FROM IMAGE ENTERTAINMENT: LAW AND ORDER BEYOND ALL EARTHLY BORDERS!
GERRY ANDERSON’S SPACE PRECINCT: The Complete Series Landing on DVD and Digital Download November 23 CHATSWORTH, CA – Welcome to Demeter City. It has all the “qualities” of a modern city: population crowding, traffic problems, a soaring crime rate. It is also half way across the galaxy. On November 23 Image Entertainment presents sci-fi legend Gerry Anderson’s (“Space 1999,” “Thunderbirds,” “UFO”) Space Precinct: The Complete Series -- the chronicles of two cops battling the cosmic criminals that menace their new world. Gerry Anderson, a holder of the M.B.E. (Member of the Order of the British Empire) for his services to Animation, displays his unique talents here, with the use of complex make-up techniques, special effects and puppetry. Alien offenders never looked so real!
This 5-DVD set presents all 24 episodes of the series, and will be available at an SRP of $49.98 and will also be available via digital download. Pre-book is October 26th.
Lieutenant Patrick Brogan (Ted Shackelford – “Dallas”, “Dirty Sexy Money”), a veteran of New York’s mean streets, and his rookie partner Officer Jack Haldane (Rob Youngblood – “NYPD Blue”, “Sliders”) have a new beat. They have been transferred to the planet Altor, where it is their job to protect the law-abiding citizens of Demeter City. Lost amongst planetary felons, galactic gangs…all the debris of criminal constellations…it is their job to investigate crimes committed by aliens as well as humans.
Also starring Simone Bendix (“The Inspector Lynley Mysteries”) and Jerome Willis (Perfume: The Story of a Murderer), and with directors such as John Glen (For Your Eyes Only, Octopussy, A View to a Kill) and Sidney Hayers (“Magnum P.I.”, “Remington Steele”, “The A Team”) at the helm, Space Precinct is a thrilling, otherworldly ride through an unruly universe.
Space Precinct is a high-speed, mind-bending journey into inter-galactic realms – the adventures of men who have crossed light-years to uphold the law! The Space Precinct DVD will be available prior to the Syfy Channel marathon from November 30th through December 1st.
