Night of the Juggler 4K UHD and Blu-ray Release Delayed to December 8
Transmission, a new imprint from Radiance Films, has delayed the release of Night of the Juggler (UHD+BD) to Dec. 8 due to a printing issue at the manufacturer.
Launching this November, Transmission is Radiance Films’ new UK Blu-ray line dedicated to offbeat, cult, and genre cinema inspired by grindhouse theaters, late-night television, and the VHS rental era.
Night of the Juggler is set to be its debut release.
Details on pre-orders and shipping
Radiance Films confirmed that pre-orders containing Night of the Juggler will ship without this title to avoid delaying other items.
Once stock arrives, the missing item will be sent separately. The company apologized for the delay and thanked customers for their patience while manufacturing is completed.
