Highway to Hell (LE) - PRE-ORDER-20-APRIL-26

When Charlie (Chad Lowe, Apprentice to Murder) and Rachel (Kristy Swanson, Buffy the Vampire Slayer) decide to elope to Las Vegas, their decision to take a desert shortcut via an abandoned Nevada backroad proves to be a fateful one: they are ambushed by the Hellcop (C. J. Graham, Friday the 13th), who abducts Rachel on behalf of Satan, snatching her through a portal to hell with the intention of making her the bride of the Satan himself. In hot pursuit via a supernatural car from a local gas station attendant (Richard Farnsworth, The Straight Story), Charlie must dodge demons while keeping Rachel and the Hellcop in his sights in order to rescue his kidnapped fiance and battle his way out of Hell!

A wild and witty fusion of Highway ‘66 iconography, pop-culture Satanism and the Odyssey, Highway to Hell was written by Brian Helgeland (L.A. Confidential) and directed by Ate De Jong (Drop Dead Fred). With fantastically creative uses of claymation and visual effects from supervisor Steve Johnson (Species) and Randall William Cook (Lord of the Rings), and a stacked supporting cast (including cameos from Ben Stiller, Jerry Stiller, rocker Lita Ford and Gilbert Gottfried as Hitler), Highway to Hell is a deliriously entertaining, nitro-boosted slice of pure 90s excess. Long languishing in cult obscurity, Transmission presents this film on Blu-ray for the first time in the UK.
