Fear City

101 Films presents Abel Ferrara's Fear City (1984), released on Blu-Ray in the UK for the first time. Taking place in Ferrara's trademark nightmarish vision of New York City, Fear City delves into the seedy underbelly of the city in the 80s. Filmed on location in the sleazy dive bars and back alleys of Times Square, this thrilling, erotic neo-noir is a tale of a brutal killer targeting the city's strippers and the former boxer and cop out to catch them.There's a psychopath on the loose in Manhattan who is stalking and mutilating beautiful strippers employed by booking agents Matt Rossi (Tom Berenger - Platoon, Inception) and Nicky Parzeno (Jack Scalia). But when the madman targets Matt's ex-girlfriend, Loretta (Melanie Griffith - Something Wild), he must confront his own violent past to stop the sadist.Uncut version of Fear City (97 Minutes)Commentary with film critic Kevin LyonsExtended trailerLimited edition booklet: Includes ‘Seeing Red: A Neo-Noir Guide’ by Rich Johnson and ‘Returning to Fear City by Brad Stevens
