Review Date:

Up! offers goofily enjoyable, daring exploitation cinema with uneven tone and graphic content, delivered in a technically impressive Blu-Ray.

  • Up! Blu-ray Front

Disc Release Date

DTS HD-MA

Video: 86

Up! arrives on Blu-ray with a meticulously restored 1080p AVC transfer from the 35mm original camera negative, offering vibrant colors, strong contrast, natural grain, and impressive definition; minor variances and fleeting imperfections are present, but overall presentation is standout.

Audio: 70

Up! delivers a DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 Mono track sourced from 35mm prints, offering crisp dialogue, strong environmental effects, and well-balanced sound, though brief moments of brashness or muffling may occur; overall, impressive fidelity for a 1976 indie.

Extra: 37

While the extras are relatively slim—featuring an engaging audio commentary by historian Elizabeth Purchell, an informative HD interview with Raven De La Croix, and a nostalgic radio spot—they provide substantial insight into Russ Meyer’s Up! and its production.

Movie: 67

Severin’s Blu-ray release of Russ Meyer’s Up! preserves the audacious 1970s sexploitation classic in high-definition, delivering cartoonish excess, explicit humor, and camp violence with outstanding visual fidelity—an unforgettable experience for cult cinema fans.
