Mortal Kombat II (Action, Adventure, Fantasy, Sci-Fi)
“Mortal Kombat II” debuts on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD Tuesday, July 28, from New Line Cinema and Warner Bros. Home Entertainment. The latest high-stakes installment in the blockbuster video game franchise is also now available to own on Digital and is currently streaming on HBO Max.
In the follow-up to the explosive 2021 cinematic adventure, the fan-favorite champions — now backed by Johnny Cage (Karl Urban, “Star Trek”) himself — face off in a final, lawless tournament to end the reign of Shao Kahn (Martyn Ford, “F9: The Fast Saga”), a tyrant who threatens the very existence of Earthrealm and its defenders.
The 4K UHD and Blu-ray releases of “Mortal Kombat II” contain five featurettes. Viewers can go behind the scenes to learn all that went into creating the latest chapter in the “Mortal Kombat” film saga and how the sequel expands the universe to bolder, bloodier heights in “‘Mortal Kombat II:’ Evolving the Saga;” discover how the “Mortal Kombat II” design teams blended practical sets with groundbreaking VFX to create the decaying streets of Edenia and the terrifying Pit featured in the iconic video game series in “Building the Realms of ‘Mortal Kombat;’” meet the cast and explore the brutal weapons, epic costumes and fierce training that went into bringing their characters to life in “‘Mortal Kombat II:’ Choose Your Fighter;” hear from cast members and key creatives as they share insights into how the stunt preparation, intense fight scenes and weapons training shaped both classic moves and new, merciless combat styles in “Klose Quarters Kombat;” and sit down with chief “Mortal Kombat” mythmaker and creator Ed Boon for a deep dive into the franchise’s storied history and ongoing evolution that spans three decades of near-infinite games, films and comics — culminating with the live-action sequel — in “A ‘Boon’ to Gamers Everywhere.”
Scary Movie — Extended Cut (Comedy, Horror)
Get ready for more laughs, more madness and even more lines crossed, as “Scary Movie — Extended Cut” is now available to own on Digital from Paramount Home Entertainment. The hit comedy also debuts on Blu-ray and DVD Tuesday, Sept. 22.
Twenty-six years after the original massacre, Cindy (Anna Faris, “Mom”), Brenda (Regina Hall, “Girls Trip”), Shorty (Marlon Wayans, “Bel-Air”) and Ray (Shawn Wayans, “White Chicks”) get dragged back into the chaos by a brand-new masked killer who clearly never learned when to quit.
Viewers who purchase “Scary Movie — Extended Cut” on Digital can relive the madness with the movie’s original theatrical cut, then see how things could have gone down with a never-before-seen alternate ending. Four behind-the-scenes featurettes are also included on the release. Viewers can catch up with the original crew — older, wiser and absolutely no better behaved — as they reunite to reflect on the franchise that redefined parody and why they came back to do it all over again in “Scream Together;” meet the new cast who knew exactly what they were walking into and got thrown in the deep end anyway in “Fresh Meat;” get a front-row seat to Marlon, Shawn and Gregg Wayans (Brad) doing what they do best — breaking each other and everyone else on set — in “Wayans World;” and go inside the most outrageous unhinged moments in the movie and find out exactly how the cast and crew got away with them in “Scene Dissection.”
In the spirit of “Scary Movie,” horror’s most infamous masked icon has launched a free-to-subscribe OnlyFans to celebrate the film’s arrival on Digital. Ghostface is introducing himself to fans and teasing “spicy content” made just for subscribers — and he’s not doing it alone.
