Hardware (Review)

9 November 2009 12:41 AM, PST | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »

You Can't Stop Progress. Hardware Directed by Richard Stanley In a post-apocalyptic future somewhere in a radioactive desert, terminally ill Moses Baxter (Dylan McDermott) has just returned from scavenging for whatever waste he may find that could be of use to him either back home or for sale. Along his journey he discovers some robotic parts from some unknown android which he brings to his dope-smoking sculptor girlfriend Julie (Stacey Travis) as a Christmas present. She incorporates it into her latest piece, but neither of them is aware that the hardware is actually a robot programmed to kill humans. After settling in and reconnecting following his long absence, their reunion is cut short when the robot awakens, reassembles itself and resumes its original purpose as a government-sponsored population control droid. Despite few similarities, Hardware was dismissed by most as a rip-off of The Terminator. In fact, the film was heavily »

Hardware (DVD/Blu-ray Review)

30 October 2009 12:39 PM, PDT | Fangoria | See recent Fangoria news »

“This is what you want…this is what you get…this is what you want…this is what you get…” Public Image Ltd. chants under the end credits of Richard Stanley’s Hardware. If what you’ve been wanting for the last decade is a worthy disc release of the 1990 sci-fi shocker, what you get from Severin Films’ recently issued two-dvd set and Blu-ray is everything you could imagine, and a few things you probably couldn’t.

First and foremost is a fine 1.85:1 transfer that holds the hyperstylized, vibrantly hued visual scheme (described by Stanley amongst the extras as “rock ’n’ roll lighting”) extremely well, with Dolby Digital 5.1 audio that’s equally aggressive. Stanley’s command of sound and image elevates Hardware above a basic storyline that he freely admits is derivative of any number of past genre films, citing everything from spaghetti Westerns and classic science fiction literature »

'Hardware' 2-dvd special edition: A killer cyborg, Dylan McDermott, drugs... and directorial rage!

25 October 2009 7:00 AM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

The 1990 killer cyborg movie Hardware, now available as a 2-disc DVD, is important for various reasons: the low budget film's successful release in the U.S. helped bankroll a then-fledgling company called Miramax; it made a semi-star out of the largely unknown Dylan McDermott; and it also features a cameo from Carl McCoy, lead singer with U.K. goth-rockers Fields of the Nephilim, whose unearthing of a robot head in some post-apocalyptic desert wasteland at the start of the flick ultimately proves bad news for pretty much every other character. Okay, maybe McCoy's cameo isn't all that "important" an event »

Coroner’s Report: Hardware Blu-ray

23 October 2009 12:30 PM, PDT | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »

A mix of science fiction and horror, the film takes place in a Post-apocalyptic world that has seen nuclear devastation turn much of it into a radioactive wasteland.  Scavengers hunt through cities and deserts, searching for scrap metal and other things to sell off.  In the midst of this, traveling soldier Moses Baxter comes across a fellow scavenger who has found bits of a strange robot, pieces that he purchases for his artist girlfriend to use in a sculpture.  What he doesn't know, however, is that these pieces belong to a killer military robot, the Mark 13, a spider-like killer filled to the gyroscopes with ways to kill you.  Soon, the robot reactivates itself and beings repairs, arming itself with a drill, a saw blade, and reactivating its poison filled hypodermic fangs.  Obviously once this happens, the »

DVD Playhouse--October 2009

DVD Playhouse—October 2009

By

Allen Gardner

The Wizard Of Oz 70th Anniversary Ultimate Collector’S Edition (Warner Bros.) A true highlight in digital restoration technology, Warner Bros. restoration of the 1939 classic is cause for celebration. The Technicolor of the late ‘30s looks as though it was shot yesterday, and is especially stunning on Blu-ray, which was produced by scanning each of the film’s original Technicolor camera negatives using 8K resolution. From this scan, a final “capture” master was created in 4K, yielding twice the resolution seen in the master utilized for the film’s previous DVD release. Judy Garland’s Dorothy is charming as ever, and the entire cast: Ray Bolger, Bert Lahr, Jack Haley and Margaret Hamilton as the Wicked Witch, are all stellar. Four disc set bonuses include: Sing-along track; Documentaries and featurettes; Two 1914 silent films produced by Oz author L. Frank Baum, based on his stories »

‘Southland’ May Find a New Home on TNT

13 October 2009 3:57 PM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »

After we announced last week that NBC had abruptly canceled Southland, fans of the show were appropriately upset as the decision came without a single episode of the second season to making it on air. While executive producer John Wells had said he intended on shopping the show around to other networks in hopes of saving it, we had no idea when or if that would come to fruition.

Today, it looks like there may be hope for the critically acclaimed Southland as TNT is currently in talks about picking up the sophomore series. How far are the talks? Well, TNT has released this statement:

“We continually look at all programming opportunities that fit our portfolio of brands.”

 

While that’s not anything except the typical “no comment, but read between the lines” sort of statement, sources close to Southland are saying that the talks about TNT picking up the show are “advancing. »

Severin’s Hardware DVD Release Promo featuring Lemmy from Motorhead

7 October 2009 6:04 PM, PDT | SciFiCool.com | See recent SciFiCool.com news »

Ahead of their October 13th DVD & Blu Ray release of Richard Stanley’s 1990 sci-fi epic “Hardware”, the fine folks over at Severin Films have produced a new promo video featuring Lemmy of Motörhead. In the video, Lemmy recreates his cameo role from the movie as a cab driver recalling nostalgic memories from the past as he drives through a now dystopian wasteland. It was the movie that stunned audiences, shocked the MPAA and marked the debut of one of the most uncompromising filmmakers in modern horror. Golden Globe® winner Dylan McDermott (The Practice, Dark Blue) stars as a post-apocalyptic scavenger who brings home a battered cyborg skull for his metal-sculptor girlfriend. But this steel scrap contains the brain of the M.A.R.K. 13, the military’s most ferocious bio-mechancial combat droid. It is cunning, cruel, and knows how to reassemble itself. Tonight, it is reborn…and no flesh shall be spared. »

The Name Game: Back to Basics

2 October 2009 11:00 AM, PDT | People - CelebrityBabies | See recent People - CelebrityBabies news »

Celebrities are known for pushing the envelope when it comes to naming their babies — to say the least! Nameberry.com co-founder Linda Rosenkrantz notes that recently some celebrities have been blazing a different trail, however. “One of the latest trends among celebrity parents is the trend away from trendiness,” she notes. “Even though we still see some extreme choices like Bandit and Bronx, more and more celebs seem to be opting for classic, traditional, ‘normal’ names.”

Although it’s possibly a backlash against all the negative publicity provoked by their “kooky” celebrity baby name counterparts, Linda suspects that “a bigger »

Bruckheimer Pilot Coming To NBC

12 September 2009 11:49 AM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »

NBC has picked up an unnamed pilot from Jerry Bruckheimer that is toted as an action procedural series.  (Hmm, sounding like a cop show.)

A generic outline to the pilot says it’s a about a team that is charged with the responsibilities of making sure fugitive criminals don’t evade justice.

That sounds like Dog the Bounty Hunter on A&E!

The latest TV project that I know of from Bruckheimer is the wonderfully gritty undercover cop drama, Dark Blue, with Dylan McDermott, and he’s also brought out the soon-to-be-airing pilot of The Forgotten with Christian Slater.

 

Sadly, for me, Bruckheimer has been the driving force behind other shows that have hooked me, such as CSI: NY, CSI: Miami, CSI, Cold Case, Without a Trace, Eleventh Hour and oddly, The Amazing Race.

Even though the outline of this new mystery show seems familiar, Bruckheimer may just bring it »
