SAM PECKINPAH’S MASTERPIECE RESTORED AND REMASTERED FOR BLU-RAY TO COINCIDE WITH 40TH ANNIVERSARY AND THEATRICAL RELEASE OF REMAKE.

Straw Dogs is tense from the off.

As soon as David and Amy arrive in town, old friends appear and introduce themselves. An old flame arrives and endears himself but, on shaky and unfamiliar ground, it’s obvious in this scene that David is nervous and unsure of how the land lies in his new environment.

Peckinpah sows the seeds for his bloody and brutal climax from the very beginning of the movie, showing his audience that from the start the rules have changed for Dustin Hoffman’s character.
