The Ghostbusters made their return to theaters this week, and if you like what you see on the big screen this weekend, you can preorder the upcoming Blu-ray release of Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire from Amazon. Like many other movie releases, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is available in a special steelbook edition that comes with 4K Blu-ray, 1080p Blu-ray, and digital copies of the film. The release date hasn’t been announced yet, but it should be available a few months after its theatrical run ends.
This version is priced at $56, while the full-HD Blu-ray with a DVD copy and a digital streaming code is available to preorder for $41. It’s worth noting that it’s very likely that the price will actually be reduced as the home release date draws closer, and Amazon’s preorder price guarantee ensures that you get the lowest price when it arrives. You also won’t be charged until it is available, so you can reserve your copy right now without needing to pay right away.
Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is set shortly after the events of the previous film, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, and follows the Spengler family as they set up shop in the iconic New York headquarters of the infamous paranormal exterminators. When a new spine-chilling antagonist appears and threatens to plunge New York into a new ice age, it’s up to Ghostbusters new and old to come together and save the day.
Reviews haven’t been too kind to the new Ghostbusters film, with GameSpot’s feature on the film criticizing it for having far too many plot points and playing it safe.
“We’ve got a legitimate new Ghostbusters movie on our hands, but what the franchise actually needs is to reinvent itself,” Phil Owen wrote in GameSpot’s Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire review. “Not the way Afterlife did it, by doing an ’80s-style kid adventure, but by actually finding a new direction. Instead, we’ve got essentially a Ghostbusters-themed Marvel movie that’s got several movies’ worth of plot and only occasionally made me laugh. Bummer.”
