Warner
Home Video will be releasing a special edition of George Lucas'
classic THX-1138 later this year. The new release will
apparently be rated R by the MPAA and will also bear a new title,
THX-1138: The George Lucas Director's Cut.
John D. Lowry
worked with Jim Ward and Warner Bros. to restore the film. Ward
said of him, "After we saw what he could do with Indiana
Jones, we definitely wanted him back in the queue.”
