Available from 27 July 2026 as a limited 4K Ultra HD SteelBook edition, the release marks a significant moment for admirers of Kubrick’s filmography. Often regarded as one of the director’s most enigmatic works, Eyes Wide Shut was released just months after Kubrick’s death and remains the final chapter in a career that reshaped modern filmmaking through titles such as 2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange and The Shining.

Adapted from Arthur Schnitzler’s novella Traumnovelle, the film stars Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman as Dr William Harford and his wife Alice, a seemingly content married couple whose relationship begins to unravel following a candid discussion about desire, jealousy and fidelity. What follows is an increasingly surreal journey through New York’s affluent social circles, where William finds himself drawn into a secretive and unsettling underworld.

Alongside Cruise and Kidman, the cast includes Sydney Pollack, Vinessa Shaw and Rade Šerbedžija, while Jocelyn Pook’s haunting score has become inseparable from the film’s dreamlike atmosphere. Even now, there is something oddly difficult to categorise about Eyes Wide Shut. It is a psychological drama, certainly, but it also drifts into territory that continues to fascinate horror and thriller audiences decades later.

The new edition arrives with a substantial collection of bonus material. Among the newly included features are the Channel 4 documentary The Last Movie: Stanley Kubrick and Eyes Wide Shut, the featurette Lost Kubrick: The Unfinished Films of Stanley Kubrick, an interview gallery featuring Cruise, Kidman and Steven Spielberg, and Kubrick’s 1998 Directors Guild of America D.W. Griffith Award acceptance speech. Original trailers and television spots are also included.

For many viewers, the appeal of this release may not simply be the improved image quality. Kubrick’s famously precise compositions often reward repeat viewings, and perhaps that is why Eyes Wide Shut has endured. Certain scenes feel entirely clear one moment and strangely elusive the next. That quality has helped sustain discussion around the film for more than 25 years, even among those who disagree about what it ultimately means.

Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment will release Eyes Wide Shut on 4K Ultra HD SteelBook in the UK on 27 July 2026. Catch your copy before they’re gone!

Written and directed by Bruce Reisman, Married Alive follows single father Mack and his adult son Tony as they embark on what is intended to be one final off-road adventure before Tony’s wedding. The trip takes a disastrous turn when their Jeep plunges off a cliff, leaving Tony trapped beneath the wreckage in a riverbed as water levels begin to rise. With no mobile signal and time running out, Mack is forced into an uneasy partnership with a fugitive who may be his son’s only chance of survival.

Chokachi, best known to television audiences for his long-running role as Cody Madison on Baywatch, leads the cast alongside Allen Williamson, whose credits include The Rich & the Ruthless. Also appearing are Yancy Butler, Skye Coyne, Zach Mendez, Aaron Fors, Matthew Reis and Owen Alba-Harvey.

The film is produced by Chokachi, Reisman, Butler, Ryan Brown and Chris Harvey under the Stoneypoint Entertainment banner. While survival thrillers often lean heavily on physical jeopardy, the project places its father-son relationship at the heart of the story. Reisman said the film explores the difficult decisions parents face when confronted with impossible circumstances, while Studio Dome’s David Josh Lawrence described the feature as an intense examination of family and survival.

The release also arrives during a busy period for Studio Dome. Founded by producer Shaked Berenson, the company has expanded beyond distribution through its technology-driven platform serving thousands of titles across multiple streaming services. Berenson’s producing credits include genre favourites such as Turbo Kid, SLAXX, Big Ass Spider! and Tales of Halloween.

Among Studio Dome’s forthcoming titles is the horror-comedy Last Chance Motel, directed by and starring genre favourites Danielle Harris and Scout Taylor-Compton. That project brings together performers whose careers span several generations of horror cinema, a reminder of the distributor’s growing presence within the genre market.

Married Alive reaches audiences on 21 June. Check out the trailer below.

Married Alive trailer

Idly doom-scrolling like everyone else on the train, he stops for a second when a babies cry overtakes the classical music he is listening to. Spotting a mother trying to console her screaming child he then sees a slimy salaryman angrily berating her for bringing the infant on the packed train and disturbing him.

Turning away and turning up his music, our anti-hero suddenly receives a phone call from his ex who reveals to him, as he traverses the subway station past the throng of commuters and towards its exit, that she is pregnant. Asking him what he thinks she should do the connection suddenly drops and he finds himself alone in a subway corridor which is signposted as Exit 8.

Hurrying along, he heads down the mundane and unspectacular Japanese metro station passageway, passing a business man and around a corner to a sign marked Exit 0 where he turns a corner to find the same mundane and unspectacular passageway and the same walking business man. He turns a corner again and again and again until he finally realises that he is stuck in an endless loop.

Shocked confused and unable to believe what is happening, he luckily discovers there are rules to this unexpected insanity and they are relatively simple: 1 – Do not overlook any anomalies. 2 – If you find an anomalies turn back immediately. 3 – If you do not find any anomalies do not turn back and finally 4 – Go out from Exit 8.

Thus begins the Lost Man’s journey into his own personal hell, as what seems like a simple task becomes herculean and horrifying in equal measure, with the anomalies ranging from infuriatingly small details to grotesque monstrosities. With any mistakes taking him right back to Exit 0 the question seems to be will the Lost Man manage to find a way out before the murderous maze scares him to death or claims him for eternity.

