New on Blu-ray: THE MUSIC MACHINE (1979) Starring Gerry Sundquist, Patti Boulaye & Clarke Peters

BUY FROM AMAZON

Product Description: Immediately after SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER swept the world, the 'discosploitation' genre was born. And in the UK's first polyester imitator, director Ian Sharp (THE FINAL OPTION) crafts a gritty time capsule of late '70s London in which an unemployed bloke (Gerry Sundquist of DON'T OPEN TILL CHRISTMAS) tries to win the big dance competition at Camden Town's iconic club, The Music Machine. British-Nigerian singer Patti Boulaye, Clarke Peters (The Wire), Ferdy Mayne (THE FEARLES VAMPIRE KILLERS) and Academy Award® winner Brenda Fricker (MY LEFT FOOT) co-star in this "oddly likeable" (The Observer) discomania melodrama written by James Kenelm Clarke (HOUSE ON STRAW HILL) and produced by Brian Smedley-Aston (VAMPYRES) with cinematography by Phil Méheux (CASINO ROYALE), now scanned in 4K from a combination of the CRI and original camera negative for the first time ever.
