Some exciting news for home video worshippers in that Quentin Tarantino’s glorious 1992 debut, Reservoir Dogs, is getting the full flown 4K Ultra HD release this coming November.
Michael Madsen, Tim Roth, Harvey Keitel, Steve Buscemi, and Quentin Tarantino himself star in the cult classic, which hits on 24th November with the Steelbook already available to pre-order on Amazon for £35. It also has some lovely box-art. See above.
The synopsis, if you need a reminder, is as follows.
Quentin Tarantino came out of nowhere (i.e., a video store in Manhattan Beach, California) and turned Hollywood on its ear in 1992 with his explosive first feature, Reservoir Dogs. Like Tarantino’s mainstream breakthrough Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs has an unconventional structure, cleverly shuffling back and forth in time to reveal details about the characters, experienced criminals who know next to nothing about each other. Joe (Lawrence Tierney) has assembled them to pull off a simple heist, and has gruffly assigned them color-coded aliases (Mr. Orange, Mr. Pink, Mr. White) to conceal their identities from being known even to each other. But something has gone wrong, and the plan has blown up in their faces. One by one, the surviving robbers find their way back to their prearranged warehouse hideout. There, they try to piece together the chronology of this bloody fiasco–and to identify the traitor among them who tipped off the police. Pressure mounts, blood flows, accusations and bullets fly. In the combustible atmosphere these men are forced to confront life-and-death questions of trust, loyalty, professionalism, deception, and betrayal.
No visibility on bonus features at the moment, but we’ll keep you posted.
