To celebrate the film’s upcoming 30th anniversary(crikey, how on Earth can it have been thirty years!) , Mars Attacks! – directed by visionary Tim Burton – will be available for purchase on 4K UHD Blu-ray, SteelBook and Collector’s Edition on August 10.
The newly remastered film will also include new bonus content featuring the behind-the-scenes filmmakers reflecting on the making of Mars Attacks! 30 years later. I actually think the last time I saw Mars Attacks it was on VHS in my video store. It was such a fun experience and I did and do prefer it to Independence Day (although over the years I have developed a fondness for ID4 )
