Closed Captioned; Soundtrack English; Director's Comments; Dolby Digital 5.1 Re; Special Edition Thanks to the wonders of genetic engineering, a group of soldiers killed during the Vietnam War are resurrected by the Defense Department 23 years later and turned into a team of indestructible, anti-terrorist fighting machines. But things begin to go haywire when two of the soldiers, Luc and Scott, regain their memory. Realizing that he is a pawn in an unsavory government conspiracy, Luc defects from the unit, while Scott, a shell-shocked nutcase, remembers that he has a grudge against Luc left over from their 'Nam days and goes after him with a vengeance. Luc is a genetically enhanced supersoldier pitted against his former comrades in arms as he tries to remember his past. Andrew is also a universal soldier who, driven by a hatred born decades before in Vietnam, wages a deadly pursuit against traitorous Luc. But something goes wrong and these war machines begin to revert to their past selves and slip away from their creators. Additional production company: Universal Soldier, Inc.

| | Rene Bond Double Feature - The Teaser/Frankie And Johnnie...Were Lovers DVD (1973)
Universal Soldier movie DVD
$7.89 Pixie-ish and girl-next-door cute, '70s smut princess Renee Bond radiated a charming sensuality that gave her top-billing in the Times Square porn houses. This double feature includes two of her best performances. In FRANKIE AND JOHNNIE...WERE LOVERS, Rene stars as Frankie opposite real-life lover Ric Lutze as Johnnie. With a mean ex-husband and $30,000 in the bank, Frankie pursues a career as a singer while taking up with Johnnie, a car junky who wants Frankie's cash for his own harebrained investments. This doesn't stop them from enjoying one another in all manner of unlikely places, however, and they even let Frankie's best friend Alice (Cyndee Summers) in on some of the action. Ultimately Johnnie's true intentions come to light, resulting in a hilariously over-the-top denouement. Then, THE TEASER stars Becky Sharpe as a nice girl by day, who turns into a go-go dancing tease by night. However, she has rules, and while men are free to look and lust, they are not allowed to touch. Buck (Ric Lutze) doesn't follow the rules, however, and cruelly rapes Becky as she leaves the club one night. Distraught, she takes refuge in the Beverley Hills home of Andrea (RENE BOND) and Paul (CARLOS COLE), where Andrea teaches the young novice that sex can in fact be a good experience. But before the end of the film, Becky will be sold into white slavery, participate in an orgy, and the evil Buck will put in another unwelcome appearance. Both of the titles are presented here in soft-core versions.
