Soylent Green Limited Edition

£24.99

Released: 27th July 2026. IT'S THE YEAR 2022... PEOPLE ARE STILL THE SAME. THEY'LL DO ANYTHING TO GET WHAT THEY NEED. AND THEY NEED SOYLENT GREEN. Across a forty year career, Richard Fleischer directed classic movies in almost every decade he was working: from the epic swashbuckling of The Vikings, to the psychological chills of 10 Rillington Place... and, of course, Soylent Green: a dystopian science-fiction thriller with a venomous sting in its tail. In a frighteningly prescient world of overpopulation and ecological collapse, resources are scarce. While the elite live in spacious, walled-off communities eating natural food and drinking clean water, the masses live in squalor, collecting water from communal taps and eating highly processed food wafers made by the Soylent Corporation. Soylent Red and Soylent Yellow are a staple, but now there's a tastier and more nutritious option: Soylent Green. When a member of the Soylent Corporation's board is murdered, Detective Robert Thorn (Charlton Heston) is called in to investigate. His search for answers will lead to a shocking discovery. The final entry in a trilogy of dystopian sci-fi classics starring Charlton Heston - following Planet of the Apes and The Omega Man - Soylent Green is a devastating vision of humanity on the brink, once seen, never forgotten. 4K ULTRA HD LIMITED EDITION CONTENTS Brand new 4K restoration from the original 35mm camera negative by Arrow Films  4K (2160p) UHD Blu-ray presentation in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible) Original lossless mono audio  Optional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing  Archive audio commentary with director Richard Fleischer and star Leigh Taylor-Young  Brand new audio commentary with film historian Michael Brooke and author Johnny Mains  Charlton Heston at the BFI, an archive on-stage interview with the star of Soylent Green  Richard Fleisher at the BFl, an archive onstage interview with the director of Soylent Green  A Look at the World of Soylent Green, a vintage featurette MGM's Tribute to Edward G.
