Starz Plans Trip to 'Coney Island' on Blu-ray

Digging deep into their back catalog, Starz will bring the cult classic 'Went To Coney Island On a Mission From God... Be Back By Five' to Blu-ray this January.

Although it registered barely a blip at the box office during its theatrical run in 1998, 'Coney Island' was one of the best-reviewed films of that year, earning it a January 15, 2008 Blu-ray debut.

No specs or supplemental details are yet available, although Starz/Anchor Bay did release a special edition of the film on DVD a few years back that contained an audio commentary, featurettes and other extras, so we can hope some or all of those bonuses will also appear on the Blu-ray.

Retail has been set at $24.98.
