Founded in 1991 as a family firm in Hertfordshire, Arrow Films started its Arrow Video imprint in 2009 for cult and horror titles and began releasing in North America in 2015. Its catalogue spans genre, world cinema and arthouse, usually with new restorations, commissioned artwork and heavy extras. The Toy Robot Video sub-label, launched in September 2026, handles lower-priced mainstream and cult releases.

Video Notes:
Arrow 4K Blu-ray see caps
It's weird. Brightly lit scenes have zero grain. They look plenty detailed and not at all waxy and lifeless, but there's no grain. Darker scenes have a fine layer of it as befits the general rule of thumb with film. Either they shot this on the 50-speed EXR stock of the day - virtually grainless in the right conditions - or it's been expertly 'grain managed'. I say 'expertly' becuz there's no trailing artefacts, no sticky grain that I can see, it's some of the best such treatment I've ever seen. And IF it has been I can only think the edict came down from the director himself.
