One of the most significant Blu-ray releases during the recent Halloween season was the debut of Wes Craven’s timeless classic, A Nightmare on Elm Street, in 4K Blu-ray to celebrate the film’s 40th anniversary. This movie marked the introduction of Robert Englund’s Freddy Krueger character and is often considered one of the greatest horror films ever made. Fans are in for a special treat this Halloween season of 2025, as there will be a 4K box set release. Pre-orders began last month, but we now have a clearer picture of the Amazon exclusive limited edition (only 4000 units) and standard releases, along with a confirmed release date of September 30th. More details can be found below.
This special, limited edition Amazon-exclusive 4K Blu-ray collection features the first 7 Nightmare on Elm Street movies on 4K Ultra HD and digital format for the very first time. Each set comes with a pair of 3D glasses, a certificate of authenticity numbered uniquely, and all seven Steelbook-packaged films housed within a Steelbook Library Case. There’s also an option for a standard edition available to pre-order on Amazon. Unfortunately, the exclusive Amazon edition is already out of stock, with only 4000 sets produced, so you might miss out if it doesn’t come back. I find the cover design for the standard 4K box set rather uninspired compared to the limited edition.
