10 Years Later, Bong Joon-Ho's Snowpiercer Is Finally Coming to 4K Blu-Ray

As a longtime fan of thought-provoking cinema, I can’t help but get excited about the 4K Blu-ray release of Snowpiercer! Over a decade since its initial release, this classic film, directed by the brilliant Bong Joon-Ho, is finally getting the high-definition treatment it deserves.

10 years since its initial release, I’m thrilled to share that Snowpiercer is finally making its debut in stunning 4K Blu-ray! This special edition comes housed in a collectible steelbook case adorned with fresh artwork. If you’re as eager as I am to add this masterpiece to your collection, preorders are now live on Amazon ahead of its release on January 14, 2025, and for only $35, it can be yours!

This film, titled “Snowpiercer,” was initially praised by critics upon its release, with Bong Joon-Ho as the director and an impressive cast featuring Tilda Swinton, Ed Harris, Song Kang-Ho, Jamie Bell, Octavia Spencer, Go Ah-Sung, and John Hurt. Based on the French graphic novel “Le Transperceneige” by Jacques Lob, this movie eventually led to a TV series in 2020 that ran for multiple seasons. If you’re interested in reading the original source material, you can purchase a bundle of all three Snowpiercer graphic novels in hardcover format, along with three exclusive art cards, at Amazon for $60.22 (originally priced at $80).

In English language filmmaking, Bong Joon-ho made his debut with Snowpiercer, a movie that has since been followed by numerous other critically acclaimed productions such as the dark comedy Parasite, which became the first non-English film to win an Oscar for Best Picture in 2020. Other films directed by this South Korean filmmaker include crime thrillers like Memories of Murder and Mother, the monster movie The Host from 2006, and the sci-fi adventure Okja. Despite venturing into different genres, all of Bong’s movies share common themes of environmentalism and class struggle. If you want to explore his work, several of his films are accessible on Amazon, including various Criterion Collection editions.
