Robert Longo's big-screen adaptation of cyberpunk godfather William Gibson's Johnny Mnemonic comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. A closed-captioned English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1, while Spanish and French soundtracks have been recorded in Dolby Digital Surround. English and Spanish subtitles are accessible. There are no supplemental materials of any consequence. This disc looks and sounds great, which, when coupled with the inexpensive list price, makes this disc worthwhile for any genre enthusiast.

Jonathan Lynn's Clue has gained something of a cult following since its original release in 1985. The disc of the film offers a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. English and French soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital Mono. English subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include the theatrical trailer. The gimmick when the film was initially released was that it had three different endings. When the film began to air on television, the three endings were combined into one finale. The disc offers the viewer the choice to view any of the three conclusions. This is a fine release from Paramount, but they really could have done more with it, especially the soundtrack.

Michael Apted's under-appreciated Thunderheart comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. English and French soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital Surround. Subtitles are accessible in both of those languages. Supplemental materials are limited to a theatrical trailer. While the extras leave something to be desired, the sound and picture quality are solid enough that this Columbia/TriStar disc should not disappoint those looking for something outside of the Hollywood mainstream.

Kevin Bacon and Robocop director Paul Verhoeven teamed up for this invisible-man story, which arrives on DVD in a special edition courtesy of Columbia/TriStar. It's a splendid package, with plenty to offer. The film itself is presented in a 1.85:1 widescreen anamorphic format. It is an impressive transfer, with strong depth and clarity. The sound is also noteworthy. Dolby Digital 5.1 is used to full effect here, especially during the harrowing lab sequences or the pell-mell chase at the end. The DVD also offers a mountain of extras, including three deleted scenes and a commentary by Bacon, Verhoeven, and screenwriter Andrew Marlowe. There are also a ton of short featurettes. Clocking in at a few minutes each, they provide details about various effects sequences and other behind-the-scenes info. Viewers are also treated to a before-and-after look at three key scenes in the movie, as well as the usual trailers and bios. Regardless of what one thinks of the film itself, the Hollow Man DVD is worth a look. The excellent picture and sound, combined with the bounty of extras, make this a special edition that lives up to its promise.
