This 1977 beauty from Wes Craven is getting the 4K restoration treatment,for all those lucky to have a 4K television set,another one of the U.K. Banned film list,that was available on DVD since the early 2000's only on DVD originally from Anchor Bay,a vanilla release,with at least this great film is getting the hi-def version it deserves. On route to Los Angeles the Carter family's camper home breaks down in the middle of nowhere,caught in the heat of the desert,and fighting against an onslaught of blood thirsty cannibals,who want to devour them,this is another classic of our generation in horror, with the title "The Lucky ones die first" this film even though a little dated still does shock,with a pre Nightmare On Elm Street, it was Wes Craven firing on all cylinders.
