Limited edition Lifeforce 4K Ultra HD Hardbox edition release announced by Imprint Films

April 9, 2026 by Gary Collinson

Australian distributor Imprint Films has announced a new limited edition 4K Ultra HD Limited Edition Hardbox run for Lifeforce, the 1985 cult classic sci-fi horror from The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Poltergeist director Tobe Hooper and featuring an iconic, GOAT-contender of a nuddy turn from Mathilda May as an insatiable Space Vampire unleashed upon the streets of London. Limited to just 1500 units and launching pre-orders on May 12th, you can check out the details below…

When a deep-space mission investigating Halley’s Comet unknowingly brings back a mysterious humanoid creature, the population of London is quickly plunged into a nightmare of vampiric terror. The city quickly descends into chaos as the insatiable evil force builds towards an apocalypse…

The original Theatrical Cut and the longer, director-approved International Cut are both included on 4K UHD (in Dolby Vision) and on Blu-ray, alongside hours of Special Features that dive into the fascinating story behind the making of Lifeforce.

Includes a 120-page Hardcover Booklet featuring the original press kit, original production stills, and the original script.
