A BOY AND HIS DOG (1975)

Post-apocalyptic sci-fi starring Don Johnson releasing on UK Blu-ray for the first time

Making its UK Blu-ray debut in October, A BOY AND HIS DOG (1975): a dark and often wickedly funny trip through a post-apocalyptic world, where the friendship between a boy and his dog is the only currency that matters.

World War IV lasted five days. The earth ravaged, survivors struggle to find food, shelter, and companionship in the post-atomic wasteland. This celebrated sci-fi tale follows a young man, Vic (Don Johnson), and his sardonic and telepathic dog, Blood, as they wander in search of food and women. They find the suspiciously eager Quilla June (Susanne Benton), who lures 
Vic into a surreal city deep beneath the earth’s surface. What’s waiting for him there is certainly not what he wanted.

Special Features
• Newly Restored High-Definition Transfer
• In Conversation: Harlan Ellison & L.Q. Jones
• Commentary by Director L.Q. Jones, John Arthur Morrill, and Charles Champlin
• English subtitles
