MONKEY – THE COMPLETE SERIES Blu-ray Artwork, Packaging & Restoration Revealed!

“Elemental forces caused the egg to hatch. From it then came a stone monkey. The nature of Monkey was irrepressible….”

If you’re unfamiliar with MONKEY, you lived a sheltered childhood. Don’t despair though as Umbrella Entertainment are releasing MONKEY – THE COMPLETE SERIES on home entertainment this October so you’ll finally be able to relate with your peers!

Painstakingly restored in high-definition, this will mark the Blu-ray debut of the beloved TV Series and for the naysayers asking how good can it look, check that this teaser below that not only sports the stunning new transfer but has a direct comparison between the prior DVD release and this all-new restoration.

Prince Chaos ruled the worlds before Monkey. Monkey was born of time, of Heaven and earth, sun and Moon, out of a stone egg. He was irrepressible! The place was like Ancient China and the time might have been a thousand years ago. They fought – and they thought – then, as now. Holy Tripitaka prayed. One disciple, Sandy, a fish-spirit. Pigsy, expelled fromHeaven for greed, is a spirit of a pig. He is changing. Everything changes. There is a horse, once a dragon, now evolving into human form. Monkey, Horse, Sandy, Pigsy and Tripitaka are all upon a journey as long as life.
