ADV Films Announces Mutant X: The Complete First Season DVD Box
HOUSTON, October 5, 2004?ADV Films today announced a November 2, 2004 release date for the complete first season to the high-energy syndicated television series, Mutant X.
Produced in association with Tribune Entertainment, Marvel Studios and Fireworks Entertainment, the Saturn Award-nominated Mutant X stars John Shea (Lois and Clark, Missing), Victoria Pratt (named one of the ?25 Sexiest Women in Sci-Fi by Sci-Fi Magazine), black belt Victor Webster (Bringing Down the House), Forbes March (All My Children) and Lauren Lee Smith (Get Carter) as a group of reluctant heroes who are the unwitting victims of genetic experimentation gone awry. As a result, they have been gifted with astonishing, and sometimes deadly, powers. Fighting from the shadows, the Mutant X team is thrust into dangerous situations and secret missions to help others when conventional methods have failed. With incredible adventure, electrifying martial arts and amazing special effects, Mutant X packs a punch you won?t want to miss.
Hidden from the eyes of the world, the Genomex Corporation conducted radical genetic experiments. But something went terribly wrong. Now, the human results of the experiments are all grown up -- young mutants? with powerful abilities. There?s Shalimar, a sensual and agile feral with human and animal DNA, Brennan, who can fire bolts of electricity from his hands, Jesse, who can instantly change his body from solid as a stone to intangible as air, Emma, a pretty 'telepath' who can feel what you feel and turn your emotions against you, and Adam, their leader and, ironically, the scientist who created them.
Mutant X Season One Box Set (SRP $49.98) is a 6-disc DVD release presented in anamorphic widescreen format, containing 22 complete episodes featuring English 2.0-language audio with closed captioning. Extras include: commentary for several episodes, outtakes, episodic gallery, character profiles, cast biographies, original television promos and ADV previews.
