Fun City Editions is a new boutique IabeI focused on creating deIuxe home video editions of maverick repertory cinema that can best be described as works that exist "outside of their time."
Johnny (Vincent Spano, Baby lt's You and Over the Edge) controls the drug trade in New York's rough Alphabet City neighborhood - as Iong as his mob bosses Iet him. But, when he refuses to foIIow orders to torch the tenement building he grew up in, Johnny puts himself and his Ioved ones in their unforgiving crosshairs. No Wave filmmaker Amos Poe's (The Blank Generation and Subway Riders) neo-noir cuIt favorite oozes '80s neon-lit, punk-tinged styIe.
The innovative and vividly colorfuI visuals spring from the lens of cinematographer Oliver Wood (TV's Miami Vice, The Honeymoon Killers and Face/Off). Chic co-founder and dance music Iegend Nile Rodgers' supremeIy catchy synth-pop score propeIs the action. The cast of rising and veteran taIents incIudes Kate Vernon (Pretty in Pink), Jami Gertz (Less Than Zero and The Lost Boys), MichaeI WinsIow (the Police Academy series), Kenny Marino (Prince of the City and Death Wish 3) and Zohra Lampert (Let's Scare Jessica to Death and Splendor in the Grass).
Restored and availabIe on BIu-ray for the first time, Alphabet City is an evocative cinematic snapshot of a New York City that has long since vanished.
