Rambo: First Blood (Dir. Ted Kotcheff, 1982): He never fought a battle he couldn't win - except the conflict raging within his soul. Academy Award-nominee Sylvester Stallone stars as war hero John Rambo. An ex-Green Beret haunted by memories of Vietnam, he was once the perfect killing machine. Now he's searching for peace, but finds instead an over-zealous, small-town sheriff who's spoiling for a fight. All hell breaks loose when an unjustly imprisoned Rambo escapes and becomes the target of a massive manhunt. Now he must use his cunning, combat skills, and weapons training to stay alive and outwit his pursuers. Co-starring Brian Dennehy and Richard Crenna, First Blood is an explosive action-thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the final, powerful frame. This pulse-pounding saga has been digitally remastered and contains an exciting featurette, First Blood: A Look Back.

Rambo: First Blood Part II (Dir. George P. Cosmatos, 1985): He's back! Superstar Sylvester Stallone is John Rambo, the ultimate action hero, in this explosive Oscar-nominated sequel to First Blood that boasts a riveting screenplay by Stallone and James Cameron (Titanic). Although the Vietnam War is officially over, Rambo remains the perfect fighting machine. But his survival skills are tested with a vengeance on a top-secret mission that takes him back to the jungles of Vietnam in search of American POW's. For when Rambo is double-crossed, this "expendable" hero, armed with just his bow, arrows and knife, must defeat savage enemies equipped with deadly firepower. Co-starring Richard Crenna and Charles Napier, Rambo: First Blood Part II is a must for every action-adventure fan! This adrenaline-charged tale has been digitally remastered and contains exciting, behind-the-scenes footage in the newly produced documentary An American Hero's Journey.

Rambo III (Dir. Peter MacDonald, 1988): The battle rages on as superstar Sylvester Stallone detonates the third and most explosive blast in the action-packed Rambo trilogy. Combat has taken its toll on John Rambo (Stallone), but he has finally begun to find inner peace inside a monastery - until his friend and mentor Col. Sam Trautman (Richard Crenna) shows up to ask for his help on a top-secret mission to Afghanistan. A war-weary Rambo declines, but when Trautman is captured, Rambo erupts into a one-man firestorm to rescue his former commanding officer and deciminate the enemy. It's an intense, pulse-pounding adventure that boasts unrelenting action and suspense from start to finish! Digitally remastered, Rambo III contains an exciting featurette, Rambo III: Full Circle.
