From the Arrow Video press release:
On
February 17, the star-studded intergalactic paranormal cult epic
The Visitor makes its universal 4K UHD debut. Producer
Ovidio G. Assonitis (
Beyond the Door) conjures up a brilliantly bizarre battle between good and evil. The Limited Edition release features a brand new 4K restoration of the 109-min European version of the film from the original 35mm camera negative by Arrow Films, hours of special features, and newly commissioned extras.
Heavenly leader Yahweh (
Franco Nero,
Django) assigns Jerzy Colsowicz (
John Huston,
Chinatown) to locate the children of his vanquished rival, Zatteen. Jerzy’s trail leads to Atlanta, where one of the offspring, Katy Collins (
Paige Conner,
Little Darlings), uses her telekinetic powers to trigger a massive explosion at the end of a professional basketball game. The chaos pleases Raymond Armstead (
Lance Henriksen,
Aliens), the owner of the victorious team and the lover of Katy’s mother, Barbara (
Joanne Nail,
Switchblade Sisters). Armstead and a cabal of secretive men harbor a diabolical plan involving both mother and daughter to resurrect Zatteen. As Katy’s mystical powers grow stronger by the day, the threat becomes increasingly uncontrollable.
Mel Ferrer (
The Pyjama Girl Case),
Shelley Winters (
Lolita), and
Sam Peckinpah (director of
The Wild Bunch) appear in a hallucinatory, genre-defying battle that stretches across the cosmos.
Special features include a 4K (2160p) UHD Blu-ray presentation in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible); original lossless mono audio and an optional remixed 5.1 DTS-HD MA surround audio; optional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing; a brand new audio commentary, brand new visual essays; archival interviews with actor Lance Henriksen and others; the theatrical trailer; image gallery; and a collectors booklet.

The Visitor is distributed by MVD Entertainment Group.
What a wild looking movie with an impressive cast! Strangely, it's only being released on 4K, not on Blu-ray. From the look of the trailer, this should be a visual feast.
