The Frighteners Limited Edition 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray presents Peter Jackson’s 1996 supernatural horror comedy in a 3-disc Arrow Video release. Produced by Robert Zemeckis and starring Michael J. Fox, the film blends ghostly chaos, dark humour, murder mystery and groundbreaking visual effects from the filmmaker who would soon go on to The Lord of the Rings.

Frank Bannister is a small-town psychic who uses his ghostly companions to con locals into paying for his services. But when a string of mysterious deaths points to something far more dangerous, Frank becomes the only person who can uncover the truth and stop a malevolent force from claiming more victims.

Macabre, mischievous and full of offbeat energy, The Frighteners remains one of Peter Jackson’s most beloved cult films. This limited edition 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray set includes both the theatrical and director’s cuts, open matte Blu-ray versions, Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos option, commentary, documentaries, interviews, trailer, image gallery, booklet, reversible sleeve and slipcover.
