Last Night In Soho Comes To Digital And Blu-Ray In January
Despite some initial handwringing that the ongoing pandemic will have forever changed theatrical moviegoing (it undeniably has) for the worse (that remains to be seen!), 2021 has shaped up to be a very respectable year for movies in general. After much of the 2020 line-up experienced numerous delays and lengthy dry spells, this past year in film largely adapted to this new climate that we find ourselves in — we survived the great HBO Max day-and-date kerfuffle, "Spider-Man: No Way Home" served as a long-overdue return to theaters for much of the general public, and sprinkled throughout it all we received plenty of idiosyncratic, fascinating, and occasionally messy personal projects from established filmmakers.
"Last Night in Soho" was one such example of this, marking a turning point in director Edgar Wright's career from his usual brand of high-wire comedy to outright horror/psychological thriller territory. Upon wrapping up its theatrical run, Wright's latest will soon hit shelves on digital, Blu-ray, and 4K, where fans will be able to relive the frightening cautionary tale about the insidiousness of nostalgia as many times as they want. Check out all the details below.
