FUNimation Entertainment has announced and detailed the Blu-ray release of 009 Re:Cyborg, visionary director Kenji Kamiyama's intense, visually captivating sci-fi thriller. The film is being released via a Blu-ray/DVD combo pack on July 28th.
Synopsis: Many years ago, nine humans were captured and transformed into cyborgs for the purposes of becoming agents of evil. Instead, they rebelled, becoming champions of justice anytime the earth was in need. Now, in a post-9/11 world, the meaning of "justice" has become clouded. The cyborgs, untouched by time, and some without memory of their status as heroes, have since taken up lives as ordinary civilians. But when a mysterious force known only as "His Voice" compels people across the world to commit unspeakable acts of violence, even cyborg 009, Joe Shimamura, falls victim to the irresistible faceless power.
In an era when cyber-terrorism is rapidly advancing, how can the cyborgs combat an enemy that has no face, no weapons, and seemingly no motive?
The Blu-ray release of 009 Re:Cyborg is presented in 1080p with Japanese 5.1, Japanese 2.0 and English 2.0 Dolby TrueHD lossless audio tracks. English subtitles are available. Special features include:
