Closed Captioned; Additional Footage; Soundtrack English; Soundtrack French; Director's Comments Russell Mulcahy's original saga of immortal Scotsman Connor Macleod, one of a race of immortals who can only be killed when beheaded with a sword. After living in peace for four centuries, he is challenged by an old enemy named Kurgan.
During a fierce sword battle in the 1500s, Connor MacLeod, a simple Scotsman known as a poor fighter, is mortally wounded -- but he does not die. MacLeod learns from the mysterious Ramirez that he is of a race of immortals. These rare knights never age and never reproduce, they can only meet death by the blade of another of their kind. Leaping back and forth through the centuries, MacLeod once again meets the evil Kurgan who nearly killed him 500 years ago. Produced by TESE.
The Collector's Edition laserdisc (Cat. #LV-25895) includes the director's cut of the film, which is actually the 6-minute longer version released outside the U.S. in 1986. Also included are a running film commentary, by the producers and director Russell Mulcahy, and a CAV supplement containing press releases, background profiles, text and pictures from lost scenes, trailers, and more.
Although "Highlander" made only $5 million at the U.S. box office, the film grossed almost $70 million overseas. It went on to spawn two sequels, an animated children's television series, a live-action television series on the USA cable network, a series of books, a "Highlander" Web site, a CD-ROM game and a huge merchandising catalogue.

ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES EVER FROM THE 80'S
KUDOS TO CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT, SEAN CONNERY AND CLANCY BROWN WHO WERE BRILLIANT IN THIS MOVIE. JUST GREAT ACTING BY A GREAT CAST. THIS MOVIE CAME OUT OF NOWHERE IN 1986 AND WAS A CULT HIT JUGGERNAUT JUST LIKE "EQUILBRIUM" DID IN 2002. IN MY OPINION "HIGHLANDER" WAS ONE OF THE GREATEST SCI- FI/FANTASY MOVIES EVER MADE. IT SIMPLY BELONGS IN EVERY MOVIE COLLECTION EVERYWHERE. "THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE"!

This review is for a different format. There can be only one!!!!
One of my favorite movies of all time. There are immortals among us. Very original. The cinematography, the story and the soundtrack were amazing. Unfortunately this movie set the bar so high, the sequels failed miserably to live up...proving once again that 'there can be only one!'

Kell is assisted by Kate (Lisa Barbuscia)--she seeks revenge on Duncan for giving her no choice about becoming an immortal. The VHS and DVD releases feature an extended new cut of the film.

In this labyrinthine sequel, the Immortal MacLeod (Christopher Lambert) saves the people of Earth from immanent ozone layer-related destruction by building a shield that deflects sunlight. But the people of Earth aren't especially grateful, as the constant state of night has made them cranky and prone to criminal sprees. Moreover, bounty hunters from the Immortals' home planet, Zeist, have given chase, and it could mean curtains for us all unless MacLeod and an ecologist can liberate the Earth and banish the assassins.
It's 2024 and MacLeod and Ramirez are back to save planet Earth. Ozone depletion, time travel and corporate greed are at the core of all the thrilling twists and turns in this stylish action sequel. Features new state-of-the-art special effects and digital remastering. Stars Christopher Lambert, Virginia Madsen, Michael Ironside and Sean Connery. Special bonus features include Dolby Digital EX & DTS/ES soundtrack, "Highlander 2" collection of new documentaries, a look at the music, the fabric, a 10 minute presentation reel and deleted scenes, more.

This DVD includes One On the Town (first show to be broadcast on NBC) and Polynesiantown episodes. Highlights include Leave It To Beaver 25th Anniversary, Masterpiece Theatre: All the Long-Leggedy Beasties, Play It Again, Bob, 5 Neat Guys, Sammy Maudlin Show, and Polynesiantown film. Bonus features include behind-the-scenes stories from Eugene Levy, Joe Flaherty, Catherine O'Hara, Andrea Martin, and executive producer Andrew Alexander.
An edgier version of SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE, the Canadian sketch comedy series SCTV premiered in 1977 and ran for three seasons in a half-hour format before being picked up by NBC and expanded to 90 minutes in 1981. Unusual for a sketch comedy series, SCTV's skits were tied together by the framing device of a fictional television network populated by feuding newscasters, dishonest talk show hosts, failed cabaret singers, fishing musicians, and other eccentric show biz types. In between were sketches of biting contemporary satire delivered by an inspired cast of future stars: Joe Flaherty, Eugene Levy, Andrea Martin, Rick Moranis, Catherine O'Hara, Dave Thomas, and the late-great John Candy. This collection includes the first disc of SCTV - VOLUME ONE for a total of two 90-minute episodes: "One on the Town," which features the skits "Leave it to Beaver 25th Anniversary," "Masterpiece Theatre: All the Long-Leggedy Beasties," and "Play It Again Bob;" as well as "Polynesiantown," featuring the 5 Neat Guys and "The Sammy Maudlin Show."

A gritty fairy tale of dreams deferred, HUSTLE & FLOW infuses the torpor of the Memphis ghetto with electric tension. Terrence Howard delivers the performance of a lifetime as DJay, a pimp and drug dealer eking out an existence with his three whores, one of whom, Shug (Taraji P. Henson, HOLLA), is hugely pregnant. Nola (Taryn Manning, 8 MILE) turns tricks from the backseat of DJay's beater, while Lexus (Paula Jai Parker, LOVE CHRONICLES), the hustler's high-maintenance girlfriend, strips in a cellar-like club. DJay's dissatisfaction is increasing as he senses that life has nothing more in store for him, but a chance encounter with an old school friend, Key (Anthony Anderson, KING'S RANSOM), reignites his musical aspirations. Key is a small-time recording artist, and DJay, armed with a notebook full of lyrics, pays him a visit at home, much to the displeasure of Key's prim and proper wife (Elise Neal, PLAYA'S BALL). Initially dubious, Key agrees to partner with DJay after hearing his stuff, and the two build a makeshift recording studio in DJay's back room, enlisting the aid of a skinny white boy (DJ Qualls) with an unlikely talent on the drum machine. There unfolds the triumphant meat of the story, where, against all odds--and after a few bouts of infighting--everyone pitches in to cut DJay's crunk demo.
Essentially a rags-to-riches story, director Craig Brewer avoids the saccharine through his achingly human portrayal of the characters. DJay is fraught with an undeniable misogyny that colors his otherwise sympathetic angst, and Howard portrays that complexity with grace and soul. With John Singleton in the producer's chair, HUSTLE & FLOW strikes an unprecedented balance between feel-good fare and unstinting urban drama, in what amounts to a powerful depiction of the pain and poignant struggle of those who populate this often-misinterpreted milieu.
