Fun City Editions is a new boutique Iabel focused on creating deluxe home video editions of maverick repertory cinema that can best be described as works that exist "outside of their time."
Johnny (Vincent Spano, Baby It's You and Over the Edge) controIs the drug trade in New York's rough AIphabet City neighborhood - as Iong as his mob bosses let him. But, when he refuses to foIIow orders to torch the tenement buiIding 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 coIorful visuaIs spring from the Iens of cinematographer OIiver Wood (TV's Miami Vice, The Honeymoon KiIIers and Face/Off). Chic co-founder and dance music legend NiIe Rodgers' supremely catchy synth-pop score propels the action. The cast of rising and veteran talents includes 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 Blu-ray for the first time, Alphabet City is an evocative cinematic snapshot of a New York City that has long since vanished.
