If you think you’ve seen Jean-Claude Van Damme’s Cyborg, think again. Available exclusively through Yippee Ki-Yay Mother Video is the Blu-ray for Slinger, Albert Pyun’s “Director’s Cut” of the cult classic action film from 1989!

...

Albert Pyun’s original cut of Cyborg was a dark, two-hour black-and-white rock opera with Van Damme’s dialogue dubbed by another actor.

Pyun & folks were able to put it together thanks to some VHS tapes his long-time composer still had for scoring the film.

It was available for order direct from Pyun himself, but now coming out on commercial released discs.

I don't remember much about Cyborg, but I remember being very disappointed in that movie.

You're better off than I am. I'm pretty sure I watched it, but I don't remember a single thing, even after watching the trailer. I'ma have to watch the original again then hunt down the new one.
