Howard the Duck
Description
One of the most talked-about movies of all time, Howard
the Duck, lands on DVD for the first time ever in an all-new Special Edition!
From executive producer George Lucas and the pages of Marvel Comics comes this
unbelievably funny comedy about a fast-talking, cigar-chomping, beer-loving
duck from a parallel universe who crashes to Earth. Featuring brand-new bonus
features, a digitally remastered picture and new 5.1 surround sound, Howard
the Duck Special Edition is a hidden treasure the whole family can enjoy.

Featurette The Stunts of Howard the Duck The Special Effects of Howard the
Duck The Music of Howard the Duck Teaser Trailers If you
concentrate on the fact that Howard the Duck was a notorious box office dud
(still brought up today) and considered one of the worst films of the ’80s,
it’s entirely possible to enjoy this special effects piffle. Howard, played by
a special effect puppet, lives on a planet where ducks evolved instead of
apes, but one day he’s sucked into a vortex and deposited on Earth. There he
befriends Beverly Switzler (Lea Thompson), lead singer for the Cherry Bombs,
becomes their manager, and, oh yeah, saves the Earth from the Dark Overlords.
Jeffrey Jones is the villain and Tim Robbins (!) is there for comic relief.
And who can resist the culmination of synthesizer pop, the Howard the Duck
theme song, as realized by the Cherry Bombs? A midnight movie that your kids
might watch more than you. –Keith Simanton
