Hardware

Not perfect, but a must have for me:

Blu-ray.com - Hardware Blu-ray Review

 

[Hooligaani]

Yep I'm getting this, will wait for the price to drop a bit though, a bit rich at £17.48.

Wow, that is a film from the past. I used to do it as a double with Dust Devil back when I had VHS.

 

[Hawklord]

Bit of a steep outlay to see carl Macoy's hand

I probably would have bought this even with the reveiws but I caught it on Zone Horror a few months ago and man is it a bit on the crappy side.
Stanley's next film, Dust Devil was far superior

For those of you interested, this is getting a Region A release on September 29th (after they decided to region lock the UK release).

Cheesy as hell, but i'm looking forward to it. All they need to do now, is release Robot Jox and Crash and Burn on Blu-ray and i'll be a happy man.

EDIT: And Runaway. Someone has to release that awesome piece of crap on Blu. Please?

And Runaway.

Couldn't wait, caved in and bought the region 1 dvd. Fine slice of sci fi hokum.

Bought the Aussie disc, love it. Hardware is crap though, IMO. Watch the bit where Lemmy pops up, truly cringeworthy stuff. Improvised dialogue?

YouTube - Runaway trailer (1985)

Yes. It's an often forgotten slice of 80's awesomeness (probably forgotten because it came out the same year as the Terminator), complete with robotic killer spiders.

I'm tempted to buy the DVD, but I know as soon as I do, they'll announce the Blu-ray.

 

[dannydj]

yep - that looks like my sort of pie. thanks for the trailer

Anyone even remotely interested in Jerry Goldsmith's work should check out Runaway. I believe that it was his first predominantly electonic based score.
