John Carpenter’s Cult Classic, In the Mouth of Madness, Receives 4K UHD Release, October 2025

Arrow Video will be bringing out John Carpenter’s excellent horror thriller, In the Mouth of Madness as a Limited Edition 4K Ultra HD release this October for the UK.

This is a limited edition release that comes packed full of extras such as ‘Reversible Sleeve’, ‘Double Sided Poster’ and Perfect Bound Collector’s Book plus lots of on disc bonus content.

Arrow say the is a “Brand new 4K restoration from the original 35mm camera negative by Arrow Films”.

In the Mouth of Madness (1994) horror thriller film, directed by John Carpenter and stars Sam Neill.

Reception

A quick look over on Rotten Tomatoes reveals the film received a Tomatometer score of 59% (Critics) & Popcornmeter 73% (Audience) as of the time of writing.

However like many of John Carpenter’s movies this has gone on to become a cult classic. I really can’t recommend this movie enough, I will certainly be picking this new 4K version from Arrow Video come October.

If you do want it, I suggest pre-ordering as soon as possible as these type of titles usually sell out before the official release date!
