From producer/director Sean S. Cunningham, co-creator of the Friday the 13th franchise, comes his underwater creature feature, DEEPSTAR SIX - making its UK UHD debut on June 8 as part of STUDIOCANAL’s Cult Classics range, with a fantastic 4K restoration, stunning artwork, a treasure trove of extras including three audio commentaries, and four art cards. The film is also released on Blu-ray and Digital.

 

Starring Greg Evigan (TekWar), Nancy Everhard (The Punisher), Miguel Ferrer (Robocop) and featuring stuntwork by Jason Vohorees himself, Kane Hodder, DEEPSTAR SIX features another memorably eerie score by Harry Manfredini (Friday the 13th), and out of this world creature effects by Chris Walas (Oscar-winner for 1987’s The Fly).

Called “wildly entertaining” by Nerdly, DEEPSTAR SIX is packed with action, explosions, outrageous practical effects, a sterling B-movie cast, and lots and lots of water, it’s Alien underwater, with a dash of The Abyss, brought to you with horror master Cunningham’s tense and terrifying know-how, making it an absolute must for genre fans.

 

SYNOPSIS:  When the crew of an experimental underwater nuclear base disturbs a huge cavern beneath their site, they accidentally unleash the giant prehistoric monster lurking within…

 

DEEPSTAR SIX is available to buy on 4K UHD, Blu-ray and Digital from 8th June 2026 and available to pre-order on 4K and Blu-ray.
