Flipside 006: Man of Violence: Dual Format Edition RRP 19.99 
Walker, Peter
In a world of gangs and villains, one man - Moon - will stop at nothing to get the girl and take the spoils. Pete Walker's affectionate low-budget homage to the gangster thriller is packed with sights and sounds from a Britain about to swing out of the Sixties and into a somewhat less optimistic decade. It offers not only rare glimpses of a world gone by, but also some unexpected twists on generic convention. The cast includes Hammer girls Luan Peters (Lust for a Vampire, Twins of Evil) and Virginia Wetherell (Doctor Jekyll & Sister Hyde, Demons of the Mind).

Presented here in a stunning new High Definition transfer from the original negative, this release also includes Pete Walker's earlier thriller The Big Switch (aka Strip Poker).

Extras
* Both films newly transferred to High Definition from original negatives
* The Big Switch (aka Strip Poker) (1968, 65 mins): Pete Walker's pulp thriller which includes a climactic shoot-out in the snow on Brighton's now destroyed West Pier
* The Big Switch: Alternative export cut (1968, 77 mins)
* Original trailers for Man of Violence and The Big Switch
* Alternative 'Moon' title-card
* Extensive illustrated booklet featuring newly commissioned contributions from Pete Walker, novelist Cathi Unsworth, producer and critic David McGillivray, and film historian Julian Petley
* Dolby Digital mono audio (320 kbps)
