Roadgames [1981, Blu-ray]

Directed by Ozploitation veteran Richard Franklin, and written by Everett De Roche, Roadgamescomes to blu-ray sourced from a brand new 4K master, glisteningly beautiful cover art, and a whole host of new special features.

The Australian company Umbrella Entertainment has put together this release; another to add to their outstanding Australian cinema blu-ray releases.

The new features on the blu-disc include:

-Never before seen 1980 lecture on the making of Road Games from Richard Franklin, Co-Producer Barbi Taylor & Composer Brian May.
-1981 Interview with Richard Franklin
-2001 Audio Interview with Richard Franklin

The film was previously released through Umbrella on DVD in the early 2000’s, and a month before this blu-ray release was re-released on DVD with the new cover art.

Adored by filmmaker Quentin Tarantino, this 1981 Ozploitation classic deserves this long-awaited blu-ray treatment. I am excited to pick this up and check it out in glorious HD!
