Project A and Project A Part II make their long overdue debut on Blu-ray in the UK from brand new 2K restorations. Starring three of the greatest martial-arts action stars of all time (Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao), the Project A films blended unparalleled martial artistry, death defying stunts and physical comedy in a way that has yet to be matched. Jackie Chan’s Project A & Project A Part II will be released in a lavish Special Limited Edition 2-disc Hardbound Boxed Set on 22 October 2018.
Monkey Shines, a terrific psychological thriller that delivers a disturbing message about messing with Mother Nature. Starring Jason Beghe and Janine Turner, this riveting tale is a white-knuckle triumph that doesn’t let up! Presented on Blu-ray for the first time in the UK in a Dual Format (Blu-ray & DVD) edition with an array of special features, and a limited edition O-card slipcase.

Night of the Creeps, the simultaneously frightening and hilarious 80s horror classic, will be released in a Dual Format (Blu-ray & DVD) edition as part of the Eureka Classics range from 8 October 2018. Presented with a Limited Edition O-Card slipcase and booklet, this deluxe edition features the original director’s cut and a host of special features.
Embraced by a generation of “bad” movie fans, Troll 2 has become one of the most iconic cult films of its generation, and to this day regularly plays to sold-out theatres of adoring fans. Presented here alongside the first (and entirely unrelated) film, Troll, as well as Best Worst Movie, the definitive documentary on the film’s unexpected resurgence as a cult favourite. Troll: The Complete Collection is a celebration of one of the most unusual success stories in movie history, and is set to be released on Blu-ray as part of the Eureka Classics range from 8 October 2018. Featuring a Limited Edition O-Card Slipcase, with artwork designed by Devon Whitehead, and a collector’s booklet featuring rare content.
