Film Buff Friday: Double Dragon


Double Dragon (Collector's Edition) coming to Blu-ray / DVD
for the first time ever on January 22nd
All star cast includes Robert Patrick (Terminator 2: Judgement Day), 
Scott Wolf ("Party of Five"), Mark Dacascos (John Wick 3: Parabellum),

For you lovers of bad films, don't ever say I'm not a giver... 'Tis the Season after all! 

From director James Yukich (Shawn Mendes: Live at the Greek Theatre), producers Don Murphy(Transformers, Natural Born Killers), Jane Hamsher (From Hell) and Alan Schechter (Showdown), with a screenplay written by Michael Davis (Shoot 'Em Up) and Emmy® Award Winner Peter Gould (Better Call SaulBreaking Bad) comes the cult classic movie based on the video game smash hit.

Double Dragon roars to life with amazing special effects, spectacular action sequences, and a knock-about sense of humor. It's the year 2007, and what remains of LA is now ''New Angeles'', a city ravaged by earthquakes, tidal waves and vicious gangs. The evil tycoon Koga Shuko (Robert PatrickTerminator 2: Judgment Day) is obsessed with finding the two halves of a talisman known as the ''Double Dragon'', which will give him awesome mystical powers. Two teenaged brothers, Jimmy (Mark DacascosJohn Wick 3) and Billy Lee (Scott WolfParty of Five) find themselves in possession of the amulet's missing half, thrusting them into the adventure of their lives. With the help of Maria (Alyssa MilanoCharmed) and her vigilante group ''The Power Corps'', Jimmy and Billy must summon all of their courage, resourcefulness and martial-arts skills to stop the villain's malevolent plan.


Eric D. Wilkinson, who oversees the MVD Rewind Collection shares his enthusiasm for this release. "Double Dragon was arguably one of my favorite projects for the Rewind Collection. This release marks the first time Double Dragon will be available on Blu-ray and in HD in North America! Special features producer Richard Schenkman and I worked tirelessly to create some amazing brand new bonus material that includes a feature length "making of" documentary that I know collectors will love. These new bonus features along with some great archival bonus material and the addition of the pilot of the "Double Dragon" animated television series (courtesy of Invincible Entertainment), MVD is proud to present the definitive edition of Double Dragon in a kick-ass (pun intended) Blu-ray + DVD combo pack collector's set."

Crackling with the energy and humor of its two heroes, Double Dragon is a high-octane action spectacular.
