Celebrating Thunderbirds 60th anniversary, this cinematic double-bill brings two of Thunderbirds’ best-loved adventures into an electrifying big screen experience – Trapped in the Sky and Terror in New York City, presented for the first time fully restored in 4K with a brand-new Dolby 5.1 surround mix. Trapped in the Sky - A criminal known only as the Hood places a bomb in the landing gear of a new supersonic airliner, Fireflash, hoping to draw out a newly created, privately funded emergency response team called International Rescue. Terror in New York City - After Thunderbird 2 is heavily damaged in a mistaken attack, it leaves the team seemingly without a swift means to transport any rescue gear to New York City to save a news crew trapped underneath the collapsed Empire State Building.
