ANNOUNCED.... 'UPGRADE' LIMITED EDITION BOX SET

Very excited to announce that I am contributing a brand new film essay for the forthcoming blu-ray release of the 2018 dark cyberpunk thriller Upgrade. It will be released this coming November in a limited edition box set by Second Sight Films, and will be packed with lots of fabulous extras including a 40 page soft cover book with new essays by me and film critic and author Jon Towlson.

Here's the details...

Director: Leigh Whannell

Starring: Starring Logan Marshall-Green, Melanie Vallejo, Steve Danielsen

In a near-future world, where technology controls everything, technophobe Grey Trace is the victim of a brutal mugging that leaves his wife dead and him paralyzed. A reclusive billionaire inventor offers him an experimental cure, an A.I. implant called STEM. Grey accepts and is immediately transformed into an unstoppable killing machine with enhanced strength and agility. Now it’s payback time.

This hugely successful collaboration between genre specialists Blumhouse and the creator of the Saw franchise has become an instant cyberpunk classic.
