The film was given a limited release theatrically by New World Pictures beginning in August 1984.
Arrow (through their sublicensing deal with Lakeshore Entertainment) will release the film on Blu-ray for the first time in the US on November 16th, 2016 (coincidentally, the same day Lionsgate's Blu-ray release of C.H.U.D. II: Bud the Chud will be available).
