Cyclops [Visual Vengeance Collector's Edition] [Blu-ray] - New

Japan’s late-1980s V-Cinema era unleashed some wonderfully unrestrained horror, and Jōji “George” Iida’s debut Cyclops is a wild example. This 52-minute splatter film, presented on Blu-ray for the first time, begins with scientists pursuing a new form of life through grotesque human experiments. When an experiment goes disastrously wrong, a malformed cyclops mutant helps drive the researchers into the city in search of another victim, leading to a nightmare of body horror and practical-effects mayhem.
