The success of Conan the Barbarian led to 1985's
Red Sonja, which saw Brigitte Nielsen as the flame-haired warrior and
Arnold Schwarzenegger playing the Conan-like Kalidor.
Directed by Richard Fleischer and with a score by
Ennio Morricone, Red Sonja has been given a new 4K
restoration and will be released on DVD, Blu-ray, 4K Ultra HD and 4K Ultra H Limited SteelBook Edition on
July 18th.
Bonus features include feature-length documentaries on Schwarzenegger,
and Italian artist Renato Casaro; an interview with Assistant Director Michel Ferry; original trailer; and photo
gallery.
