$27 (was $35) | Released on June 24
Megan’s Limited Edition Steelbook includes the unrated and theatrical cuts on 4K Blu-ray, standard Blu-ray, and digital. You’ll also get a few behind-the-scenes bonus features:
Megan Steelbook Edition Special Features
- A New Vision of Horror
- Bringing Life to Megan
- Getting Hacked
The back of the steelbook case has a diagram with Megan’s tech specs. The interior artwork is designed to look like the front cover of Megan’s user manual. It shows the scene where Megan reads to Cady. The right side recommends alternative outfits for the doll, and reminds customers that each outfit is sold separately.
Megan tells the story of a lifelike doll equipped with highly advanced artificial intelligence. It’s supposed to serve as a friend to children and an assistant to parents–but when Megan begins going to extreme lengths to protect Cady, things get quite gruesome. It’s a science fiction horror film, but it’s also an effective dark comedy.
Though Megan treads extremely familiar territory as both a creepy doll movie and an exploration of the unintended horrors of AI, it’s one of the best modern horror films in both regards. Megan holds a 93 critic review average on Rotten Tomatoes and has numerous scenes that became memes on social media. But no matter how hard you try, it’s unlikely that you or your friends will reach Megan’s level when it comes to dancing ability.
It’s worth noting that Megan’s original 4K Blu-ray and and 1080p Blu-ray editions also include the unrated and theatrical cuts as well as the same bonus content. Plus, they are super cheap: The 4K edition is up for grabs for $15, while the standard Blu-ray is only $10.
