Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas Limited Edition 4K Ultra HD

Considered unfilmable for decades, Hunter S. Thompson's literary landmark of psychedelic excess finally met its cinematic match in anarchic visionary director Terry Gilliam (Twelve Monkeys) and two no-holds-barred star performances by Johnny Depp and Benicio del Toro.Raoul Duke (Depp) and his volatile Samoan attorney Dr. Gonzo (del Toro) are en route to Las Vegas, ostensibly on a banal journalistic assignment, but the suitcase full of psychoactive narcotics in their possession tells another story. Beset by bats, horny lizards and runaway hotel carpet upon their arrival, the pair plunge deeper into the pharmaceutically enhanced neon underbelly of the City of Sin on a chemically charged savage journey to the heart of the American Dream.Flashback to Gilliam and Thompson's trip of a lifetime with this 4K restoration, accompanied by an outstanding selection of bonus material delving into the history of the film and the original book.4K restoration from the original negative approved by Terry Gilliam4K (2160p) UHD Blu-ray presentation in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible)Original 5.1 & 2.0 DTS-HD Master AudioOptional subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearingFeature commentary by Terry Gilliam, moderated by Phil StubbsSavage: Finding The American Nightmare, an appreciation by film historian Ian ChristieThe Gonzo Papers, an interview with producer Laila NabulsiGrim Memories & Bad Flashbacks, an interview with star Benicio del ToroIgnore This Terrible Drug: The Art and Style of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, a featurette including interviews with cinematographer Nicola Pecorini, production designer Alex McDowall, costume designer Julie Weiss and editor Lesley WalkerFour deleted scenes with optional commentary by Gilliam, including the excised prologue A Dress PatternSpotlight on Location, an original promotional featurette featuring interviews with Gilliam, Depp and del ToroBehind the scenes 'B-roll' footage and additional EPK interviews with Gilliam, Depp and del ToroTheatrical trailers and TV spotsExtensive image galleries, including original production designs, storyboards and production stillsReversible sleeve featuring two artwork choicesIllustrated collector's booklet featuring writing on the film by Roger Keen and original production notesLimited Edition slipcover featuring Ralph Steadman's classic illustration Bats Over Barstow
