The disc is a beaut. Stunning restoration for a movie whose visuals are a primary point of interest -- and a unique, artistically-driven piece compared to most other '50s sci-fi pictures. If you're interested in the film or the genre I definitely recommend it, the higher price was used for the extensive restoration that had to be undertaken for this particular movie (which if you know anything about it, took quite an effort -- the booklet of which explains it all).

[The] pre-order is limited to US customers only. For everyone else, you’ll be able to place your (pre-)orders in the summer, ahead of the official worldwide release this fall. For our friends in the UK -- you can order your copy from our partner Arrow Video, who will be releasing the same edition.
I think I can wait for the standard release.

This is it, it's the "standard" release. It's not going to be cheaper later. When it said Fall they meant Fall 2022! :mrgreen:

Isn't Arrow attached to this as well?

They're "attached" in that they authored the disc for Ignite Films and apparently offered technical support plus distribution overseas. It looks like an Arrow disc when you load it up it has Arrow's menus and such. But it's not an Arrow release per se -- in the UK they will be distributing it, not pushing it as one of their releases (AFAIK).

Thanks for the clarification Andy.

Looks like I'll be getting this one.

Might as well grab it for $19.99 (or $24.95 for the uhd)! Money well spent John. 8)

There might be additional coupons/cashback for that site also bringing it down a bit.
