Blu-ray.com has simply introduced that the Fred Ward motion comedy — Remo Williams: The Journey Begins — will see a brand new 4K Blu-ray launch from Kino Lorber. A particular launch date has not been introduced, however the brand new bodily media is anticipated to hit retailers someday this 12 months. Becoming a member of Ward within the movie are Joel Gray, Kate Mulgrew & Wilford Brimley. The music is by Craig Safan. And the film is directed by Man Hamilton.
THE ADVENTURE BEGINS…and ends, with this, the lone big-screen journey of Remo Williams, the veteran of effectively over 100 pulp novels (printed as “The Destroyer” collection – written by Warren Murphy & Richard Sapir). This was an try by Dick Clark (of all folks) and the then-fledgling Orion Footage to launch their very own James Bond-style collection of adventures. Whereas folks might snort on the try now, they positively had motive to assume this might work, with the mind belief at Orion the identical bunch who labored at United Artists when the Bond movies have been greenlit. They even managed to get some legit 007 veterans, like director Man Hamilton, who did 4 Bonds (together with Goldfinger), and author Christopher Wooden (The Spy Who Cherished Me and Moonraker).
Our Chris Bumbray is a fan of the movie and mentioned, “Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins is a flawed, but exciting, piece of eighties action cinema. Fred Ward makes for a truly unique action hero, and the movie is fast-paced and fun, although the casting of Chiun is…problematic. If you can watch it in the right context, you’ll have a lot of fun with it.”
The outline reads,
“A New York cop who wakes up from a mysterious accident with a new identity. He finds himself in the employ of a secret unit which was set up to investigate a dangerous industrialist whose organisation has secured several government armaments contracts, including a top-secret strategic defense system.”
