“Event Horizon” was one of the better science fiction – horror hybrids to ever be made. Critics missed the mark on the film, but fans have kept it alive. The new Shout! Factory Collector’s Edition is solid.
“From Noon Till Three” is a peculiar comedy starring Charles Bronson and Jill Ireland that mixes kidnapping, romance, and Western motifs. It’s pretty wild. Twilight Time gave the film a release.
“The Lawnmower Man” is probably the best known film from the brief boom of Cyber Cinema. Starring Jeff Fahey and Pierce Brosnan, it is a fun and fairly traditional science fiction film. The Shout! Factory Blu-ray is a definitive Collector’s Edition.
“Scanner Cop II” continues to develop the world of Scanner Cop Sam Staziak and introduces the villainous Volkin played by Patrick Kilpatrick. The 4K UHD from Vinegar Syndrome is impeccably done.

“Split Second” is a science-fiction action horror B-movie from the Nineties starring the great Rutger Hauer in one of his best roles. MVD Rewind has finally given fans a solid Blu-ray release.
“Demolition Man” remains one of the best science fiction-action films of the Nineties. Warner Bros. gave the film an excellent Blu-ray release in 2011.
“Virtuosity” is a delightfully over-the-top piece of Cyber Cinema from the Nineties. It’s almost as ambitious as it is ridiculous. Paramount has given the film a great looking release, but the lack of supplemental materials is a disappointment.
“Henri-Georges Clouzot’s Inferno” is a fascinating document of an unfinished work by a master filmmaker. Arrow Video’s Blu-ray is top notch.
“Giants and Toys” is an acidic takedown of the Japanese business world of the Fifties, and one of the darkest showbiz polemics of its time. Arrow Video have brought the film to Blu-ray with solid technical specs and good supplemental material.
