British label 101 Films has informed us that it will release a Limited Edition 4K Blu-ray of Charles Band's Trancers (1984), starring Tim Thomerson, Helen Hunt, Michael Stefani, Art LaFleur, and Telma Hopkins. The release is scheduled to arrive on the market on March 31.
In a decade packed with classic sci-fi, Trancers stands out as an underseen gem. Part tech noir thriller part zombie hunt with a healthy dose of comedy and a killer synth score, this is cult 80s cinema at its best.
Welcome to Angel City, 2247. Trooper Jack Deth (Tim Thomerson, Near Dark) is wiping out the last disciples of Whistler, who used his psychic power to 'trance' those with inferior minds, forcing them to follow his every desire. Though he'd been thought dead, he's very much alive... in the year 1985. Whistler's master plan - kill the ancestors of the city council. With the council disbanded, nothing can stop him from controlling the city. And that's where Deth comes in. Jack is sent back in time, inhabiting the body of his ancestor. Just one problem: Whistler's ancestor is a police detective, and he's been trancing people in 1985. With the help of a strong-willed punk, Lena (Academy Award winner Helen Hunt) Deth must confront Whistler one final time, while the fate of time itself hangs in the balance!
