Description

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 (Steve Railsback, The Stunt Man) sets out to destroy her, he comes face to face with the most charming—and horrifying—being he's ever known. Will he be able to destroy the lovely vampiress…or will he become yet another victim of her fatal charm?Bonus Content:2021 4K Scan of the Original Camera NegativeDangerous Beauty - An Interview with Actress Mathilda MaySpace Vampires in London - An Interview with Director Tobe HooperCalen's Curse - An Interview with Actor Steve RailsbackTeaser and Theatrical TrailersTV SpotStill GalleryRestoration on the 2018 4K Scan of the Interpositive Audio Commentary with Tobe Hooper, Moderated by Tim SullivanAudio Commentary with Make-up Effects Designer Nick Maley, Moderated by Michael Felsher]]>

  • Director's Cut - Finally Available of a Crazy, Trashy, Almost Classic Horror/SF Movie
::contains spoilers:: ::This Review is of the Shout Factory/Scream Factory Blu-Ray Version Only:: I remember seeing LIFEFORCE with friends in a New York City movie theatre, and then we spent most of our time hooting at the screen over the gobs of gratuitous-seeming nudity, some laughably unconvincing effects (especially of a then-unknown to the US Patrick Stewart, whose death is meant to be horrifying - but is hilarious thanks to him suddenly turning into a literally-bloody THUNDERBIRDS puppet version of himself!), and Steve Railsback's unhinged performance as the lead. Even so, the story, which connects human energy-draining aliens with our vampire mythology, suggested there might be a better film in there someplace - and here it is on the Blu-Ray, in Tobe Hooper's Director's Cut! Cut from 128 minutes (Hooper's first assembly, still unavailable) to 116 minutes (the Director's Cut here, shown theatrically in Europe), then hacked by US distributor TriStar to 101 minutes (the US version I saw originally), this version of LIFEFORCE is a much more coherent and suspenseful film, reminiscent of Hammer's brilliant adaptation of Nigel Kneale's QUATERMASS AND THE PIT, only on a bigger budget...and, yes, with much more nudity. It's still a crazy-trashy horror film about Naked Space Vampires kissing/sexing the life right out of British men and women, thus turning them into energy-crazed zombies, but with the Director's Cut the craziness feels more the result of Hooper's fevered talent, and the trashiness has a richness and depth it didn't have before. This is the movie I'd hoped to see when I plunked down my then-expensive $5 for a first-run movie ticket in New York City, so it's worth every penny of the $16.79 plus tax (free shipping via Amazon Prime) I paid for it. There's also a raft of Special Features, some made at the time of production (this had a blockbuster budget by Canon standards) and some created years later by Shout Factory. I haven't had a chance to dig into them yet so I can't judge how good they are, though other reviewers have praised their depth and breadth. The US version is available on the DVD disc (and if you buy the DVD only, I gather that's the version you get) - so it's there, if you want to compare the two... ... show more

  • excellent buy if bluray is produced by Shout Factory
Have seen both versions, ~ 2 hr(bluray) and shorter (dvd). The shorter version was shown in US theatres while longer version was shown in UK, etc. If the bluray/dvd is produced by "Shout Factory" then you get: Bonus Features Audio Commentary with Director Tobe Hooper Audio Commentary with Makeup Effects artist Nick Maley New interviews with Mathilda May, Steve Railsback and Director Tobe Hooper Theatrical Trailers TV Spot Still Gallery Product Information DISCS 2 - bluray/dvd RUN-TIME 116 min ASPECT RATIO 2.35:1 LANGUAGE English REGION A/1 RATING R PRODUCTION DATE 1985 CLOSED-CAPTIONED No SUBTITLES English 11/1/2017 The special effects still stand up to CGI films made today. It was made by experts in their field. The acting and actors are A film quality. The "Making of..." extra tells how film was made and how it came to fruition which is posted on youtube. Looking forward to seeing other commentaries and Maltilda May's interview. It's too bad the studio butchered the release shown in the US by cutting 20 minutes and then deleting the opening film score to post text in place of the scenes that were cut. 11/11/2017 The bluray and DVD appear to have same extras. This is one of the best scifi flicks. And the price is very reasonable. ... show more

  • Tobe Hooper’s big budget naked space vampire epic. Excellent effects, story, effects, acting, effects, nudity, and EFFECTS!
People often discuss this epic film for its nudity (and not much else) and I consider that a shame. It’s excellent, features strong acting and an elaborate story, and including great concepts and special effects. I’d recommend it to all horror fans, new and old, critical and horror-hound alike. Director Tobe Hooper (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, TCM Part 2, Poltergeist, Funhouse) is a horror master! Many know of Steven Spielberg’s heavy-handed involvement in Poltergeist and thus question Hooper’s contribution as a director. True. Spielberg is awesome and the family-urgency was likely a product of his influence. But have these Poltergeist nay-sayers even seen Lifeforce!?!?! Get ready for an AMAZING experience! An investigative space mission is graced with the discovery of the millennium! The astronauts unexpectedly encounter a 150-mile-long space vessel during an exploratory mission of Hailey’s Comet. The influence of H. R. Giger is undeniable as the vessel’s interior has an organic motif, as if the explorers were entering the anatomy (even the womb) of a leviathan being—much as in Poltergeist (1982; late in the film) or Alien/Aliens (1979, 1986). The spaceship’s inhabitants are all deceased, and they resemble bat people. You may be thinking “Are we really only 6 minutes into the running time?” The answer is YES. This film has a LOT to offer and it wastes none of your time! While most of the bat-like inhabitants are long dead, the explorers find three preserved, naked, uncannily human lifeforms in stasis chambers—two men, and a woman. Then…something mysterious happens and the mission returns home with zero contact for thirty days. So what happened on that ship that returned with no living crew members? It’s not as obvious as you may think. It’s not until mid-story that Colonel Tom Carlsen (Steve Railsback; Alligator II: The Mutation, Barb Wire, Ed Gein), who was on the original exploratory mission, is recovered as the sole mission survivor in an escape pod to inform the military that an alien vessel was encountered...and what happened on that ship. He comes back a changed man, and the only hope of hunting down the escaped female who is now wandering the streets of London and draining its inhabitants. Our interstellar succubus (Mathilda May; The Jackal) is beyond stunning, supernaturally manipulative, and clearly is on some sort of life-draining mission of her own. Her abilities infect our sexual weaknesses as well as our subconscious desires. So much so that a grown man might feel compelled to kiss Patrick Stewart (Green Room, Dune). For 1985 the special effects are fantastic!!! Utilizing Star Wars-like rotoscoping for space scenes and Ghostbusters-style ectoplasm for supernatural life-sucking effects, you almost forget this film is over 30 years old. The life-drained bodies are desiccated husks and the zombie-esque animatronics of their movement is impressive. Not only are the effects genuinely fantastic, but the concepts are as well. Classical vampire notions like the charming gaze, life-draining, telepathic links, and shapeshifting are clearly present, although cleverly modified. When the astronauts first enter the alien spaceship, it feels “strangely familiar” and when Tom sees the preserved female (Mathilda May) he seems to be entranced. And one can’t argue here, Mathilda May has entrancing boobs and a serious enthusiasm for kissing. Most men would be powerless. The first 20 minutes of this film are more substantial than most entire horror films. I know…you’re thinking “really, John, but all the nudity.” But you’d be wrong. This film remains something special even if there was not a nipple to be seen. Most interesting to me is how this 1985 movie, in the early HIV/AIDS era, captured the raw pansexuality of the vampire. Much as Anne Rice’s Lestat, even a withered male husk can allure another man to his charm. Although the “kiss” is admittedly more distant when male-to-male than when Mathilda tongue-wrangles her drained prey, infectious male-male kissing (or, at least, its implication) is quite frequent. It seems that Hellraiser (1987) and Hellbound (1988) were influenced by the exquisite life-draining effects, which set the bar high. The final segment erupts into an epidemic owing much to Dawn of the Dead (1978), with London immersed in a contagious essence-feeding maelstrom. The effects are consistently high quality and the bat monster is awesome, but the gore doesn’t properly kick in until this third act. Is this movie a work of film art? No. Is it an amazing horror film? YES! Does it have its fair share of heavy exposition? Sure. Do I care? Not at all! They deliver it well and in plausible context. This excellent horror film has my 100% backing. I may have fallen in love with it as a teenager (understandably for the boobs, at that age), but now I would love it if there were not a single nipple to boast. This film is smart, oddly elaborate without getting carried away with itself, and 96% serious in its delivery. Unusual in many respects, and noteworthy in more, this is not the film to miss. ... show more
