Cyborg” Collector’s Edition | Blu-ray (Shout! Factory)
RELEASE DATE: April 24, 2018
On April 24, 2018, U.S. label Scream Factory (subsidiary to Shout! Factory) will release a Special Edition Blu-ray for Cyborg, a 1989 actioner from cult director Albert Pyun (The Sword and Sorcerer, Nemesis) that stars martial arts sensation Jean-Claude Van Damme (Death Warrant).
Cyborg takes place in a post-apocalyptic America, where a plague has wrecked the world and only a female cyborg (Dayle Haddon) has the key to finding a cure. But there’s a problem: the most powerful gang (headed by Vincent Klyn) in the wastelands will do anything they can from seeing the scientists succeed in saving the world. Read Kyle Warner’s full review.
So what kinds of features will this Special Edition include? Only time will tell. Perhaps they’ll throw in Pyun’s director’s cut of the film (aka Slinger), which has only been available in foreign markets. For now, he’s what Shout! has shared so far…
Special Features and Specs:
- Brand New Remaster
- New Bonus Features in progress
- Optional English SDH subtitles for the main feature
