Prepare for blastoff — Dark Star arrives in a brand new 4K Ultra HD Limited Edition from Fabulous Films.

This release with Crew Patch is Ltd to 500 Units and is available exclusively via the Fabulous Films website.

This premium collector’s set includes a full-slip outer, a rigid box, a replica crew patch, the film on 4K UHD + Blu-ray, two collector’s booklets (including a new essay by Michael Doyle), plus an envelope of extras containing art cards, a reproduction of the original UK quad poster, and a replica pressbook.
The transfer is sourced from a 35mm print, preserving the film’s natural 16mm grain structure and original texture. No heavy digital processing, no waxy filters — just a faithful, organic presentation of John Carpenter’s debut feature.

Extras include the bulk of the archival DVD materials, including the essential documentary “Let There Be Light”.

For cult sci-fi fans, physical media collectors, and Carpenter completists, this is an outstanding upgrade and one of the most comprehensive packages the film has ever received.
