Arrow Video has announced a pair of great releases just in time for Christmas.

One of the most eagerly awaiting titles is finally hitting Blu-ray – Elvira: Mistress of the Dark. Starring Cassandra Peterson’s iconic horror host, it’s an eighties B-movie classic that was a video hit and is loved by everyone who’s seen it. The 1987 film is presented in a newly restored version from a 4K scan of the original interpositive and will come with tons of never before seen extras and archive material.

Also released is the much-maligned Waterworld, starring Kevin Costner and Dennis Hopper. The most expensive film ever made when it was released in 1995 and almost sunk without trace at the box office. It’s the perfect time for a reappraisal, though, with ecological matters now being upfront in today’s society. Another 4K restoration, the Blu-ray release will include three cuts of the film (including – in the limited edition set – the USTV version that runs 40mins longer), collector’s postcards, a poster, and a 60-page book all about the movie.

Elvira: Mistress of the Dark is released on December 3rd, while Waterworld follows on December 10th. The perfect stocking fillers for any film fan!
