TOBE HOOPER
LIFEFORCE (IMPRINT COLLECTION #480) - 4K + BLU-RAY
When a deep-space mission investigating Halley's Comet unknowingly brings back a mysterious humanoid creature, the population of London is quickly plunged into a nightmare of vampiric terror. The city quickly descends into chaos as the insatiable evil force builds towards an apocalypse?
LIFEFORCE is an 80s British sci-fi horror like no other. Directed by the great Tobe Hooper, this neon-soaked fever dream is packed with disturbing, surreal, erotic visuals that must be seen to be believed.
The original Theatrical Cut and the longer, director-approved International Cut are both included on 4K UHD (in Dolby Vision) and on Blu-ray, alongside hours of Special Features that dive into the fascinating story behind the making of Lifeforce.
This strictly Limited Edition packaging features a large holographic hardbox with original full-frontal artwork, and a removable PVC slipcover with partial printing.
This is a heavy, bespoke collector's item, measuring 24 x 32cm, weighing in at 2kg, and comes replete with comprehensive physical extras:
A full-colour matte laminated 27? x 40? folded print of the original Lifeforce poster, with double-sided printing of the alternate title Space Vampires variant;
