These additions to the Masters of Cinema and Eureka Classics ranges include world-first restorations and long-awaited debuts on Blu-ray and 4K UHD, with all titles presented in strictly limited editions.
Claire Denis’ Erotic Horror Classic Trouble Every Day Gets World-First 4K UHD Release
Claire Denis’ provocative 2001 horror film Trouble Every Day headlines the slate with its debut in a globally exclusive 4K UHD edition. A key entry in the New French Extremity movement and Denis’ first foray into genre cinema, the film stars Vincent Gallo and Béatrice Dalle in a dark, sensual exploration of desire and violence. Long considered a cult classic, Trouble Every Day is presented from a brand-new 4K restoration and will be available from 18 August 2025.
Two strictly limited editions will be released:
A dual-format collector’s set (UHD + Blu-ray) limited to 3,000 copies, featuring a hardbound slipcase, facsimile lobby cards, and a collector’s book
plus a standard Blu-ray edition, limited to 1,000 copies
Jean Epstein’s Silent Masterpiece Finis Terrae Arrives on Blu-ray in 4K Restoration
French impressionist cinema pioneer Jean Epstein’s Finis Terrae (1929) is set to make its Blu-ray debut in the UK and North America, sourced from a stunning 4K restoration by the Gaumont Film Company. A visionary tale of fishermen stranded off the coast of Brittany, the film is renowned for its poetic realism and groundbreaking use of slow motion. Epstein, often hailed as one of France’s most influential early filmmakers, co-wrote the first adaptation of The Fall of the House of Usher with Luis Buñuel.
Finis Terrae will be released on 11 August in the UK and 12 August in North America as a Limited Edition Blu-ray (2,000 copies per territory), featuring an exclusive O-card slipcase and a collector’s booklet.
Eureka Classics shines a light on Hong Kong genre cinema with a trio of wuxia films from legendary director Lo Wei, best known for launching Bruce Lee’s career. Before The Big Boss and Fist of Fury, Lo helmed numerous stylish swordplay adventures for the Shaw Brothers studio.
The new collection includes: The Black Butterfly, Death Valley and Vengeance of a Snow Girl
Each film showcases Lo’s flair for revenge-driven narratives and strong female protagonists, and represents a vital chapter in martial arts cinema history.
The set will be released on Blu-ray for the first time in the UK on 18 August and in North America on 19 August, in a Limited Edition (2,000 copies per territory) with an exclusive O-card slipcase and a collector’s booklet.
All three releases are expected to sell quickly due to their limited nature and collector appeal.

Diabolik | MVD | Oldies | Orbit DVD | Grindhouse | Unobstructed View | Amazon US | Amazon CA
