The Lawnmower Man [Collector's Edition] [Blu-ray] [2 Discs] [1992]

The Lawnmower Man doesn't really have much of a plot or a compelling storyline but holds up as a remarkable achievement in its rendering of computer animation and pre-CGI effects. With its inclusion of both the Theatrical Cut and the Director's Cut, Shout! Factory compiles what should be considered the "Ultimate Edition" of the film. The label delivers stellar video and sound presentations. The movie has not looked or sounded better than it does here. Shout! has recycled the most important bonus features from the previous LD/DVD and added a terrific new making-of doc. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

A scientist performs experiments involving intelligence enhancing drugs and virtual reality on a simple-minded gardener. He puts the gardener on an extensive schedule of learning, and quickly he becomes brilliant. But at this point the gardener has a few ideas of his own on how the research should continue, and the scientist begins losing control of his experiments...

Watching this movie on Blu-ray is like looking at it for the first time, there are scenes that wasn't in the original standard dvd, the DTS HD Master audio is fantastic it has a 5.1 and 2.0 DTS audio track plus bonus material, i highly recommend you get it, long live physical media i nevered streamed a movie in my life.

Awesome film. Despite the virtual reality and efx being a bit dated, this film was great. The overall story was fun and also does a great job of making you feel sympathetic for the main character. This set also includes the directors cut.

The Lawnmower Man is a great film that finally has a collectors edition. This has both the director's and theatrical cut on it, however I bought for the around an hour long documentary about the making of this film. Scream Factory has been hitting homeruns with recent releases.

Neat movie when it came out, but didn't take long for the special effects to become completely outdated. Still, I am sucker for anything Stephen KIng related and enjoyed all the bonuses included on this one.

Decent Stephen King adaptation computer animation is quite a bit outdated but it's worth a watch.

So glad this movie has finally made its way to HD, especially with the Director's Cut included. Image quality is pretty good as well, and commentaries & trailers are included as well.
