Product Description

In 1982, to coincide with Blade Runner's original release, Cinefex, the respected magazine devoted to movie design and special effects devoted an entire, extended issue to Ridley Scott's sci-fi masterpiece. That issue has been out of print since then, but in constant demand — copies now sell on the collector's market for over $100. Titan Books is proud to bring this classic back into print, in a remastered hardcover edition.

Described as 'the single most comprehensive examination of Blade Runner's special effects', this must-have book contains scores of images not available elsewhere, as well as authoritative text, containing in-depth, exclusive interviews with director Ridley Scott and the legendary designer Syd Mead.

Customer Reviews

Excellent Reference Material and Collectible...all in 1!
I just received my copy and WOW!. The book was shipped perfectly (Thanks Amazon.com), and was shrink wrapped to keep it pristine, I almost hated to unwrap it, but I did and it is fantastic. I remember working part time in a video store and the manager had a copy of this book in it's paperback version, and I would thumb through and read different passages, so to have my own copy in hardcover is a definite plus! This is the book that should have been in the "briefcase" limited edition of Blade Runner, not those ridiculous "collectible" tinker toys...If you own the new DVD box set?...Get this book as well...it will complete your collection perfectly!!!...(don't forget the triple cd soundtrack as well)!!!

Awesome!
If you love Blade Runner and special effects you will love this book, especially now that it's back in stock! Buy it!

The Blade Runner Book
...is already out.

The MOVIE was based on the BOOK "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?", by Philip K. Dick published in 1968. It is worth a read if you're a fan.
