Even the Blu-ray was a muddy, murky affair. Therefore, the UHD transfer is a miracle. While in itself the presentation can be inconsistent, especially in a level of grain occasionally smoothing out, it still looks like a different, fresher film. The opening and subsequent scenes in the underground garage are sharp and full of detail in shadows. All the modern day sequences respond well to a 4K brush up, detail in faces and textures is enhanced beautifully. Effects shots have survived surprisingly well and actual sparks can be appreciated in the sword battles.

Highlander is a dated, over the top, preposterous film. It’s also beautiful, imaginative, and aims to be more than it should be. As an important piece of cultural art, it’s right that it has been been reissued in this cleaner, crisper format. The addition of decent interviews with the people who were there, giving us the opportunity to both learn first-hand what it was like, as well as see the real affection these people have for the film, makes this a well recommended release.
