Special features on the DVD & Blu-Ray include Brand new audio commentary with editor Barry Zetlin, Hired to Direct - a brand new interview with director Nico Mastorakis on the making of Hired to Kill, Undercover Mercenary - a brand new interview with star Brian Thompson, Original Theatrical Trailer, Stills Gallery and Original Screenplay, entitled Freedom or Death (BD/DVD-ROM Content).

"Hired To Kill" hits retail on May 17th.

Press Release:

Starring legendary actors Oliver Reed (Gladiator, The Brood) and George Kennedy (The Delta Force and the Naked Gun series), Hired to Kill is a hugely entertaining action flick featuring guns, girls and a plethora of budget-busting explosions for good measure.

Action movie staple Brian Thompson (whose brief turn in 1984's The Terminator led to a starring role in the 1986 Sylvester Stallone vehicle Cobra) stars as Frank Ryan, a mercenary sent to track down a rebel leader in hostile territory. Posing as a fashion designer, he'll be aided by a posse of beautiful - but deadly - women.

Whilst the opportunity to see Oliver Reed chewing up the scenery behind an elaborate moustache merits the price of admission alone, Hired to Kill is also noteworthy as being co-directed by Nico Mastorakis - the man behind such cult favourites as Island of Death and The Zero Boys.
