ARROW VIDEO JUNE 2025 NEW RELEASES. A FUTURISTIC MIND-BENDER FINALLY IN 4K, SWAYZE AND TRAVOLTA IN ACTION, AN EPIC CLINT WESTERN, HARRISON FORD’S OSCAR-WINNING NEO-NOIR, A GRITTY 70s HEIST CLASSIC AND A MYSTICAL JAPANESE GEM
First in June from Arrow Video comes one of the defining films of the 1980s: Road House, a neon-lit action extravaganza with riveting fight scenes and possibly the coolest protagonist in American cinema, played by the late great Patrick Swayze. Featuring a star-studded supporting cast including Sam Elliott, Kelly Lynch and Ben Gazzara as the nefarious Wesley, Road House remains the undisputed champion of 80s ass-kicking action! Released on Limited Edition 4K UHD and Limited Edition Blu-ray, the 2-disc set includes two commentaries, featurettes and a whole load of interviews, as well as a reversible sleeve, a double-sided foldout poster, a Double Deuce drinks coaster, and a collector’s booklet featuring original production notes. Talk about bang for your buck!
There’s more slick blockbusting action in Swordfish, on Limited Edition 4K UHD, from legendary producer Joel Silver (The Matrix) starring John Travolta (Face/Off) and Hugh Jackman (Logan). A nail-biting high-tech thriller from its explosive opening to its thrilling climax, Swordfish features a great supporting cast including Halle Berry, Don Cheadle and Vinnie Jones. With an audio commentary by director Dominic Sena, alternate endings, and revealing behind the scenes featurettes, the release includes a reversible sleeve, a double-sided fold-out poster, and an illustrated collector’s booklet.
Next in June, from Alex Proyas, visionary director of The Crow, comes Dark City on Limited Edition 4K UHD and Limited Edition Blu-ray – a mind-bending science fiction thriller set in a shadowy world where the sun never rises and nothing is quite what it seems. With a cast that includes Rufus Sewell (The Diplomat), Kiefer Sutherland (The Lost Boys), William Hurt (A History of Violence), Jennifer Connelly (Phenomena) and Richard O’Brien (The Rocky Horror Picture Show), and a script by Proyas, Lem Dobbs (Kafka) and David S. Goyer (Batman Begins), Dark City is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma, filmed through a lens of film noir and German expressionism. An extraordinary feast for the cinematic senses, this Limited Edition 2-disc release includes brand new extras, a 60-page perfect bound collectors book, limited edition packaging, a double-sided fold-out poster, three postcard-sized reproduction art cards, a postcard from Shell Beach, and a Dr Schreber business card.
Also in June, The Good, The Bad and The Ugly on Limited Edition 4K UHD and Limited Edition Blu-ray. With the two preceding films in his “Dollars” trilogy having unleashed a boom in Euro Western productions, Sergio Leone knew that his concluding chapter would have to top them all. Armed with his largest budget yet, Leone created what is, for many, the final word on the subject – a violent, picaresque epic presented with operatic scope and intensity, with Clint Eastwood donning the iconic hat and poncho one last time. Mythic, cynical and endlessly entertaining, The Good, The Bad and The Ugly brings Leone’s grand sense of dramatic scale to its apotheosis. Arrow Films is proud to present this landmark Western in the most comprehensive edition ever assembled, featuring both cuts of the film meticulously restored in glorious 4K, and a wealth of new and archival bonus materials. The 4-disc set comes with a reversible sleeve, a perfect bound collector’s booklet, and a double-sided fold-out poster.
Next in June, Harrison Ford (The Fugitive) and Kelly McGillis (Top Gun) star as would-be lovers from two different worlds in Witness, director Peter Weir’s (Picnic at Hanging Rock) Academy Award®-winning neo-noir thriller which pits modernity against tradition. Noted for its sensitive portrayal of the Amish community, Witness features a career-best performance from Ford – earning him an Academy Award® nomination for Best Actor – a beautiful, memorable score by Maurice Jarre, and some stunning sequences, not least the building of the barn, and the High Noon-ish finale. Now fully restored in 4K, Witness proves as timeless as it is masterful. This fabulous release – available on Limited Edition 4K UHD and Limited Edition Blu-ray – comes packed with extras and with limited edition packaging with a reversible sleeve, a limited edition 60-page perfect bound booklet, a double-sided fold-out poster, and six double-sided collector’s postcards.
Also in June, The Invisible Swordsman on Limited Edition Blu-ray. Mysterious sprites, eerie supernatural goings on and heroic sword-fighting action abound in this mystical tale of vengeance and adventure from the makers of the Zatoichi, Daimajin and Yokai Monsters films. Directed by Yoshiyuki Kuroda (Yokai Monsters: Spook Warfare, Lone Wolf and Cub: White Heaven in Hell) and beautifully shot by Hiroshi Imai (Zatoichi and the Doomed Man, The Haunted Palace). Boasting sumptuous attention to its historical setting, costume design, fight choreography and period details that Daiei Kyoto were renowned for, all with an added dose of rip-roaring fantasy and adventure, Arrow Films is proud to release this unseen gem in a brand new high-definition transfer for the very first time for the home video market outside of Japan. The release includes a reversible sleeve and an illustrated collector’s booklet.
Finally in June, strap yourself in for the edge-of-your-seat thrill ride that wrote the rulebook on high-stakes heist movies – Joseph Sargent’s 1974 masterclass in relentless suspense, The Taking of Pelham One Two Three, on Limited Edition 4K UHD and Limited Edition Blu-ray. One of the seminal New York crime films of the seventies, shot on location and oozing period detail and authenticity, The Taking of Pelham One Two Three boasts pitch-perfect performances from the likes of Walter Matthau and Robert Shaw, pitch-black humour, an unrelenting pace and an unforgettable score by David Shire. Oft-imitated, never bettered, this rugged gem of Hollywood heist cinema remains a perennial classic of the genre – and one hell of a ride. Gesundheit!
