Description

Expect the unexpected… he does. Neurosurgeon. Physicist.
Rock Star. Hero. Buckaroo Banzai (Peter Weller, Robocop) is a true 80s
renaissance man. With the help of his uniquely qualified team, The Hong Kong
Cavaliers, Buckaroo is ready to save the world on a moment’s notice. But after
his successful test of the Oscillation Overthruster (a device that allows him
to travel through solid matter) he unleashes the threat of evil, pure and
simple from the 8th Dimension… the alien Red Lectroids. Led by the deranged
dictator Lord John Whorfin (John Lithgow), the Lectroids steal the
Overthruster with the intent of using it to return to their home of Planet 10
real soon! But no matter where you go, there Buckaroo Banzai is… ready to
battle an interdimensional menace that could spell doom for the human race.
How can Buckaroo stop the Lectroids’ fiendish plots? Who is the mysterious
Penny Priddy? Why is there a watermelon there? For the answers to these and
other questions, you have to watch The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai, monkey
boy! Featuring Ellen Barkin, Jeff Goldblum, Christopher Lloyd, and Clancy
Brown, Buckaroo Banzai is a cleverly crazed cult classic as only the 80s could
deliver. Special Features Include:Disc 1 (Blu-ray): -“Into The 8th Dimension:

Review The Blu-ray is a must have. With glorious looking video and a top-notch
documentary, it certainly worth the purchase. And for everyone else, its a
marvelous opportunity to discover a surprisingly funny and confident film.
–Bleeding Cool, August 2016 Into the 8th Dimension is a superb in-depth piece
that gets into almost picayune detail about everything from pre- production
and casting to SFX and the film’s release. Interviews abound in this well done
documentary…Technical merits are strong, and at least for those with a skewed
sense of humor, The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension
comes Highly recommended –Blu-ray.com, August 2016
