Co-starring Maria Conchita Alonso, Yaphet Kotto, Dweezil Zappa, Mick Fleetwood, Jim Brown, Jesse “The Body” Ventura and, in a critically acclaimed performance, Family Feud host Richard Dawson.

The year is 2019. Television is now ruling people’s lives. In the 21^st Century, the most popular “audience participation” game show is “The Running Man” – where convicts can win pardons instead of “parting gifts”, by defeating murderous henchmen known as “stalkers”. The stalkers haven’t had much of a challenge lately… until Ben Richards came along. Wrongly convicted of slaughtering 1500 innocent people, Richards is the next contestant to fight for his life… and his freedom.

When Running Man host Damon Killian says “Come on down!”, be prepared to pay with your life! But Ben Richards isn’t going down without a fight. Off Schwarzenegger goes into the burned-out sections of Los Angeles to face four of Killian’s ace stalkers: Subzero, wielding his razor-sharp hockey sticks; Buzzsaw, the maniacal motorcycle-riding slasher; Dynamo, practicing his deadly electric shock treatment; and Fireball with his mighty flame-throwing arsenal.

Now, the entire country is glued to the tube in a heart-pounding “sudden death” battle!

Straight from the school of the hard-boiled detective comes Mickey Spillane’s hard living private eye – Mike Hammer.

Played by the ruggedly sexy Armand Assante, Hammer sets out to get the guys who did in his friend Jack. His quest for vengeance leads him onto the paths of the CIA, a sexy therapy center, and a kinky killer. All along the way, there are spectacular chases and incredible excitement.

With a strong supporting cast featuring Barbara Carrera, Paul Sorvino, Judson Scott and Alan King, and action-packed direction by Richard T. Heffron… I, THE JURY is first-rate entertainment!

Synopsis: "An evil old house, the kind some people call haunted, is like an undiscovered country waiting to be explored. Hill House had stood for 90 years and might stand for 90 more. Silence lay steadily against the wood and stone of Hill House and whatever walked there, walked alone." Thus begins one of the most chilling, most frightening, truly unforgettable horror films ever. Dr. Markway is an anthropologist with a special interest in psychic phenomena who wants to try a true exercise in terror. Intrigued by the legend of Hill House, he invites two women, psychic researchers, to join him in his adventure. Mrs. Sannerson, who has inherited the old mansion, is suspicious of Dr. Markway's intentions and insists that her young nephew Luke go along with the group. Luke is a skeptic about the supernatural, until he enters Dr. Markway's eerie world. The classic forerunner of such films as Poltergeist and The Shining, The Haunting is a hair-raising screen rendition of Shirley Jackson's riveting gothic novel, The Haunting of Hill House. Like Luke, you may not believe in ghosts, but you cannot deny the terror of The Haunting! ..........................................................................................................................
