What I like about Arrow and Vinegar Syndrome releases is that they care. Because they are truly committed to the value of physical movie collecting which is an experience that is becoming totally lost to the convenience of streaming video. I like the idea of obtaining booklets or film posters that are included with their limited edition 4K Blurays. A few of my titles include Barbarella and Phase IV.
Arrow Video, Kino Lorber, and Criterion are my three favorite boutique labels. My favorites are from Arrow, though: Tremors, The Hellraiser Scarlet Box Set, Dune 1984, The Last Starfighter, The Dunwich Horror, The Last House on the Left 2009, and my recent acquisition from them: The Lady Whirlwind and Hapkido double feature, because I AM into the whole martial arts scene. When it comes to special features, I think Arrow is almost on the same level as Criterion.
I actually have way more Arrow Video releases than Criterion and partly because they have so many good sales. They did two really fantastic collections of Gamera films full of special features.
Arrow Video are going from strength to strength. Having recently purchased the 4K Fistful Of Dollars and For A Few Dollars More, they've certainly improved on the Kino Lorber releases of a few years ago. I've recently purchased Criterion's 4K release of Thief, but I'm curious if Arrow can better this with their own forthcoming 4K release of the same movie.
