Three 90s comedies are heading to Blu-ray in July.
In an early announcement to retailers, Universal is bringing 'Kindergarten Cop,' 'Cry-Baby,' and 'The Little Rascals' to Blu-ray on July 1.
'Kindergarten Cop' - Arnold Schwarzenegger stars in the unforgettable action-comedy 'Kindergarten Cop' from director Ivan Reitman. Detective John Kimble (Schwarzenegger) is a veteran of the mean streets of Los Angeles, ready and able to tackle anything. In order to trap an elusive criminal, he is forced to face his most challenging assignment yet: going undercover as a kindergarten teacher. Now facing 23 screaming kids, he has to keep them under control without blowing his top and his cover. Once he gains the respect of his class, as well as the affections of a beautiful teacher, Detective Kimble must prepare for a final confrontation with his prey.
The Blu-ray will feature 1080p video, a DTS-HD MA 2.0 soundtrack, and supplements will include a Theatrical Trailer.
'Cry-Baby' - Eisenhower is President. Rock 'n' Roll is king. And Wade "Cry-Baby" Walker is the baddest hood in his high school. Johnny Depp heads up a supercool cast as the irresistible bad boy whose amazing ability to shed one single tear drives all the girls wild - especially Allison Vernon Williams (Amy Locane), a rich, beautiful "square" who finds herself uncontrollably drawn to the dreamy juvenile delinquent and his forbidden world of rockabilly music, fast cars and faster women. Directed by John Waters, 'Cry-Baby' is an outrageous musical comedy that captures the hysterical high-throttle world of 1954.
The Blu-ray will feature 1080p video, a DTS-HD MA 2.0 soundtrack, and supplements will include: It Came From Baltimore; Deleted Scenes; and Feature Commentary with Director John Waters.
'The Little Rascals' - They're all here! Spanky, Alfalfa, Buckwheat, Darla, Stymie, Porky, Petey the dog and all of the 'Little Rascals' star in this hilarious heartwarming classic. Their new adventures begin at an emergency meeting of the "He-Man Womun Haters Club." Alfalfa has fallen in love with Darla, threatening the very existence of their "boys only" club. Further trouble ensues when their clubhouse is destroyed and their prized go-cart "The Blur" is stolen by the neighborhood bullies. How can they win the big race and its prize trophy? Through mischief and mayhem, tricks and ingenuity, the rascals will learn the value of true friendship...and even an appreciation of girls!
Specs and supplements have not been announced yet.
Suggested list price for each Blu-ray/UltraViolet combo pack is $19.98.
