‘Action cinema in its purest form’
-Time Out
Walter Hill’s action-packed eighties classic Streets Of Fire finally makes its Blu-ray bow with a brand new transfer and a wealth of special features from Second Sight Films.
This highly stylised rock and roll fable has gained a huge cult following since its original release in 1984 and with its back drop of rain drenched, neon-lit streets is one of the most visually iconic films of the decade. It features an all-star cast including Diane Lane (Man Of Steel, The Perfect Storm), Willem Defoe (Spider-Man, The English Patient), and Rick Moranis (Ghostbusters, Honey I Shrunk The Kids) and comes to Blu-ray for the first time with a stunning new transfer and featuring some fantastic bonus features on 18 November 2013.
Big time rock singer Ellen Aim (Lane) is playing a gig in her hometown when a local bike gang The Bombers, led by the menacing Raven (Defoe), storm the stage and kidnap her. Tom Cody (Micheal Paré – The Virgin Suicides, The Philadelphia Experiment), a tough ex-soldier and Ellen’s ex-boyfriend returns home to get her back and he’s ready to take on the whole gang.
With its outstanding soundtrack and fast-paced action, Streets of Fire is a stylish rock and roll hit.
