"It's probably impossible not to enjoy the movie. No director holds a candle to (Walter) Hill for sheer visceral expertise." – Film Comment

Amid a brooding rock & roll landscape, the Bombers motorcycle gang, led by the vicious Raven Shaddock (Willem Dafoe, John Wick), kidnap diva Ellen Aim (Diane Lane, Man of Steel). Her hope for rescue lies with unlikely heroes: soldier of fortune Tom Cody (Michael Paré, Bad Moon) and his sidekick, the two-fisted beer-guzzling McCoy (Amy Madigan, The Dark Half). Joined by Ellen's manager, Billy Fish (Rick Moranis, Ghostbusters), the trio plunges headfirst into a world of rain-splattered streets, hot cars, and deadly assassins.

This cult favorite features a razor-sharp cast and original songs written by Jim Steinman, Stevie Nicks, Tom Petty and Ry Cooder and performed by The Blasters and The Fixx. Directed by cult filmmaker Walter Hill (The Warriors, Southern Comfort, 48 Hrs.), Streets of Fire is a rock & roll shotgun blast to the senses.

Why We Love It

“The 4.1 stereo mix is a clear improvement over the lossless 5.1 and 2.0 tracks…this is unquestionably the best overall release for Streets of Fire on high-def. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.” – Dr. Stephen Larson, Blu-ray.com

“This is a fantastic looking steelbook for us collectors and also happens to have a brand new 4.1 audio mix for the original track purists… All in all, this is a fantastic release, and a wildly fun movie to boot.” – Michael Scott, AV Nirvana
