This fall, Lionsgate is releasing two iconic films on 4K UHD SteelBook for the very first time. Cult classics The Devil’s Rejects and Daybreakers are both getting the 4K treatment, and will be available for purchase very soon.
First up is Daybreakers, which will be released on its 15th anniversary, September 16. In Daybreakers, a scientist/researcher named Edward Dalton (played by Ethan Hawke) is hard at work during a global apocalypse that has rendered most of humanity into vampires. Dalton is trying to create a blood substitute for Charles Bromley (Sam Neill), who operates a company currently supplying human blood.
Dalton meets Cormac (Willem Dafoe), who has somehow been cured of his vampirism, and together they pull together a team of rebellious vamps to use that knowledge for good.
