The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Trilogy in 4K, 13 Slays Till Christmas, and the Shaw Brothers will make your Christmas on Arrow!
Cowabunga! Get ready for a totally radical holiday line-up to unwrap on ARROW this December. It’s headlined by the ‘90s pop culture icons, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The complete original film trilogy is newly restored in glorious 4K.
A shell-shocking saga of mutants, martial arts, and New York mayhem, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles trilogy brought comic book grit and practical effects wizardry to a generation. Additionally, it featured pizza-fuelled fun. This helped turn four sewer-dwelling brothers into global pop culture icons. Featuring 1990s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and the 1991 sequel The Secret of the Ooze, this trilogy showcases legendary adventures. In 1993’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III, the saga continues. This classic trilogy celebrates the legacy of Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo, and Raphael. It stands as one of the most iconic franchises of the era. The trilogy blends innovative effects, comic-book heart, and early ’90s attitude. The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles trilogy is streaming from 15th December.
CHRISTMAS IN NEW YORK (FROM HOME)
It’s truly Christmas in New York (from home). This December on ARROW, dive into The Big Apple in the early ‘80s with the vibrant and influential film Wild Style. This unique mix of fiction and documentary showcases the exciting underground scene in the South Bronx. Giving many their first look at the cultural phenomenon we now recognise as hip hop. Endlessly sampled, imitated and debated, Wild Style remains the truest portrait of the hip hop scene during its early years. And one of the most important music films ever made.
SHAW BROTHERS
Also in December, another blast of cinematic mayhem from the Hong Kong film studio Shaw Brothers, with ARROW streaming a batch of berserk treats. With the wildest and weirdest films the company ever made – Oily Maniac, Black Magic and its sequel, Bewitched, the Hex trilogy, Bat Without Wings, Bloody Parrot, The Fake Ghost Catchers, Seeding of a Ghost, and much more. From slimy creatures to supernatural wizardry to sex-crazed serial killers, the biggest collection in Arrow Video’s Shawscope series yet features sixteen films gorgeously restored in all their gory glory with an amazing array of never-before-seen bonus features.
