I use this often and when you click on the titles, it will tell you which service has this price currently. I try and get them on iTunes because of the free future upgrade possibility. This is a nice way to check sales across different platforms.

Fake purists like you are as tiresome as the anime losers who refuse to accept dubbed audio as if the translated subtitles are accurate.

Filmed all over Austin.
DEAD RINGERS [vudu.com]
David Cronenberg directed The Fly and Videodrome, two other horror/sci-fi classics.
Lastly, if anybody is interested in deep cuts, I would put forth the following two Paramount titles that don't often go on sale:
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS (1923) [vudu.com]
Cecil DeMille earlier version. Not as famous as the one with Charlton Heston, but an interesting comparison of Hollywood maturation over 30 years.
1900 [vudu.com]
This is a not-very-well-known Italian film starring Robert De Niro who had just previously hit it big with Taxi Driver. Neat to see De Niro speaking Italian; obviously his native tongue. If you read his wikipedia entry, he has had a very interesting, volatile life.

In those cases, that 4K scan is a perfectly "true 4k" master on which the digital can be based...and it is. One case in point: Event Horizon. Shout Factory did 4K scan for the blu-ray release, which the studio then used to release it in 4k digital. No UHD disc has been released.
Further, film-based movies are not "fake" 4k in any way. The estimated "resolution" captured by quality 35mm film is between 4k and 8k. Yes, it's analog, but the maximum usable resolution is limited by the size of the silver nitrate crystals. It's not infinite, but it's greater than 4k. So, a good 4k scan is real 4k in every sense. It's just a different technology than digital 4k.
Finally, the greatest advantages of 4k are HDR and wide color gamut, not the resolution. So you are definitely gaining quality in most cases, even if you're stuck on one specification of the transfer that I guarantee you couldn't pick out of a side-by-side lineup 9 times out of 10.

Getting back to the deals, I just want to say that Schindler's List is an excellent first date movie, especially if you're looking to make out with someone.
