Scarface 4K Blu-ray Movie Review
Reviewed by Jeffrey Kauffman August 2, 2024
The Film Vault has been catering to collectors who value packaging and non disc swag as much as whatever may be on a 1080 or 4K UHD disc, with a
number of really extravagantly appointed releases over the past couple of years, typically coming out around the all important holidays,
when folks may be on the lookout for something special to give. It may not exactly be "Christmas in July" (especially since it's August as this review
is being written), but The Film Vault is kind of upping its own ante in a way by revisiting some of its previous releases in new SteelBook packaging.
Film Vault's first, more extravagantly packaged, release is assessed in my
Scarface 4K Blu-ray review.

Scarface 4K Blu-ray Movie, Special Features and Extras
On disc supplements are detailed in the above linked review. As I mentioned in my recent
2001: A Space Odyssey 4K Blu-ray review of
Film Vault's SteelBook release of that film, it's obvious that whoever is in charge of design at The Film Vault is going for a uniform,
"branded" look and both the SteelBook and even the mylar O ring pretty much duplicate the look of the label's first, more extravagantly packaged,
release. The front panel repeats the image of a beleaguered at his desk, with the back panel offering the perhaps ironic "world is yours" imagery.
Tony's infamous shooting spree is captured in the inside panels.
Scarface 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation
The Film Vault is a label obviously designed for niche collectors, and if it's maybe just a little peculiar for them to be more or less "recreating" their
original designs with "new" SteelBook packaging, I'm absolutely sure there are collectors eager to add this to their shelves. Lovers of specialty
packaging will find this a handsome release, and technical merits are solid for anyone who is considering making a purchase.
