New on Blu-ray: HELL'S HIGHWAY - THE TRUE STORY OF HIGHWAY SAFETY FILMS (2003) - Documentary

BUY FROM AMAZON

Product Description: Critically-acclaimed upon its 2003 theatrical release, Hell’s Highway: The True Story of Highway Safety Films is a morbidly curious exploration of the shocking driver education films of yesteryear. Produced between 1959 and 1979 in Mansfield, Ohio, films such as Signal 30 encouraged safety by force-feeding high school kids color footage of careless driving’s dark consequences: blood-stained wreckage, injured bodies, fresh corpses. In the 1970s and ‘80s, these traumatic films disappeared from the American classroom and assumed an almost mythical status. Hell’s Highway unearths these artifacts of grim Americana and interviews the filmmakers responsible for this radical educational movement. This remastered edition includes three complete “blood-on-the-highway” films, newly restored from the original 16mm camera elements preserved in the Richard Prelinger Collection at the Library of Congress..

New on Blu-ray: BLACK EYE (1974) Starring Fred Williamson

BUY FROM AMAZON

Product Description: Since he gave up his police badge, Shep Stone's tried to make a go of it as a Private Investigator. A snoop job here, a shakedown there; work hasn't exactly poured into the rundown bar where he occupies a stool keeping office hours. But one night, Stone walks into his apartment -- and into a room where a murder victim is still warm .and the killer is lying in wait for Stone. Fred Williamson (From Dusk till Dawn) plays Stone, whose search for a murder weapon spins into a spider's web of suspense linking a religious cult, a porno ring, a missing person and a notorious drug underground. Labeled The Hammer because of his gridiron style, the former pro-football star attacks the role of Stone with the same hard-hitting driving style. From a high-rent high-rise to a dilapidated amusement park, from alleyways to the beach, Stone sorts out clues, sidesteps increasing numbers of corpses and shows tough guys what tough is all about. He gets a couple of C-notes in advance for his trouble. He dishes out much more in excitement.
