Deathstalker / Deathstalker II 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation
A/V quality for "Deathstalker" and "Deathstalker II: Duel of the Titans" remains satisfactory while battling a few inherent and age-related issues, and Shout Factory didn't invest in new extras for the set. It's a release for fans looking to upgrade from their Blu-rays, and get reacquainted with the world of "Deathstalker" before it returns to screens.
