Written by novelist\/playwright Barry Hines (KES) and directed by BAFTA winner Mick Jackson, the film depicted the effects of a thermonuclear attack on the working-class city of Sheffield. Four months later, the film was shown on American cable TV. In both countries, the graphic horrors of detonation, societal collapse and nuclear winter were indelibly seared into tens of millions of homes. Over four decades it has remained \"brilliant\" (The Guardian), \"unsensationally grim\" (CineSavant) and \"piss yourself terrifying\" (The A.V. Club). For the first time ever, THREADS is now scanned in 4K from the original 16mm A\/B rolls with 7 hours of Special Features produced by Severin Films. This collection also includes a Bonus Disc of Craig Ian Mann \u0026amp; Robert Nevitt's new documentary SURVIVORS: THE SPECTRE OF THREADS that explores the untold stories of the film's impact on the people of Sheffield and throughout UK culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommentary With Director Mick Jackson Moderated By Film Writer Kier-La Janisse And Severin Films' David Gregory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommentary With Actress Karen Meagher And Television Historian Simon Farquhar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuditioning For The Apocalypse - Interview With Karen Meagher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShooting The Annihilation - Interview With Director Of Photography Andrew Dunn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDestruction Designer - Interview With Production Designer Christopher Robilliard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterview With Film Writer Stephen Thrower\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSURVIVORS: THE SPECTRE OF THREADS - Feature Documentary On The Production Of THREADS And Its Effect On The People Of Sheffield\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImmediate And Real - Interview With Julie McDowall, Author Of Attack Warning Red!
