On July 20, Universal Home Video will unleash a virus of a special kind onto unsuspecting DVD audiences. Virus, the terrifying science fiction nightmare starring Jamie Lee Curtis, William Baldwin and Donald Sutherland will hit the shelves in an 16×9 enhanced widescreen version, including a 20-minute “Making-Of” documentary and an 8-minute featurette, deleted scenes, trailers, a screen saver and a running length commentary track by director John Bruno.

Instead of being a virus movie about some terrible disease, this one is about computers that have been taken over by an alien lifeform, with the added thriller element of a number of characters being stuck in a confined place. Featuring an array of special effects, supervised by Academy-Award winner Phil Tippett, “Virus” is a super-charged combination of action, suspense and spectacular visual effects.
