Régulièrement remis au goût du jour en vidéo, le Dune de David Lynch vient de recevoir un petit lifting en 4K qui servira de base à un combo Blu-ray 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray à paraître le 31 août chez Arrow. Ce nouveau transfert sera proposé en 2160p et pourvu d’une option HDR là où la partie audio comportera des pistes anglaises mixées en stéréo et DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1. Répartis sur deux galettes, les bonus incluront la plupart des modules vus précédemment ainsi qu’une salve non négligeable de contenu inédit comme un documentaire rétrospectif et une interview avec le maquilleur italien Giannetto de Rossi. Tous les détails, ci-dessous.
