HOT 4K NEWS







PAUL VERHOEVEN’S sci-fi classic gets the ultimate treatment when “Total Recall” arrives as a three-disc 4K Ultra HD Combo Pack on December 8 from Lionsgate.

Restored in 4K from a scan of the original 35mm negative, the film stars Arnold Schwarzenegger (“Terminator” franchise), Rachel Ticotin (Con Air, Falling Down, The Eye), Sharon Stone (“Casino,” Basic Instinct”), and Michael Ironside (“Starship Troopers”). The project was undertaken by StudioCanal, and the restoration was supervised by Paul Verhoeven himself. The restoration crew paid particularly high attention to preserving special-effects continuity, as “Total Recall” was one of the earliest films to use computer-generated images for special effects winning the Special Achievement Award for Visual Effects at the 1990 Academy Awards.
