Rad(1986)

6.5/10

dir. Hal Needham

S-Tier

Vinegar Syndrome's 2020 Limited Edition is the only legit 4K of the 1986 BMX classic. The film's never been on Blu-ray cleanly thanks to music rights and rotating distributor purgatory, so the VS scan is the first time Cru Jones has looked anywhere near right at home. Pressing has been hard to track down at retail.
