Seven
\n\"Seven\"<\/p>\n

David Fincher\u2019s serial killer thriller is one of the best of its kind \u2013 tightly plotted, extremely tense, and astonishing to look at in its unsettling evocation of murders themed after the seven deadly sins. Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman are the cops trying to solve the case, which spirals deeper and darker with every victim. Fincher is such a detail-oriented director, and you\u2019ll see all of it better than ever on 4K.<\/p>\n

Constantine
\n\"Constantine\"<\/p>\n

Just celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, the Keanu Reeves-starring adaptation of the DC Comics character has become a true cult favourite. It might not be ultra-faithful to the source material, but it\u2019s a pulpy and imaginative take on the supernatural, with Reeves\u2019 John Constantine able to see the angels, demons and devils existing around us. Hell never looked this good.<\/p>\n

A 4K release gives you perfect sound too \u2013 so let the majesty of Mozart fill your living room. Milo\u0161 Forman\u2019s classic drama unspools a rivalry between Tom Hulce\u2019s Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and F. Murray Abraham\u2019s deeply jealous Antonio Salieri, as the pair vie for renown in 18th Century Vienna. It swept the Oscars, including for Best Sound.<\/p>\n

Dirty Harry
\n\"Dirty<\/p>\n

Sure, you\u2019ve seen Clint Eastwood give grizzled grit. But you\u2019ve never seen that grizzled grit look so sharp. This \u201870s thriller, directed by Don Siegel, casts Eastwood as \u2018Dirty\u2019 Harry Callahan, a San Francisco cop on the trail of the \u2018Scorpio\u2019 killer, willing to bend \u2013 or even break \u2013 the rules to solve the case. A classic that spawned a five-film series of\u00a0Dirty Harry\u00a0movies.<\/p>\n

Pale Rider
\n\"Pale<\/p>\n

Or, if you\u2019re more of a Western fan, try another flavour of Clint Eastwood. Two decades after starring in Sergio Leone\u2019s Dollars trilogy, Eastwood starred in, produced, and directed this 1985 hit. He appears as the mysterious Preacher, who teams up with Michael Moriarty\u2019s Hull Barrett to face down the forces of authority trying to kick independent prospectors out of the town of LaHood, California.<\/p>\n

Lethal Weapon
\n\"Lethal<\/p>\n

Riggs and Murtaugh remain the high-water mark of buddy-cop duos \u2013 bickering and bantering in razor-sharp Shane Black dialogue, as they\u2019re forced to work together on a shady case over Christmas in LA. Richard Donner marshals the action impeccably \u2013 and it all pops better than ever on 4K \u2013 while the emotional undertow of the central duo\u2019s relationship remains perfectly drawn.<\/p>\n

The Conjuring
\n\"The<\/p>\n

Corpse Bride
\n\"Corpse<\/p>\n

Few cinematic disciplines are as painstaking as stop-motion cinema \u2013 where every hand-crafted frame deserves to be celebrated. Tim Burton\u2019s spooky fairy story \u2013 about a man who accidentally marries a corpse when rehearsing his wedding vows \u2013 is frighteningly fun, and full of macabre musical numbers. Pause every second on the 4K release to see the sheer craft on display.<\/p>\n

A Nightmare On Elm Street
\n\"A<\/p>\n

Not for the first or last time in his career, Wes Craven reinvented the horror genre. The original outing of Freddy Krueger is a pure feat of imagination, the knife-handed killer who slashes teens in their dreams \u2013 leaving Heather Langenkamp\u2019s Nancy Thompson to try and figure out a way to stay awake and survive. And over its six sequels the series only got wilder and weirder \u2013 now all available on 4K for the first time.<\/p>\n

Barry Lyndon
\n\"Barry<\/p>\n

Stanley Kubrick\u2019s historical drama \u2013 following Ryan O\u2019Neal\u2019s Redmond Barry as he seeks to rise up the societal ranks in the 18th Century \u2013 is famously one of the most beautiful movies ever made. It is a lavish production, lit often purely by candlelight, visually inspired by the paintings of William Hogarth. 50 years on, that astonishing visual prowess is presented perfectly on 4K.<\/p>\n
