趣闻

Cyberjack is a 1995 Canadian–Japanese science-fiction action film directed by Robert Lee, starring Michael Dudikoff, Brion James and Suki Kaiser. Dudikoff stars as a traumatized cop turned janitor trying to stop a violent anarchist terrorist from injecting himself with a revolutionary techno-organic virus, which would make him all-powerful. For its North American video release, the film was retitled Virtual Assassin.

Production

Cyberjack was the first production of Everest Entertainment, a new company co-founded by Crackerjack producer John A. Curtis after his exit from North American Releasing, and transposed the same formula to a futuristic setting. Christian Bruyere, until then best known for subsidized, human interest movies, provided production services via his Catalyst Films International outfit.

Local press listed filming starting on August 29, 1994. The film was shot in Vancouver, British Columbia, and the city's Harbor Centre district was enhanced with CGI to give it the requisite cyberpunk look. It features a "SkyBus", a sci-fi reimagining of the city's iconic SeaBus water taxis. Like several locally filmed projects, the film's weaponry reused the futuristic Beretta design created by Syd Mead for the B.C.-shot Timecop.

The visual effects were done by British company The Magic Camera. CGI supervisor Alan Marques went through three different software suites, including market leader Wavefront, whose glossy images did not mesh with the real world footage. Eventually, it was decided to use LightWave 3D, a program for the Amiga. The lead computer was an Amiga 4000/040 with a Warp Engine accelerator card and 146 megabytes of RAM.

The SkyBus consisted of 15,000 polygons and 46 light sources. Its integration into the miniature streets during the remote hijack scene took one month to process. Some objects were rendered at half resolution and then blown up to 2048p, which gave them a softer, more film-like look. The team continued using the Amiga for its next film project, the James Bond film GoldenEye.
