Black Friday 2026 is on 27 November, and Cyber Monday is on 30 November. As of 20 October, none of the horror Blu-ray shops we track has announced a 2026 sale. Last year's sales are below, each with a link to its source.
Live Black Friday 2026: which shops have confirmed a sale, and what they ran last year →Last year in the US
Vinegar Syndrome ran its Slashed & Trashed Black Friday Sale from Friday 28 November to 11:59 PM ET on Tuesday 2 December 2025. The sale FAQ said every VS, sub-label and partner title released before May 2025 would be 50% to 75% off SRP. Anything released from May 2025 on was left out. During the sale, Vinegar Syndrome posted on X that some limited editions were 60% off.
On the last day, Vinegar Syndrome said that all of its 2025 releases would come off the website until 1 January, and December became Partners Only month. If it does the same this year, the Black Friday sale will be the last chance to buy its 2026 titles on its own site until January.
Severin ran its sale from 12:01 AM EST on Friday 28 November to 12:01 AM PST on Tuesday 2 December 2025, only on SeverinFilms.com. According to Bloody Disgusting, most Severin and Intervision titles were 50% off SRP, some were up to 75% off, and on the Saturday only, selected box sets were up to 50% off. New releases came out on the first day, among them A Bay of Blood on 4K UHD, and the press release listed four more 4K upgrades for the Sunday.
Arrow started its Winter Sale two days earlier. Stage one, called Freaky Friday, ran from 26 to 30 November 2025 with "up to 50% off hundreds of UHDs and boxsets" on both the US and UK stores, according to Arrow. Stage two started on 1 December.
Last year in the UK
Arrow's sale above covered the UK store too. Beyond Arrow:
| Shop | 2025 offer | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Zavvi | Early deals from 7 November, more every Friday, main sale from 27 November with 2 for £30 on 4K titles | Zavvi on X |
| Rarewaves | 2 for £30 on selected 4K UHDs, 2 for £40 on steelbooks, 3 for £20 on selected Blu-rays, and a 10% code until 9am on 2 December | Collectors-Junkies |
| 88 Films | A code for 25% off sitewide with no minimum spend, posted on 26 November, with no end date given | 88 Films on X |
Severin's UK store had no Black Friday sale last year. Its press release said the sale was only on SeverinFilms.com. For Powerhouse (Indicator), Second Sight, Eureka and Diabolik, we couldn't find a reliable record of a 2025 Black Friday sale, so we don't list one.
How to plan for this year
Last year's sales didn't all start on Black Friday itself. Arrow and 88 Films started on Wednesday 26 November, Zavvi had early deals from 7 November, and Vinegar Syndrome and Severin opened at 12:01 AM Eastern on the Friday. Vinegar Syndrome, Severin and the Rarewaves code all ran until Tuesday 2 December.
Some autumn sales are running now. Arrow's Shocktober ends on 2 November, and the Powerhouse sale ends at noon UK time on 28 October. Arrow's headline discount last Black Friday was "up to 50% off", the same as Shocktober's this year. We can't tell yet whether its November prices will go any lower.
