Halloween Hits Digital December 28, Blu-ray on January 15

Halloween is coming home sooner than you think.

The smash hit film will hit digital streaming services on December 28, followed by the home media release on January 15. 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD combo packs will all be available. Special features will include five featurettes, and seven deleted/extended scenes. Curiously there is no commentaries listed at all. Wonder if one will be added.

Check out the cover art and details below:

The infamous killer Michael Myers strikes again in Halloween, arriving on Digital and via the digital movie app MOVIES ANYWHERE on December 28, 2018, as well as on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray^TM, DVD and On Demand on January 15, 2019. Hailed by critics as "a near perfect blend of craft, character growth and nostalgia" (Perri Nemiroff, Collider), Halloween takes place four decades after Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis, Halloween Franchise, "Scream Queens") narrowly escaped the masked Michael Myers' brutal killing spree. Packed with bonus features including chilling deleted and extended scenes as well as special featurettes showing behind the scenes looks at creating the film, Halloween delivers spine-chilling, hair-raising intensity and thrills to both new and repeat viewers.

Forty years after the events of 1978's Halloween, Laurie Strode (Curtis) now lives in a heavily guarded home on the edge of Haddonfield, where she's spent decades preparing for Michael's potential return. After being locked up in an institution, Myers manages to escape when a bus transfer goes terribly wrong, leading to chaos in the same town he preyed on decades earlier. Laurie now faces a terrifying showdown when the deranged killer returns for her and her family – but this time, she's ready for him.

Master of horror John Carpenter (Halloween (1978), The Thing) joins forces with director David Gordon Green (Joe, Pineapple Express) and producers Jason Blum (Blumhouse), Malek Akkad (Trancas International Films) and Bill Block (Miramax) for this follow up to Carpenter's 1978 classic horror film. Halloween also includes a stellar cast including Judy Greer (Ant-Man and The Wasp, Jurassic World), Andi Matichak ("Underground"), Will Patton (Armageddon, The Punisher), and Virginia Gardner (Project Almanac, "Runaways").  Proving "classics never die" (Mara Reinstein, US Weekly), Halloween offers a tricky treat for audiences both old and new. Halloween is the perfect slasher film, lauded as "hands down the best Halloween sequel ever" (Katie Walsh, Nerdist) and "immensely entertaining" (Eric Eisenberg, Cinemablend).
