April 13, 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 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.
