After almost two decades, cult-classic zombie film series The Return of the Living Dead is getting two new sequels, the first of which is planned for December 2025. In anticipation of the series’ return, the original The Return of the Living Dead from 1985 is getting a premium steelbook release on June 10, and preorders are now open at Amazon. Originally released on 4K Blu-ray in 2022, this upcoming limited edition 4K steelbook looks like it’ll quickly become a sought-after collector’s item, thanks to gorgeous (and slightly haunting) artwork spanning both the front and back of the steelbook.
The Return of the Living Dead 4K Steelbook (Limited Edition)
$45 | Releases June 10
Since this 4K steelbook was just revealed, we’re still waiting on official word as to what exactly is included. The only thing that’s known so far is that you’ll get the premium steelbook and a 4K version of the hit film–though we wouldn’t be surprised if it’s packed with common extras like bonus features and standard Blu-ray and digital formats of the movie. Amazon lists this as a “limited edition” release, so consider locking in your preorder before it sells out. If you preorder now, you won’t be charged until the item ships, and if the price changes between now and June 10, you’ll only pay the lowest amount.

The Return of the Living Dead 4K Steelbook Bonus Features
While we don’t have a list of bonus features for this upcoming version of The Return of the Living Dead, we’d expect it to offer many of the same features available on current editions. For example, there’s already a Walmart exclusive 4K steelbook available for $35, and it includes the following:
Audio commentary with author Gary SmartAudio commentary with cast and crewThe Decade of Darkness featuretteThe FX of the Return of the Living DeadStill galleriesAnd more
Keep in mind that these special features are not yet confirmed for the upcoming steelbook, but we’d be surprised if it didn’t contain similar content. We’ll update this section when more details are revealed.
