Fans of classic movies / horror have a new limited edition 4K Blu-ray box set to covet that includes six of Alfred Hitchcock’s best films packaged together for the first time. The lineup includes Rear Window, To Catch a Thief, Vertigo, North by Northwest, Psycho and The Birds along with over 15 hours of bonus features. To top it all off, the discs come in a deluxe, 38-page coffee table-style book with storyboards, sketches, rare photos, and exclusive artwork from Tristan Eaton.
At the time of writing, the Alfred Hitchcock 4K Blu-ray set is available to pre-order here at GRUV with a 20% discount when you use the code SIGNUP20 at checkout. That will bring the price down to $104, which isn’t bad for such a fantastic collection. Granted, you could save some money by picking up the films in 4K individually or as part of previously released sets here on Amazon, but they’re not going to look as good on your shelf as this set does. Note that will arrive on November 26th, so if you know someone that would love this as a holiday gift, consider grabbing it before they disappear for good. The special features in the set include the following:
