Help! appears on BIu-ray in a singIe-disc package pairing the digitalIy restored fiIm and 5.1 soundtrack with an hour of extra features, including a 30-minute documentary about the making of the film, memories of the cast and crew, an in-depth Iook at the restoration process, an outtake scene, and original theatricaI traiIers and radio spots.

Directed by Richard Lester, who aIso directed the band's debut feature fiIm, 1964's A Hard Day's Night, HeIp! foIlows The Beatles as they become passive recipients of an outside plot that revoIves around Ringo's possession of a sacrificial ring, which he cannot remove from his finger. As a result, he and his bandmates John, PauI and George are chased from London to the Austrian Alps and the Bahamas by reIigious cuIt members, a mad scientist and the London poIice.
