Less than a week after Tobe Hooper’s Lifeforce (watch it HERE) landed on our list of The Best ’80s Vampire Movies, Scream Factory has started accepting pre-orders for their 4K UHD collector’s edition release of the film, which has a release date of May 24th. You can get your pre-order in at THIS LINK, and it comes with an exclusive poster!
Directed by Hooper (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Poltergeist) from a screenplay by Dan O’Bannon (Alien, The Return of the Living Dead) and Don Jakoby (Arachnophobia, John Carpenter’s Vampires) and based on the novel The Space Vampires by Colin Wilson, Lifeforce has the following synopsis:
A mission to investigate Halley’s Comet discovers an even stranger phenomenon: an alien spacecraft! Following a deadly confrontation, the aliens arrive on Earth, where their seductive leader begins a terrifying campaign to drain the lifeforce of everyone she encounters. Her victims, in turn, continue the cycle, and soon the entire planet is in mortal danger. And when the mission’s sole survivor sets out to stop her, he comes face to face with the most beautiful – and most horrifying – being he’s ever known. Will he be able to destroy the vampiress … or will he become yet another victim of her fatal charm?
Lifeforce stars Steve Railsback, Mathilda May, Peter Firth, Frank Finlay, and Patrick Stewart.
