Disc 2 (the Blu-ray) contains the film (new HD master from a 4K scan of the original camera negative), both new audio commentaries (by action film historian Mike Leeder and by film historian Howard S. Berger), and the theatrical trailer (newly mastered in 2K). Investigative writer Blair Maynard (Michael Caine) travels to the Caribbean to look into the mysterious disappearance of pleasure boats and their passengers — and is captured, with his twelve-year-old son, by a savage tribe of modern-day pirates descended from 17th-century buccaneers, who need him to improve their degenerated gene pool. When his son is converted to the pirates' ways and turns against him, Maynard must fight to rescue him.
