Australian label Umbrella Entertainment has revealed its September batch of 4K Blu-ray and Blu-ray releases. They are: Black Sheep (2006), Agitator (2001), and Cypher (2002).
Black Sheep 4K Blu-ray
Description: Prepare yourself for the Violence of the Lambs in this zombie horror the likes of which ewe have never seen before…Terrified of sheep and dosed up on therapy, Henry Oldfield (Nathan Meister) returns to his family's farm to sell out to his older brother Angus (Peter Feeney), unaware that something baaaad is going on: Angus' reckless genetic engineering program. When a pair of inept environmental activists release a mutant lamb from Angus' laboratory onto the farm, thousands of sheep are turned into bloodthirsty predators. Along with farmhand Tucker (Tammy Davis) and greenie girl Experience (Danielle Mason), Henry finds himself stranded deep on the farm as his worst nightmare comes to life. Equal parts hilarious, gory and crazed, and packed with the formidable talent of Weta Workshop effects, BLACK SHEEP will have you never looking at a sheep the same way again.
Special Features and Technical Specs:
Agitator
From director Takashi Miike (Audition, Ichi the Killer) comes AGITATOR, a nihilistic yakuza epic that that spirals deep into the power struggles within Japan's organized crime underworld. When an ambitious boss sets in motion a scheme to consolidate power among rival factions, a loyal but disillusioned gang enforcer finds himself caught between duty, betrayal, and shifting alliances.Slow-burning and thoughtful while unmistakably Miike, AGITATOR is sharp, violent and realistic, further cementing Miike's reputation as one of the most exciting and innovative directors in the world.
Special Features and Technical Specs:
Cypher 4K Blu-ray
A pulse-pounding cyber-thriller starring Jeremy Northam (Gosford Park, Emma) and Lucy Liu (Kill Bill Volume 1, Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle), CYPHER builds a world where corporate espionage is the ultimate power game. When computer expert Morgan Sullivan (Northam) joins a huge multinational company, he assumes a new identity and is sent undercover to investigate corporate espionage. Before long, he finds himself caught up in a vicious cycle of paranoia and mistrust. Then along comes Rita (Liu), a sexy and smart secret agent who informs Sullivan that he's being brainwashed and that she is the only one who can help him. From Director Vincenzo Natali (Cube, Splice) CYPHER is a stylish sci-fi mind-bender that will keep you questioning reality until the final frame.
