Second Sight Tells Physical Media Fans YOU’RE NEXT This August
These days, Adam Wingard may best known for giving us giant CGI apes and lizards punching each other in the face, but long before Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire hit our big screens, he was dabbling in horror. In 2014 he delivered the excellent horror-thriller, The Guest, and in 2011 he burst onto the slasher scene with the superb YOU’RE NEXT. Well now we can all sit back and enjoy You’re Next in gorgeous 4K (or standard Blu-Ray, if that’s your preference) when UK-based distributor, Second Sight Films, releases the film with all the bells and whistles on August 19th.

For those unfamiliar with You’re Next, it’s well worth picking up if you’re even a slight fan of the horror genre. Far from your standard home invasion film, it feels fresh and new, subverting expectations while giving us the classic tropes we’ve come to expect from a film of this ilk. Second Sight themselves sum it up perfectly:
A family reunion takes an unexpected and gruesome turn when their home is invaded by masked killers. What the cold-blooded intruders don’t count on however is a guest that can turn just as violent they are.
If you are looking to picking up this release, please be aware that the Blu-Ray disc will be Region B locked so US horror fans will need a multi-region Blu Ray player to be able to watch. 4K discs ae naturally region free so UHD investors will be safe!
