Title: Ford Fairlane (!)
Post by: Weak2ndAct on September 18, 2003, 07:31:15 PM
Well, here comes another case of me horribly shaming... myself.  From www.dvdfile.com:

Debuting on December 16th is the recent indie horror hit Dog Soldiers and the catalog faves The Adventures of Ford Fairlane, Hard Cash, The Pick-Up Artist, Derailed, Greenmail, The Terrorists, Only the Strong and The Circuit. All are priced at a super-low $9.95, and include anamorphic widescreen transfers but, predictably, no extras.

I know we've all got good taste and stuff here, but please tell me I'm not the only one who's got a guilty-pleasure-thang goin' on for Renny Harlin's bomb starring the Diceman?  I used to own the laserdisc, happy to finally see it coming to dvd-- and cheap!

My best friend and I used to watch this on the daily back in elementary school. We rented it and kept it out for a month or so.

Wayne Newton is the greatest bad guy of....well of that film.

Defying the laws of nature and reason, the dvd will actually have extra stuff too:
- Commentary by Renny Harlin
- "Cradle of Love" music video (directed by Mr. Fincher I believe)
- Making-Of
- Trailer
This is the guiltiest pleasure of all time.
