Blu-ray


Road Games is an offbeat title and one that’s definitely not for everyone. The Hitchcock flair is certainly present, both in construction and realization, but also in its usage of black comedy. Though its considered one of the many titles that made Jamie Lee Curtis a “Scream Queen,” her appearance lasts no more than 25 minutes, leaving Keach to carry most of the screen time. (Okay, him and his dingo.) Its pace might be too glacial for some, and its odd tone may turn off those more used to traditional genre fare, but there’s something undeniably quirky about Road Games that makes it impulsively watchable. For the first high-def release of this title, Umbrella has set the bar extremely high. Fans of the film should import this sucker asap. http://www.cutprintfilm.com/blu/road-games-blu/
