Weird Science 4K Ultra HD brings John Hughes’ wildly imaginative teen sci-fi comedy to life in a stunning new 4K restoration from Arrow Video. After redefining the coming-of-age film with Sixteen Candles and The Breakfast Club, Hughes veered into full-throttle fantasy, blending high-school angst, EC Comics-style absurdity, and mad-scientist mayhem into one of the most iconic cult comedies of the 1980s. When socially awkward outcasts Gary and Wyatt use a computer experiment to create the perfect woman, they get far more than they bargained for in the form of Lisa—beautiful, brilliant, and armed with reality-bending powers that turn their suburban lives upside down.

Driven by a sharp script, an endlessly quotable performance from Kelly LeBrock, and a killer synth-heavy soundtrack anchored by Oingo Boingo’s title theme, Weird Science remains a defining snapshot of mid-80s pop culture excess. This limited edition release presents both the original theatrical cut and an extended version of the film in Dolby Vision, alongside hours of archival and newly produced bonus features, making it the definitive home-video edition for fans and collectors.
