One of the top movies that regret missing in theaters the most this year is director Eli Roth's hit adaptation of John Bellairs’ 1973 children’s horror novel THE HOUSE WITH A CLOCK IN ITS WALLS (pre-order HERE) starring Jack Black and Cate Blanchett. But if you missed the movie in theaters as I did, no worries, as today we finally know when we'll be able to snag a copy of the kid-horror flick on Blu-ray.
Universal just announced that they will be unleashing Roth's THE HOUSE WITH A CLOCK IN ITS WALLS digitally this November and on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD this December. And I don't know about you, but after looking through the massive list of killer special features, I'm thinking that this is one of those films that 100% demands to be owned on disc. Check out the full list of bonus materials below and tell me I'm wrong.

Eric Kripke (BOOGEYMAN) penned the adaptation which follows
The magical adventure tells the spine-tingling tale of 10-year-old Lewis (Owen Vaccaro) who goes to live with his uncle in a creaky old house with a mysterious tick-tocking heart. But his new town’s sleepy façade jolts to life with a secret world of warlocks and witches when Lewis accidentally awakens the dead.
