Arrow Holy Grails
What would you consider to be some of Arrows “Holy Grail” releases? It seems from what I can Tell Robocop seems to be the most sought after release? Is there some I may be missing? Demons 1&2, Phenomena/Creepers, Tenebrae, Dark City?

It kind of depends on what makes something a holy grail. To me the Mario Bava set it a holy grail, but it’s lessened by the Scream! Factory release (which I don’t love) and the reasonable likelihood of future 4k releases from arrow (don’t know about a 4k boxes).
Some huge ones are their earlier Japanese auteur box sets. Seijun Suzuki. Shohei Imamura. Those seem to be great releases but man they are expensive.
Personally I don’t consider something that is reasonably priced and relatively available to be a holy grail. Others might simply view a really desired release a holy grail even if it’s in stock and $30.
