Several years ago, Scream Factory released the complete (at that time) collection of Halloween films on Blu-ray, a set that's going for over $1000 now. But, it's time to upgrade. Scream Factory / Shout Factory has announced that they are giving the first five Halloween films 4K UHD releases on September 28, 2021. The discs are available for pre-order at ShoutFactory.com.
There isn't anything new on the Halloween, Halloween II, Halloween III: Season of the Witch, Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers, or Halloween 5 discs other than the 4K scans and Dolby Atmos tracks, but if that's not enough to convince you to buy them, there are special offers designed to further entice you. If you order the individual releases from ShoutFactory.com, you'll get an exclusive rolled poster with each one featuring the brand new artwork created by Joel Robinson for the cover of whichever film you buy. Still not enough? The first three movies are also available in bundles where you'll get the 4K release, the poster, and an exclusive vinyl from Sacred Bones that features music from the movies, newly recorded by John Carpenter, Cody Carpenter, and Daniel Davies.
Here's the info on the three vinyls:
A 7" on exclusive red, orange, and yellow splatter vinyl via Sacred Bones featuring music from Halloween composed by John Carpenter and recorded by John, Cody Carpenter, and Daniel Davies. The A-side includes the "Halloween Theme" and the B-side contains a never-before-released recording of "Laurie's Theme" newly recorded by the trio. Our red, orange, and yellow splatter vinyl variant is a limited edition of 4,000 copies and is housed in a lavish slipcase with new art by frequent Carpenter collaborator Chris Bilheimer.

If you want all of this stuff, you can get the five movies, the posters, and the three vinyls in a bundle that goes for the price of $245.99.
There's another bundle that adds a set of enamel pins into the mix.
