As the breakthrough movie of legendary director David Cronenberg (The Brood, The Fly, Videodrome), Scanners has been firmly lodged as the cornerstone of 1980s horror/sci-fi and now the seminal shocker is set for a Limited Edition makeover from experts in the field, Second Sight Films, this March – and we’re giving away a copy!
Scanners follows drifter Cameron Vale (Stephen Lack – Dead Ringers) who is plagued by incessant voices in his head, unaware that he’s a ‘Scanner’ – a person with extraordinary telepathic powers, who can not only read minds but literally tear them apart.
When he meets Dr. Paul Ruth (Patrick McGoohan – The Prisoners), the scientist recruits him and others of his kind to help them adapt to society. But a sinister underground movement of Scanners led by the psychotic Darryl Revok (Michael Ironside – Total Recall, Starship Troopers) have other intentions and the ultimate confrontation of minds awaits.
The brand new Scanners Limited Edition 4K/UHD and Blu-ray Box set is set for release on 31 March 2024 and will also be available in Standard Edition 4K and Blu-ray. The groundbreaking special effects and iconic explosive scenes are about to be seen in all their grotesque glory with a brand-new 4K restoration, with the approval of Cronenberg himself. And you can experience this for yourself if our latest competition to give away a copy!
The set is presented in a stunning rigid slipcase complete with new artwork by Krishna Shenoi and comes packed with a slew of brilliant special features including a new commentary, interviews with cast and crew, including Micheal Ironside. There’s also a 120-page book filled with essays and more.
