RELEASE DATE: June 29, 2021
On June 29, 2021, Fun City Editions will launch the release of their new label with a Blu-ray release of Norbert Meisel’s Walking the Edge, a 1985 crime thriller starring Robert Forster (Vigilante, Jackie Brown, Delta Force), Nancy Kwan (Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story, The Wrecking Crew) – and featuring a soundtrack by Jay Chattaway (Maniac Cop 2, Invasion U.S.A.).
Jason Walk (Forster) is a part-time cabbie and small-time numbers runner on the seedy fringes of Hollywood. But when he accidentally helps a woman (Kwan) kill the drug dealers who murdered her son, he finds himself hunted through a deadly underworld of pimps, players and sadistic killers. As the violence hits closer, Jason hits back with a plan that puts him far out of his league and dangerously close to the edge.
