the new artwork, the booklet and the extras. I’ll also look into what’s already out there and consider the possibilities of licencing pre-existing video and print materials – whether it be an interview, a commentary, a short film, a documentary or what-have-you.

The movie will make its uncut UK Blu-ray debut on 28th July 2014 in a newly restored transfer with a host of brand-new extra features.
