Twin brothers Oxide and Danny Pang make their first feature together with this raw attack on the senses. BANGKOK DANGEROUS is like Pop Rocks candy: it leaves a funny taste in your mouth and the stinging pop is strangely alluring. It's a unique mixture of kinetic editing, textured visual sensuality, and aural assault. It's so incredibly gory and fantastic it literally vibrates.Kong (Pawalit Mongkolpisit) is a killer. Because he is deaf and mute, he isn't scared of the sound of gunfire. Working as a professional hit man, he stalks the seedy streets of Bangkok carrying out orders or drinking at the nightclub where the boss's moll, Aom (Pisek Intrakanchit), moonlights as a stripper. Joe (Pisek Intrakanchit) is Kong's best friend (and Aom's ex), who retired from working as a hit man when his hand was injured in a shoot out. With nothing to do, Joe is always drunk and depressed. One day, Kong meets Fon (Premsinee Ratanasopha), a sweet innocent who works in a drugstore. He falls in love and begins to question the life he leads. But it happens too late. When Joe is murdered, Kong decides to seek redemption by turning against his crime bosses and assaulting the Thai underworld.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseSingle Side - Dual Layer

Television director/actor Clark Johnson makes an impressive feature-film debut with S.W.A.T. Inspired by the 1970s show of the same name, S.W.A.T. is set in modern day Los Angeles. Recently demoted officer Jim Street (Colin Farrell) gets a chance to redeem himself when aging veteran Hondo (Samuel L. Jackson) is put in control of a new team. Joining Jim are Deke Kay (LL Cool J), Michael Boxer (Brian Van Holt), T.J. McCabe (Josh Charles), and Chris Sanchez (Michelle Rodriguez), all outcasts in their own right. But after an intense training period, the team is ready to hit the streets. Their first big assignment involves one of the world's most dangerous criminals, Alex Montel (Olivier Martinez), who makes an on-camera declaration that he'll give $100 million to whoever breaks him out of jail. Pretty soon, everyone's trying to get a piece of the action, including Jim's former partner, Brian Gamble (Jeremy Renner), who uses his own S.W.A.T. team experience to plot the escape of a lifetime. It's up to Hondo and Jim to outsmart the bad guys and make sure that Alex is safely transported to a federal penitentiary. S.W.A.T. is an entertaining adventure made all the more engaging because of the way Johnson concerns himself equally with the quality of the film's drama and its action.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CasePan& Scan - 1.33Audio: Dolby Digital 5.1 - English Dolby Digital 5.1 - FrenchAdditional Release Material: Audio Commentaries - 1.

After a rapid-fire montage of two groups of gangsters, one Japanese, the other ethnic Chinese, killing each other and everybody else on screen, DEAD OR ALIVE's story begins when a police officer announces, Round up everybody who looks (suspicious), even if they aren't Chinese. The Chinese have been living in Japan for centuries, but have never been accepted or integrated into Japanese society. This larger conflict underlies the blood and gore of the two gangs vying to make a big drug purchase from a mainland Chinese gang. When Jojima (Show Aikawa) an otherwise honest cop, needs money for an operation for his daughter, he gets a loan from the head of the Japanese gang, but when his partner kills the brother of the leader of the Chinese mafia, Ryuichi (Riki Rakeuchi), a blood feud begins between the two men.DEAD OR ALIVE's fast-paced cinematic presentation, black humor, tongue-in-cheek satire, and misogynist sadism set it apart from similar films by Takeshi Kitano. Director Takashi Miike's earlier film, AUDITION, is known for its stunning ending, but here he builds up to a parody of the big showdown that is so hysterically comic that, borrowing from Monty Python and DR. STRANGELOVE, it reaches absolutely apocalyptic proportions.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseAnamorphic Widescreen - 1.85Additional Release Material: Interview - 1.
