PRODUCT INFORMATION
101 Films presents 80s sci-fi classic Trancers (1984), on 4K UHD in the UK for the first time. In a decade packed with classic sci-fi, Trancers stands out as an underseen gem. Part tech noir thriller part zombie hunt with a healthy dose of comedy and a killer synth score, this is cult 80s cinema at its best.
Welcome to Angel City, 2247. Trooper Jack Deth (Tim Thomerson, Near Dark) is wiping out the last disciples of Whistler, who used his psychic power to ‘trance’ those with inferior minds, forcing them to follow his every desire. Though he’d been thought dead, he’s very much alive... in the year 1985. Whistler’s master plan - kill the ancestors of the city council. With the council disbanded, nothing can stop him from controlling the city. And that’s where Deth comes in. Jack is sent back in time, inhabiting the body of his ancestor. Just one problem: Whistler’s ancestor is a police detective, and he’s been trancing people in 1985. With the help of a strong-willed punk, Lena (Academy Award winner Helen Hunt) Deth must confront Whistler one final time, while the fate of time itself hangs in the balance!

Shipping
No, we only ship inside the US
Most orders for in-stock items take less than 24 hours to ship (may take longer if you place an order over the weekend). Pre-orders are shipped as soon as the product arrives. International pre-orders may not come in before the street date. This is especially true with Australian pre-orders.
We only use USPS for all shipments. If there is an issue after your order ships you will need to contact your local post office.
Product
All items that come with a slipcover will say so in the product page.
Pre-orders will not say WITH SLIPCOVER until the product comes in.
Slipcovers are not guaranteed to be in mint condition.
If you can order it, it's either in stock or a pre-order. If an item is out of stock you will not be able to add it to your cart. It's rare but our inventory may not be correct. So in some cases an item may have to be shipped separately.
