Mel Gibson's dystopian sci-fi series Mad Max will soon be getting the HD box set treatment thanks to Warner Bros. Home Entertainment. For the first time ever, the studio will release all three films -- Mad Max (1979), Mad Max Road Warrior (1982) and Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome (1985) -- on June 4 in one Blu-ray collection.
Here's the official statement from Warners: "From the very first film, Oscar winner George Miller (Happy Feet, 2006) proved a master at creating the gritty, bleak dystopian world and staging the incredible car stunts and crashes in the era when stuntmen, not computers, achieved the effects. All three movies starred Mel Gibson, virtually unknown until after the second film, as Max Rockatansky, a highway cop traveling through the Outback in a society descending into chaos. The films started Gibson on his road to international superstardom, led to his signature Lethal Weapon series, and later two Academy Awards for his roles as producer and director of Braveheart (1995)."
The Mad Max Trilogy Blu-ray Collection will come in a limited premium tin packaging for $49.99, making a great gift for Father's Day. Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome, which is making its Blu-ray debut, will also be made available as a single release along with Mad Max Road Warrior.
