THE OFFICIAL WORLDWIDE HOME VIDEO PREMIERE INCLUDES 2 VERSIONS & 3 HOURS OF SPECIAL FEATURES In 1989, UCLA film students Russell Bates and Matt McDowell borrowed a 16mm camera, maxed out their credit cards and made a punk rock road movie about love, death, jerky, kidnapped newlyweds, 24-hour minimarts and a magical brainstem that promises immortality, featuring appearances by L.A. music scene icons that include Redd Kross, Milo Aukerman of Descendents and Peter Case of The Plimsouls with soundtrack vocals by Bob Forrest of Thelonious Monster. But when the finished film was unable to find theatrical distribution, it instead became an underground bootleg legend. Now after nearly four decades, this “offbeat saga of America wrapped in a Big Mac carton” (Daily Bruin) has been scanned in 2K from the original negative and is presented in both its Original Version and Producer’s Cut with 3 hours of all-new Special Features.  Special Features: Disc 1: Blu-ray (Original Version + Special Features): Audio Commentary With Filmmakers Russell Bates And Matt McDowell A World Of Convenience – Interview With Russell Bates And Matt McDowell I Only Drink Diet Item – Interview With Actress Lisa Jane Todd You Having Fun, Bruce? – Interview With Actor Rick Paxson Thank You, Goodnight – Interview With Musician/Actor Robert Hecker Gridley Plays Itself – Locations Tour "In The Country" By Divine Weeks – Music Video Directed By Russell Bates Trailer Disc 2: Blu-ray (Producer's Cut + Special Feature): Introduction By Filmmaker Matt McDowell Specs: Aspect Ratio: 1.33:1 Runtime: Original Version: 112 mins, Producer's Cut: 80 mins Audio: English Stereo Closed Captions Region: A/B/C
