Mill Creek Entertainment Tabs July 9 For The 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray Combo Pack Release Of IMAX: Space Station

Last week Mill Creek Entertainment announced its first priced-to-collect Blu-ray product offerings for the month of July.   These were two new 4K transfer (both first time in widescreen) from cult filmmaker Andy Sidaris’ “Bullets, Bombs and Babes” hit series of films from the 1980s.   

Already in place and released on Apr. 16 were Malibu Express and Hard Ticket to Hawaii and now July 9 will see the arrival of Dona Speir and Hope Marie Carlton starring in Picasso Trigger and Savage Beach (both include Digital Copy).

That’s a tough act to follow, but Mill Creek Entertainment has matched the excitement of these action classics with an eye towards the celebration of the 50^th Anniversary of the Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin’s moon landing on July 20, 1969.   Available on July 9 will be a 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray Combo Pack edition of documentary filmmaker Toni Myers’ 2002 IMAX presentation of Space Station (complete with Digital Copy).

This film about the construction of the International Space Station, space walks and more has grossed over $93 million in its long-term IMAX theatrical run.  Tom Cruise serves as the narrator and the visuals are nothing short of spectacular!

Bonus goodies included with the 4K Ultra HD debut include the featurette titled “Adventures in Space,” featuring Tom Cruise, filmmaker Toni Myers and ISS astronauts, plus two technical featurettes — “Expedition 7” (a tour of the ISS) and “STS-108” (a tour of the Endeavor on its way to the ISS).

Wait!   Mill Creek Entertainment’s celebration of space continues on July 9 with the double-disc Blu-ray release of NASA: A Journey Through Space (complete with Digital Copy).

This seven-part history of the United States space program includes the following segments — “The History of Flying and the Space Race,” “Operation: Lift Off,” “Shooting for the Moon,” “The Apollo Missions,” “After a Giant Leap,” “The Shuttle and Living in Space” and “The 21st Century and Beyond.”

Bullets, Bombs and Babes and the 50^th Anniversary celebration of the Moon Landing … and Mill Creek Entertainment is just getting started!
