UK Film Fans - Importing The Abyss. What are the options? (self.homevideo)

Hi.

As you may be aware, the UK isn't getting a 4K release of The Abyss. I've been looking into importing and not getting very far. I don't know if it is because it hasn't actually been released yet.

Amazon.de removes if from my basket once I login.

Amazon.com keeps bringing up the streaming version on Prime.

Amazon.ca won't ship to the UK.

Amazon.fr don't seem to have it.

Finally, Rarewaves don't list it either.

I'm guessing I should try again when these places actually have physical stock, which for Europe is around the last week of April.

I like to think of them as Demo versions, which lead me onto buying the proper 4K disc. 🏴‍☠️

Pretty much yes. You should be able to buy it through Amazon UK when it's out (they usually offer most US-only releases) or through eBay (often cheaper than Amazon). Or find a reliable film buddy who wants some UK releases.
