Description

In 1979, fresh from directing bare knuckle boxing movie Hard Times and supercool crime thriller The Driver, Walter Hill delivered his third stone cold classic in a row: The Warriors, a slam-bang, visually kinetic action movie that mixed a heightened comic-book sensibility with a timeless tale from ancient Greece and set them loose in the streets of modern America. In New York the gangs outnumber the cops by 5-1. Together, they could rule the city. Gang-leader Cyrus has a dream to do just that and calls a summit. The gangs of New York gather in their thousands, Cyrus takes the stage. From somewhere in the crowd a shot rings out and Cyrus falls down dead. In the chaos that follows, a small gang from Coney Island – the Warriors – are blamed. Now everyone is out to get them. On foot, in enemy territory, can they make it through the night to get back across the city to the safety of home turf? For all you boppers out there, for all you street people with an ear for the action… the iconic cult classic is back in a brand new 4K restoration approved by director Walter Hill. 2-DISC 4K ULTRA HD LIMITED EDITION CONTENTS Exclusive new 4K remasters of both the Theatrical Cut and the 2005 Alternate Version of the film sourced from the original camera negative, supervised by Arrow Films and approved by director Walter Hill 4K Ultra HD (2160p) Blu-ray presentation in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible) of both versions of the film Theatrical Cut presented in original aspect ratio of 1.85:1 for the first time on home video Original uncompressed mono, plus stereo 2.0 and Dolby Atmos audio options for the Theatrical Cut, plus stereo 2.0 and DTS-HD MA 5.1 for the 2005 Alternate Version Optional English Subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing 100-page collector’s book containing new writing by film critic Dennis Cozzalio plus select archival material Limited Edition packaging with reversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Laurie Greasley Double-sided fold-out poster with original and newly commissioned artwork by Laurie Greasley 6 postcard-sized artcards Gang logo stickers DISC 1: THEATRICAL CUT (4K ULTRA HD BLU-RAY) New commentary by film critic Walter Chaw, author of A Walter Hill Film War Stories, a new interview with director Walter Hill New roundtable discussion in which filmmakers Josh Olson (A History of Violence), Lexi Alexander (Green Street), and Robert D.
