Blade Runner is based on the novel “Do androids dream of electric sheep?” by science fiction master Philip K. Dick. It stars Harrison Ford as Rick Deckard, a onetime “blade runner” (or sanctioned assassin). Blade Runner begins with the cynical, world-weary Deckard being called out of retirement to stop four “replicants” – genetically altered humans with superior stenght and intellects who are used as slave labor on “Off-world” colonies. These homicidal androids have returned to Earth for a murderous killing spree; their leader is Roy Batty, a dangerous “combat model” whose ultimate target is Eldon Tyrell, owner of the same corporation that created Roy.
