Made by various artists this CD has a track for each of the chapters in the book. Some of the twenty five tracks are very much rooted in the curretn trends of electronic music in Europe. Others are acoustic numbers. Overall this is a unique conceptual album. Some of the tracks are a bit short to read the chapers by. If you have a CD player with a track repeat you will find that reading along with the book will be a more enjoyable experience. Besides the work from Oberst Gregor and Ingo Anhenn this project also includes an exclusive eight minutes long ambient finale by overseas master of electronic beauty Richard Bone! Well worth adding to your collection. You can order your copy directly from Discos Veveos. So order yours today then dig out a well read copy of the original Nolan/Johnson novel and enjoy it in a whole new way.

What will life be like... New 8-15-00 Another of the promotional items designed to promote the film was this double folded brochure. The brochure is reporduced here for your enjoyment. The narative in the brochure is especialy interesting as it does not seem quite sure where it is leading to. The picture of the inside and the back are larger so the text can be readable. Follow the links below to start exploring this item. Cover, Inside1, Inside 2, Back

Yet another version of the DVD has been released. This version features both a widescreen version of the movie and a pan and scan version. It comes in a white cardboard case instead of a durrable plastic case and features poster art on the front. This version has also been replaced by a similar looking box with the WB logo on it. This version is two sided and has the pan and scan on one side and the widescreen on the other. It apears to be a different transfer for the pan and scan of a lesser quality. More scratches and the like. This makes three DVD versions ot collect.
Well there is also a Japanese version and a European verison now.
This new version features a running commentary by the
director and Michael York on a separate audio track. It is very
similar to the deluxe laserdisk version which came out in the fall of
1987. It has the 20 minute 'making of' featurette as well. It also
includes some rather nifty jacket art and an 8 page booklet packed
with tidbits about the production of the movie. Also included are
secondary audio tracks of the director, cinematographer, and Michael
York. This booklet is in full color and features some nice design
work. For more info on the DVD click
here.
Now becoming collectable!
This new version features a brand new letter box transfer and
running commentary by the director and Michael York on a separate
audio track. This set had the 20 minute featurette on the making of
Logan's Run and segments from a second featurette produced the same
yeard dealing with current productions at MGM that same year. Photos
of deleted scenes are also included along with other production
information. The video suplement of the American Cinematographer
issue was abismal, but there were some interesting new pictures.
There was also a fashon parade at MGM showing off the costumes of the
23rd centurey including a proto-type sandman outfit which was quite
different from the one used in the movie. Some segments show sets
(including the New You Shop) being constructed
VHS and Beta
There were several releases of Logan's Run on video over the years.

The ealy1980's saw Logan's Run running quite a bit on HBO. Shortly after that the virst videotapes came out. They were in these shiny silver presentation boxes which made them more like a book to put on your bookshelf than a box containing a video casette. These early versions came in both VHS and Beta. |

There was also one RCA 'needle based' version of the move released in 1985 with a dark blue plastic case.
MGM/UA (CLV stereo pan and scan)
?? ???? Turner/MGM (CLV stereo Letterbox ) White cover Included 1 theatrical trailer
Oct 1997 (CAV THX Letterbox) Black cover Director/York commentary 2 featurettes, trailers, etc. many things not on any other version. Articles stills and the like. This laserdisc ahs a dark cover instead of a white one. If you are looking for the more interesting bunch of extra bits this is the laserdisc to get!
October 1998 (DVD Leterbox) Dark Psastic case Director/York commentary 1 featurette, 1 trailer. (Hmm bought the DVD then had to go aout and get a player!)
2000 (DVD Letterbox and Pan and Scan) White cardboard box Was this disc one sided? Director/York commentary 1 featurette, 1 trailer (According to people who wrote in this version is a one sided disc.) I do not have a copy of this DVD.
Summer 2001 (DVD letterbox and Pan and Scan) White cardboard box WB logo Director/York commentary 1 featurette, 1 trailer Pan and Scan version appears to be a different transfer. perhaps form an earlier laserdisc transfer? Really nice sound setup!
Someone has bothered to take the time to put up on the Web the
Screenplay By David Zelag Goodman ( Revised : April 30, 1975 version)
of the movie Logan's Run. This text is far and away different from
the movie version that was filmed shortly thereafter. Unfortunately
all the things they cut out would have helped to improve the movie.
Also included is a page from an older draft that somehow found its
way into the final draft. It offers some insight on how the film's
climax was shortened.

A newer version of the Cd is currently in stores (spring 2001) on the same CD as the Coma soundtrack. look for it at your local stores and on e-bay!
Hey... the soundtrack came out a couple of years ago on CD. For some reason I never botherd to mention this on the page before.
It came out on the Bay Cities label (BCD 3024 (A22722) DIDP 077068) This is through Sony Music Special Products (C) by Sony Products/Manufactured by Columbia Records. not curent date is on the CD, but I think this was about 2 years ago.
It contains the exact same tracks as the record release. The sound quality is far superior to that of most scratched vinyl copies lying around. In fact some subtle parts of the music I never noticed before now emerge quite clearly. Whoever re-mixed it really loved the soundtrack. The case design is very similar to the record as well. It has the movie poster art on the front surrounded by a light blue border.It adds new liner notes by Bruce Eder, who mostly trashes the movie, but loved the soundtrack.

Before being on CD it was out as an LP and a cassette tape in a nifty hard plastic container with the poster art on it. The tape was white with a black label on one side and black with a white label on the other side. The LP was very similar to the CD release as it has a blue border around the outside. Heck it was the 70's! there was even a version of 8 track tape! The soundtrack was re-released in 2000 on a CD with the wonderful Jerry Goldsmith soundtrack for Coma. The cover was so awful I am not putting it here. |

7-9-00 Logan Runs Again... or did he? Rockin' out with Logan's Sanctuary One of the most interesting things I have come across in a long time is this CD by Roger Joseph Manning Jr. and Brian Reitzell called Logan's Sanctuary Its is a soundtrack for a never produced sequel to the movie Logan's Run. It has the flavor and consistency of late 70's synthesized music. It most reminds me of the first season record for Space 1999. It also features a vocal track on track #2 Search For Tomorrow that borders on the insanity of rock songs in 70's movie like Barberella and the theme for Buck Rogers or maybe even a James Bond theme. It has the feel of a soundtrack made in late 1977 or maybe 1978. From the haunting themes in some of the songs that seem to linger in my stereo long after the track has ended. Vintage instruments give it a 'special sound' rarely heard on modern recordings. Even Disky was astounded by the CD insert and its various images of a never made movie. Frankly I am wondering if they have sent a copy to the makers of the new Logan's Run movie yet. A retro soundtrack might give a unique feel to the new movie. Evidently Mr. Nolan did not get a share of the proceeds (or the debt) form this audio CD. |

Friday 11/1/96 on TNT's MonsterVision Joe Bob, the resident film
critic from Grapevine TX. will be slicing and dicing the television
pilot for Logan's Run! Well worth watching for JoeBob's comments
alone.
Logan's Run (1977) at 4:30 a.m. Eastern Friday 11/1/96
You thought the film version was bad?
Wait till you see the original television pilot starring Gregory
Harrison and Heather Menzies! Jaw-dropping costumes! Unbelievable
sets! Who did their hair?
Well as it turned out.. "...everything was running about 3 hours late
and they were doing a live shoot following some big event and... they
all... decided to just go home" so Joe Bob never got to tear the
pilot apart.
