A top-secret government security team moves in with an army of vicious decontamination workers to seal off the valley, forcing Larry and Carmel to attempt a daring high-speed escape......But, the question growing more urgent by the minute is - can the radioactive waste be contained? directed by: Ian Barrystarring: Arna-Maria Winchester; Hugh Keays-Byrne; Ralph Cotterill; Ross Thompson; Steve Bisley; Mel Gibson1980 / 92 min / 1.85:1 / English DTS-HD MA 2.0 Additional info: Region Free Blu-ray Extended NOT QUITE HOLLYWOOD interviews with cast members Steve Bisley, Arna-Marie Winchester, Director Ian Barry and Associate Producer Ross Matthews Thrills & Nuclear Spills featurette The Sparks Obituary featurette Deleted and Extended Scenes The Man at the Edge of the Freeway: Early Cut Theatrical Trailer TV Spot VHS Trailer Image Gallery Booklet with new writing by film critic Alexandra Heller-Nicholas English SDH subtitles
