Scream Factory Bringing 'They Live' to 4K Ultra HD with Keith David NECA Action Figure


Back in 2012, Scream Factory brought John Carpenter's 1988 classic They Live to Collector's Edition Blu-ray, but the company apparently can’t get enough of the politically charged sci-fi favorite and they're celebrating it in an exciting and elaborate fashion this December!


For the first time in the U.S. and Canada, They Live is being released in a 2-Disc Ultra HD/Blu-ray format nationwide! The release is street dated for December 8th, and we currently know that it will include all previous bonus features from the previous Blu-ray release.


Bonus Features include:

  • NEW 7.1 Dolby Atmos audio

  • In Dolby Vision (HDR Compatible)

  • Audio Commentary With Writer/Director John Carpenter And Actor Roddy Piper

  • Independent Thoughts – An Interview With Writer/Director John Carpenter

  • Man Vs. Aliens – An Interview With Actor Keith David

  • Woman Of Mystery – An Interview With Actress Meg Foster

  • Watch, Look, Listen: The Sights & Sounds Of They Live – A look At The Visual Style, Stunts And Music With Director Of Photography Gary B. Kibbe, Stunt Coordinator Jeff Imada, And Co-Composer Alan Howarth

  • Original EPK: The Making Of They Live

  • Footage From Commercials Created For The Film

  • Original Theatrical Trailer

  • TV Spots

  • Still Gallery


...But that's not all!


Scream Factory has also revealed a limited edition 8" inch action figure of Keith David’s Frank Armitage, which is only available exclusively from the company's website. A perfect complement to NECA’s John Nada/Roddy Piper action figure (available in November 2020), Frank comes with two accessory machine guns, and is dressed in a purple shirt, khaki pants, and special sunglasses to see right through the aliens’ disguise. The figure will be housed in a collectible retro box packaging featuring original theatrical art. This figure is authorized and approved by David himself, with only 4,000 units being made.


Also available exclusively from Scream Factory is a 7" record on exclusive bubble gum pink vinyl via Sacred Bones Records, featuring music from the film composed by John Carpenter and recorded by John, Cody Carpenter, and Daniel Davies. The A-side includes the 2017 version of the main title and the B-side contains a never-before-released recording of "Wake Up" recorded by the trio in 2019. The bubble gum pink vinyl is a limited edition run of 2,500 copies and is housed in a lavish slipcase with new art by frequent Carpenter collaborator Chris Bilheimer.


Customers who order directly from ShoutFactory.com will receive an 18" x 24" rolled poster, while supplies last.


Scream Factory has 5 exclusive offers for this release available on their site:

  • UHD/Blu-ray with 18" x 24" rolled poster reproduction of the original theatrical poster art

  • UHD/Blu-ray with poster and new Keith David limited-edition NECA Figure
