“If you've never seen this mind-reeling schlocko sci-fi spectacular, then hang on to your brains. Great fun.” – Time Out Film Guide
From the director of Poltergeist and the co-writer of Alien comes a thrilling sci-fi adventure of explosive action and pulse-pounding suspense! With mind-blowing special effects by Academy Award® winner John Dykstra (1977 – Visual Effects, Star Wars), Lifeforce is a gripping mélange of genres that’s “so bizarre, it’s fascinating” (Leonard Maltin)!
A mission to investigate Halley's Comet discovers an even stranger phenomenon: an alien spacecraft! Following a deadly confrontation, the aliens arrive on Earth, where their seductive leader begins a terrifying campaign to drain the lifeforce of everyone she encounters. Her victims, in turn, continue the cycle, and soon the entire planet is in mortal danger. And when the mission's sole survivor (Steve Railsback, The Stunt Man) sets out to destroy her, he comes face to face with the most charming – and horrifying – being he's ever known. Will he be able to destroy the lovely vampiress...or will he become yet another victim of her fatal charm?

Having first seen "Lifeforce" this summer, I found myself enticed and in awe of one of the most unique entries in his filmography that feels more unnerving, fascinating and scandalous with each watch. The transfer for both edits looked good, the movie sounded amazing and the extras did a good job of establishing a fine legacy. A pleasant surprise was the reverse cover with the discontinued Collector's Edition artwork. A pleasant addition to any collection.

Great movie. The transfer to blu ray is clear and the extras are great. I did receive it in the mail with a damage case. Shout Factory did replace it which was great. This company makes great blu rays.

I always enjoyed this film. Sure it's over the top and some of the visual FX are subpar, but darn they real "go for it". The space vampire epic never disappoints, really really good schlock. Some great visuals, it's funny at times, and the music is great. Just great fun, for this is how the world ends.
