Scream Factory, the horror-thriller offshoot of independent film distributor Shout Factory, has confirmed the supplemental features that will be included on its upcoming Blu-ray release of director Stuart Gordon's film
Robot Jox (1989), starring Gary Graham, Anne-Marie Johnson, Ian Patrick Williams, and Paul Koslo. Currently, the release is scheduled to arrive on the market on July 7.
Synopsis: Directed by Stuart Gordon (Re-Animator), Robot Jox reveals a world where nations settle their territorial disputes by a single combat between two giant machines. Piloted by national heroes Achilles (Gary Graham, TV's Alien Nation) and Alexander (Paul Koslo, Shadowchaser), the robots meet in Death Valley to fight for the greatest prize of all: Alaska. But when Achilles' machine crushes 300 spectators, the match ends in a draw. Refusing to face Alexander in a rematch, Achilles is replaced by Athena (Anne-Marie Johnson, TV's Melrose Place), a genetically-engineered combat fighter. So when the GenJox is nearly killed and the game is forfeited, Achilles avenges their honor by challenging Alexander to a winner-take-all death match, in this heavy-metal, sci-fi adventure.
