Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment unleash an onslaught of the best action and thriller movies on DVD in April with two eagerly anticipated releases to satisfy all adrenaline seeking enthusiasts.
Ghosts of Mars – Collector’s Edition (MA15+)
Release Date: 17 April 2002
Simultaneous VHS Rental Release
Close all the windows and lock the doors, the sci-fi thriller of the year is set to rock April with the DVD release of Ghost of Mars. From the famed director of Vampires, Escape from New York and the Halloween series of films, John Carpenter’s latest mind-blowing horror is a harrowing tale of rescue and escape from a colonised Mars in the year 2025.
Sci-fi fans and DVD enthusiasts alike will be totally absorbed by the movie’s special effects made even more spectacular by the extra crisp picture quality and original widescreen presentation that only DVD offers. If watching the special effects isn’t enough then mesmerise yourself with a special effects deconstruction featurette which gives you the full scoop on how those extraordinary scenes were filmed.
After learning how the special effects were constructed, get inside the head of director John Carpenter and sci-fi babe extraordinaire Natasha Henstridge (from Species) with an in-depth audio commentary. The action doesn’t stop there though, a behind-the-scenes feature ‘Video Diary: Red Desert Nights’ and a ‘Scoring Ghosts of Mars’ featurette will take you onto the set of this incredible movie and allow you to delve into the action that’s not shown in the movie and is exclusive to those viewing the DVD. Talent profiles and original and bonus movie trailers round out this great sci-fi/thriller DVD.
The Replicant (MA15+)
Release Date: 17 April 2002
Simultaneous VHS Release
Loaded with the hottest action and mind-numbing edge of your seat suspense comes the latest DVD thriller starring Jean-Claude Van Damme. The king of action superstars, Van Damme’s previous smash hits have included Universal Soldier 1 & 2, Timecop, Streetfighter and Maximum Risk. Wherever there’s furious energy and awesome action, there’s sure to be Van Damme.
In this heart-stopping action/thriller, police officer Jake Riley and his beautiful partner Desiree are trying to crack a case of serial murders. The murderer? The ultimate bad guy, Van Damme. His next target though is personal – Jake’s mother. An original widescreen presentation offers maximum impact for this DVD - be prepared to be blown away with non-stop action and suspense!
Both of the above must-see DVDs are available to buy from major retailers and rent from video stores around Australia from 17th April 2002.
