THE STORY: In a very soggy futuristic London (well, the film takes place in 2008, which was the future in 1991 when it was made), lone wolf cop Harley Stone (Rutger Hauer) goes after a serial killer he has a psychic connection to. This week we take a look at the sci-fi-action-horror hybrid SPLIT SECOND ( WATCH IT HERE – OWN IT HERE) starring the late, great Rutger Hauer. We know plenty of you horror hounds out there will have seen many of the movies we pick, but there will be plenty of you who have not.

I want to thank the 101 Films team for all of their hard work and thank the fans for their continued support of our collectors’ label.Welcome to Arrow in the Head's The Best Horror Movie You Never Saw, which will be dedicated to highlighting horror films that, for one reason or another, don't get as much love as we think they should. Once we had a beautiful new master I then reached out to 101 Films, who control the rights to Split Second in the U.K., and we worked together creating new bonus materials and locating classic material in order to make this truly the definitive release of Split Second in both North America and the U.K. With the help of Joe Rubin, we began a search for the best materials to scan. At the time of the acquisition, MVD was originally provided with an older HD master, but I felt we could do better. “While MVD licensed this film almost two years ago, as a fellow collector, it was important to me to get this release right. “Collectors have been waiting for this release for a long time,” he said in a statement. Wilkinson oversaw this project on behalf of MVD. The release includes hours of bonus material produced by 101 Films exclusively for the United States (and the United Kingdom) including new cast and crew interviews, new audio commentary, 1992 legacy features, an alternative cut of the film, deleted scenes and promos.Įric D.
