ANNOUNCED.... 'SCREAMERS' ON 101 FILMS' BLACK LABEL








Delighted to be able to announce that I have written a new piece for the forthcoming blu-ray release of the 1995 cult Sci-Fi horror Screamers. Released on May 4th in a limited edition box set by 101 Films and packed with lots of fabulous extras including a collector's booklet with new essays including one written by me titled When the Machines Rock: Philip K. Dick and the Dystopian Dream.

Here's the details...



Title number 013 in our Black Label range. This Limited Edition version includes a slipcase and a booklet.

101 Films presents Screamers (1995), an action-packed sci-fi thriller starring Peter Weller (Robocop), based on Philip K. Dick’s story Second Variety.

The year is 2078. The man is rebel Alliance Commander Col. Joseph Hendricksson (Weller), assigned to protect the Sirius 6B outpost from ravage and plunder at the hands of the New Economic Bloc. His state-of-the-art weaponry are known as Screamers: manmade killing devices programmed to eliminate all enemy life forms. Screamers travel underground, their intent to kill announced by piercing shrieks. They dissect their victims with sushi precision, then eradicate all traces of the carnage. They are lethal. Effective. Tidy. And somehow, they are mutating – self-replicating into human form – and slaughtering every beating heart on the planet.
