Lionsgate, under their excellent Vestron Video label, is putting out Blue Steel for the first time in the US on Blu-ray. The Kathryn Bigelow-directed film starring Jamie Lee Curtis arrives on Blu-ray on November 14th. The release features updated artwork and new special features. Here’s a synopsis for Blue Steel from Lionsgate.

Making its Blu-ray™ debut, this classic ’90s thriller directed by Kathryn Bigelow (Zero Dark Thirty) stars Jamie Lee Curtis as newly minted NYPD officer Megan Turner, who responds to a grocery store robbery – and kills the perpetrator – her first day on the job. But Megan’s uncorroborated story of the shooting gets her suspended from active duty when the stickup gun mysteriously vanishes. Enter a charming-but-disturbed commodities trader (Ron Silver), whose obsession with Megan threatens to destroy everything she holds dear, pushing her into a desperate fight to salvage her reputation… and save her own life.