Opening in first person in both a homage to the game and as an effective immersion technique, the excellent set up plunges the audience straight in to both the story and the horror. Unlike so many other video game adaptations, Exit 8 is a film where you can actually play along and we like the Lost Man start to try and memorise the environment while spotting differences all of which makes his mistakes more frustrating when we see them and he does not.

Reminiscent of the amazing first act of Christopher Smiths 2004 Creep or the 2008 Clive Barker adaptation Midnight Meat Train, it is this slight sick twist on the normality of the underground urban environment that many of us inhabit everyday on auto-pilot. This is what makes it all so unnerving, heightened by the lack of explanation to what or why this is happening.

Like the equally basic but creative sci-horror Cube from 1997, the brilliance of the film is in the repetition and the build up of expectation which toys with the viewer as much as the central character. As mentioned, the anomalies range from subtle scares to all out horror shows with a few rounds of nothing at all thrown in just to unnerve you all the more.

Seemingly synched to his psyche, themes of fatherhood and birth begin to seep into the subway, sometimes in the most horrible of ways pushing the main character to the edge of madness multiple time and the movie is as much about its characters inner journey as their repetitious physical one.

With its minimal cast and settings, Exit 8 does so much with so little proving that video game adaptations don’t have to all be kids animated adventure movies or all out action blockbusters. Eerie and evocative, disturbing and deep it is the power of its story that shines through, a story as straightforward in its set up as it is twistedly terrifying in its execution.

Exit 8 is on digital platforms 8 June and Blu-ray 29 June

The new film is being produced by Shepka Productions and Flickering Myth in partnership with IMP Studios and 4Digital Media. The project represents the latest collaboration between Shepka Productions and Flickering Myth following The Baby in the Basket and the forthcoming thriller Death Among the Pines, which is scheduled for release later this year.

The original Robert debuted in 2015 from writer-director Andrew Jones, drawing inspiration from the reportedly haunted doll housed in Key West, Florida. Jones would go on to build the property into a five-film series comprising Robert, The Curse of Robert the Doll, The Toymaker, The Legend of Robert the Doll and Robert Reborn. The final entry arrived in 2019 and marked the last instalment in the franchise before Jones’ death in 2023.

This latest chapter, currently titled Robert Returns, is being written and directed by Nathan Shepka, whose recent credits include The Baby in the Basket, Dead Before They Wake, Lock & Load and Death Among the Pines. Although Shepka has worked across action and thriller projects, the reboot places him in charge of one of British horror’s more unusual modern franchises.

Leading the cast is Elle O’Hara, known for her work in The Baby in the Basket and Wuthering Heights: House of the Damned. She is joined by 10-year-old newcomer Iona McGill, alongside Annabelle Lanyon, Stephen Kerr, Nathan Shepka and franchise veteran Lee Bane, one of the few performers with a direct connection to the original run of films.

Production duties are being shared by Nathan Shepka and Flickering Myth’s Gary Collinson, while Tony Taglienti and Sally Wood represent 4Digital Media as executive producers alongside Robert Graham of IMP Studios and Emmy Award-winning producer Kira Reed.

The reboot arrives at a time when established horror properties continue to find new life through reimaginings and relaunches. Whether Robert Returns follows the mythology established across the previous five films or charts a completely fresh path has not yet been disclosed. For now, cameras are rolling in Scotland, and one of British horror’s most persistent dolls is preparing for another comeback.

The eight-episode season will launch with a single episode before continuing with weekly instalments through to 7 August. Farrell once again leads the cast while also serving as an executive producer on the series.

Created by Mark Protosevich, Sugar first arrived on Apple TV+ in April 2024 and quickly distinguished itself from more conventional detective dramas. Combining classic private investigator influences with contemporary storytelling, the series earned praise from critics and viewers, while also receiving a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Cinematography for a Single-Camera Series.

Season two picks up after the dramatic events of the first outing, with John Sugar choosing to remain on Earth in the hope of locating his missing sister. His latest assignment begins with the search for the older brother of a rising local boxer. However, what initially appears to be a straightforward missing persons investigation gradually uncovers a wider conspiracy stretching across Los Angeles.

According to Apple TV+, the new season will force Sugar to confront difficult questions about his own moral boundaries as he becomes increasingly entangled in the case.

Alongside Farrell, the new season introduces several additions to the cast. Jin Ha, Raymond Lee, Tony Dalton, Laura Donnelly and Sasha Calle join the series, while Shea Whigham appears as a special guest star.

Behind the scenes, Sugar enters a new chapter under showrunner Sam Catlin, whose previous credits include Breaking Bad and Preacher. Catlin executive produces alongside Audrey Chon, Simon Kinberg, Farrell, Scott Greenberg and Chip Vucelich.

The series has steadily built a reputation since its debut, earning positive reviews for its visual style and Farrell’s central performance. Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes currently records an approval rating of 82 percent for the first season, while critics frequently highlighted the programme’s distinctive approach to detective fiction.

Production on the second season began in April 2025 and wrapped later that summer, following Apple TV+’s decision to renew the series in October 2024. The renewal came shortly after the first season generated significant discussion online, particularly following its late-season revelations.

Catch Sugar on Apple TV+ from 19 June.
