Kill Bill 4K Blu-Ray Editions Get Limited-Time Price Cuts At Amazon

Jackie Brown^[11] was Tarantino’s third film, following Reservoir Dogs^[12] and Pulp Fiction^[13]. The 1997 feature remains the director’s only adaptation of another writer’s work in his 10-film career. Jackie Brown was adapted from the classic crime novel Rum Punch^[14] by legendary author Elmore Leonard.

The 4K Blu-ray release includes a 10-part documentary series, several new featurettes, deleted and alternate scenes, promotional materials, a poster gallery, and an enhanced trivia track.

Jackie Brown stars Pam Grier as a flight attendant who regularly smuggles money from Mexico into the United States for a gun runner in Los Angeles. In addition to Grier, the movie also starred Samuel L. Jackson, Michael Keaton, Robert De Niro, Robert Foster, and Bridget Fonda. Like his first two films, Jackie Brown was well-received by critics.

Tarantino’s next film wouldn’t hit theaters for another six years, but it was certainly worth the wait. A revenge thriller starring Uma Thurman, 2003’s Kill Bill is a highlight reel of what makes Tarantino’s films special. It’s a character-driven tale full of over-the-top violence and backed by a cool soundtrack. On a technical level, it saw the director up his game with several scenes that pushed the envelop for action at the time.

Extra content for the 4K release includes a documentary titled The Making of Kill Bill Vol. 1, musical performances by the band The 5.6.7.8’s, and plenty of trailers, including the infamous “bootleg” teaser.

Anyone who enjoyed the first Kill Bill movie didn’t have to wait too long for the sequel, as Kill Bill Vol. 2 arrived a year later in 2004. It remains the only sequel in Tarantino’s filmography. Like with Vol. 1, the sequel’s 4K release includes a documentary titled The Making of Kill Bill Vol. 2 as well as the “Damoe” deleted scene, and a musical performance by Chingon.

Both films were designed to be an homage to low-budget cinema, but compared to the first movie, the Kill Bill sequel was surprisingly more restrained with its action. When it did decide to turn up the dial on cinematic violence, each action scene felt unique and shocking, exploding out of lengthy narrative sections in the movie.

If you’d like to complete your collection of Tarantino movies, you can also grab the rest of his work on Blu-ray. Several of these films haven’t made it to 4K Blu-ray yet, but most of his greatest hits like Pulp Fiction^[18], Once Upon a Time In Hollywood^[19], Reservoir Dogs^[20], and Inglourious Basterds^[21] are available in 4K. Amazon has all four of those priced for $20 or less.

Earlier this year, Arrow Video released a new 4K Blu-ray edition of Inglourious Basterds^[22] with new special features, including interviews and additional featurettes. It also has new box art and a reversible sleeve. It’s available for $25 (was $50) at Amazon–but this is roughly twice the price of the original 4K release from 2021.

Big fans of Pulp Fiction should check out the Amazon-exclusive 30th Anniversary Collector’s Edition^[23] for $60. It comes with a hardcover slipcase, pop-up art card, lobby card reproductions, and several other collectibles.
