Screen icon Rutger Hauer (Blade Runner, Wanted: Dead or Alive) stars as blind Vietnam vet Nick Parker, who, with the calm of a Zen master and the precision of a sharpshooter, takes on a gang of ruthless Mafia killers in this action-packed odyssey from director Phillip Noyce (Dead Calm, Patriot Games). Armed with a razor-sharp sword and a cutting wit, Parker is one blind man who doesn’t bluff when the going gets tough. Caught in the crossfire of a gangland vendetta against his best friend (Terry O’Quinn, The Stepfather), Parker and his buddy’s young son are pursued across country by a barbaric band of homicidal thugs (led by hulking ex-boxer Randall “Tex” Cobb, Raising Arizona). Using superhuman senses and a hidden samurai sword, Parker slices his way through a slam-bang adventure and a drop-dead finale that’s every bit as funny as it is ferocious. Featuring Noble Willingham (Career Opportunities), Lisa Blount (Prince of Darkness), Meg Foster (They Live) and martial arts legend Shô Kosugi (Revenge of the Ninja). Special Features: -NEW Audio Commentary by Screenwriter Charles Robert Carner, Moderated by Filmmaker Douglas Hosdale -Theatrical Trailer (Newly Remastered in 2K) -Optional English Subtitles

THEY SLIME. THEY OOZE. THEY KILL. From celebrated Spanish director Juan Piquer Simón, the man behind the truly demented slasher flick Pieces (1982), comes a terrifying tale of mutant slugs on the rampage in small-town America. The townsfolk of a rural community are dying in strange and gruesome circumstances. Following the trail of horrifically mutilated cadavers, resident health inspector Mike Brady is on the case to piece together the mystery. He soon comes to a terrifying conclusion – giant slugs are breeding in the sewers beneath the town, and they’re making a meal of the locals! Based on the novel by acclaimed British horror author Shaun Hutson, Slugs outdoes its creature feature peers by adding an extra dose of gross-out gore into the equation, culminating in one of the most squirm-inducing animal attack movies ever to slither its way across screens.
