UHD movies that don't have the blu-ray version?
The only one I have noticed so far is Flash(Gordon).
I haven't opened the package but there is no mention of a blu-ray version on the cover or back just the special features on blu-ray.

It seems to have happened several times with the Best Buy 4K steelbooks. I know I had basically given away my (Burton series) Batman blu-rays when I found out the set didn't have them (and all the special features) in the package.

Last year’s Shaft movie was a Best Buy exclusive on 4K and did not include a regular Blu-ray. There’s also a Michael Schenker concert disc that is 4K only, and the past few DTS demo discs given out at CES.

The recent Blue Underground UHD of Fulci’s House by the Cemetery does not have a BD of the film. It does include a BD of special features, but it does not have the film. Curiously enough the other BU UHDs of Fulci’s films do seem to include the film on BD, just not HBTC.

Days of Thunder doesn't have a blu-ray version included. I wasn't paying attention when I bought it. I haven't upgraded to a 4K tv yet, but I wanted to future-proof my purchase. At least I can watch the digital copy.

But they've moved to single SKU combos, starting with Daughters of Darkness, so that shouldn't be an issue going forward with them.
Synapse's Suspiria release is another one that's not a combo. Discotek’s Space Adventure Cobra as well.

Well fuck that purchase then. I was going to give my son the blu.

Anyway, add Arrow's new Tremors to the list of 4K only.
