• Cruising Limited Edition 4K UHD | Blu Ray | (24/02/2025) from £24.55   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £N/A

  Legendary director William Friedkin brings together Al Pacino, the 70s New York gay scene and a searing punk-rock soundtrack in this one-of-a-kind serial killer thriller, finally restored to its long-unavailable original theatrical version in 4K. New York is caught in the grip of a sadistic serial killer who is preying on the patrons of the city's underground gay scene. Young rookie cop Steve Burns (Pacino) is tasked with infiltrating the S&M subculture to try and lure the killer out of the shadows... but as he immerses himself deeper and deeper into the underworld, Steve risks losing his own identity in the process. Taking the premise and title from reporter Gerald Walker's novel, Cruising was the subject of great controversy at the time of its release and remains a challenging and remarkable movie to this day, with Pacino's haunted lead performance as its magnetic centrepiece. With hours of brand-new bonus features, including never-before-seen material from the deepest recesses of the studio archives, you've never seen Cruising like this. 2-DISC 4K ULTRA HD BLU-RAY LIMITED EDITION CONTENTS ¢ Brand new 4K restoration from the original 35mm camera negative by Arrow Films ¢ 120-page perfect-bound collector's book featuring articles from The Village Voice and The New York Times, essays from the film's extras cast, an introduction from William Friedkin, and an archive interview with Al Pacino ¢ Reversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Sister Hyde DISC ONE - FEATURE & EXTRAS (4K ULTRA HD) ¢ 4K (2160p) Ultra HD Blu-ray presentation in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible) ¢ Original lossless English mono audio, 2.0 stereo, and 5.1 ¢ Optional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing ¢ Two archive audio commentaries by director William Friedkin, one solo and one moderated by critic and broadcaster Mark Kermode ¢ Brand new commentary featuring original musicians involved with the soundtrack ¢ I Want to Be the Curator, a brand-new interview with actress Karen Allen ¢ Deleted scenes and alternative footage ¢ On-set audio featuring the club scenes and protest coverage ¢ Censored material reels ¢ Theatrical trailer, teasers, and TV spots DISC TWO - EXTRAS (BLU-RAY) ¢ Walking the Line, a brand-new interview with actor, film consultant, and former police detective Randy Jurgensen ¢ Cut Offs, an interview with editor Bud S.

  In chronicling a multi-generational family business dealing illegal drugs and the efforts of the Baltimore police to curb their trade this series draws parallels between these organizations and the men and women on either side of the battle. Drawing similarities between those people who society champion as respectable and law-abiding and those dismissed as thugs this series sets out to change this viewpoint by showing how criminogenic and unrespectable the articulate political and respected can be especially in American political-economic life and how innocent and decent those from poor poverty-wracked slums can be. The distinctions between the corporate world and organised crime are shown to have very little relevance. Episodes Comprise: 1. More With Less 2. Unconfirmed Reports 3. Not For Attribution 4.

• The Vanishing | DVD | (25/08/2003) from £11.98   |  Saving you £-3.00 (N/A%)   |  RRP £5.99

  It's not unusual for Hollywood to remake European hits. What is unusual is the director of the original getting the chance to helm the new version with an American cast, which is what happened with this film based on an intensely creepy Dutch film of the same name (both directed by George Sluizer). Kiefer Sutherland and Sandra Bullock are on vacation when, while stopped at a crowded rest area, she disappears. He devotes the next several years to discovering what happened to her, ruining his life in the process. When he does get a clue, it leads him to Jeff Bridges, who plays a bizarre and highly organized individual whose motives are almost as strange as he is. Bridges is spooky, but Sluizer ultimately is undone by Hollywood's demand for a happy ending, which makes this film affecting but far less unsettling than the original. --Marshall Fine
