Total Recall is coming back to Blu-ray

Just because the new Total Recall movie is coming to theaters soon, doesn’t mean we should forget about the awesome original movie. Total Recall is coming back to home video with a sharp new Blu-ray release this summer.  Behold the Total Recall: Mind-Bending Edition.

Lionsgate Official synopsis:

Quaid (Schwarzenegger) [is] a construction worker haunted by dreams of Mars in the year 2084. Against the wishes of his sexy wife (Sharon Stone, Basic Instinct), Quaid goes to Rekall, a company that implants artificial memories so he can ‘remember’ visiting the red planet that is now being settled by human inhabitants. However, Quaid soon learns he is actually an amnesiac secret agent from Mars – or is he?

Lionsgate will be presenting the film in its original aspect ratio of 1.85:1 with a 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio track.  It apparently has a new transfer and considering the poor prior release on Blu-ray, this version can only get better.

Here are the extras:
