RUNAWAY TRAIN- DUAL FORMAT DISCUSSION THREAD
 

Runaway Train Dual Format Blu-ray & DVD

DESPERATE AND DETERMINED TO SURVIVE

Two convicts break out of Stonehaven Prison in the dead of winter, boarding a freight train with the intention of getting as far away as possible before their notoriously sadistic warden finds out. But the brakes fail and the driver has a heart attack, sending hundreds of tons of metal hurtling through the snowy Alaskan wastes at terrifying and unstoppable speed.

Based on a script by Akira Kurosawa (Seven Samurai), with hardboiled prison slang added by real-life ex-con Edward Bunker (Mr Blue in Reservoir Dogs), this riveting thriller also boasts Oscar-nominated performances from Jon Voight and Eric Roberts – with Voight playing spectacularly against type as a criminal so vicious that he served much of his sentence welded into his cell.

Combining electrifying action with constant psychological tension (the only surviving member of the train crew is a young, inexperienced woman), Runaway Train is one of cinema's great thrill-rides.

I knew there was a 2K transfer of this made, just not sure who was going to release it.

Nice surprise it's from Arrow, looks good!

Now all I'm waiting for is to see who's releasing River's Edge, which also got a 2K

Will this be uncut! Quite hard film to find uncut on dvd if i remember correctly!
