Is there a difference in PQ between the 2
@paulboland?
Picture quality on the new UK blu-ray from Studiocanal is only minor enhancements to the picture quality
UK Blu-ray has slightly better picture quality than scream factory but it's not a major upgrade
Both UK StudioCancal 2017 and USA Scream Factory 2018 Blu-ray has good picture and not much difference in picture quality IMO
Both 2013 and 2018 Scream Factory USA releases are licenced from StudioCanal
Scream Factory 2018 release has better overall extras making it the better release and the steelbook also includes a new extra
UK Blu-ray extras are from scream factory but does not include all the extras
