...KHC has learned today that the Rutger Hauer-starring cult classic creature feature, Split Second, is finally coming to blu-ray from MVD Entertainment as part of their Rewind Collection! Directed by Tony Maylam (The Burning) and written by Gary Scott Thompson (The Fast and the Furious), the film is a grimy, bloody, and ultimately fun monster movie that sees Rutger Hauer playing your average sick of the world cop facing off against a vicious beast.

"In a flooded future London, Detective Harley Stone hunts a serial killer who murdered his partner, and has haunted him ever since. He soon discovers what he is hunting might not be human."

The film also stars Kim Cattrall, Alastair Duncan and Michael J. Pollard. 

​The movie will be presented in 1080p 1.85:1 widescreen, newly scanned, restored and color-graded in 4K from the 35mm internegative, with 2.0 LPCM stereo sound. MVD Entertainment will release the disc on August 11th. Check out the special features below!
