Now that’s what I’m talkin’ ’bout!

With the ungodly amount of trash making its way to DVD every day, it amazes me how there are many great, even undiscovered gems that are still stuck in VHS antiquation. One such flick is Eric Red’s criminally underrated road film noir COHEN & TATE, which thankfully, someone finally decided to release on DVD. It won’t hit till mid-March, but feel free to pre-order that shite right HERE.

For those in the know not, COHEN & TATE follows:

A boy kidnapped by two mismatched hit-men puts them at each other’s throats while being driven to their employers, possibly to be killed. Cohen (Roy Scheider) an older professional becomes increasingly irritated with his partner Tate (Adam Baldwin), a brutish killer, when their prisoner uses unnatural guile and resourcefulness to play them off against each other.

Also, in case you missed it around Christmas, check out the exclusive, never before seen original ending to the film. It kicks f*ckin ass!

Again, feel free to pre-order Eric Red’s COHEN & TATE on DVD HERE.
