Paramount Home Entertainment has announced the Blu-ray release of the Farrelly brothers'
Kingpin, starring Woody Harrelson, Randy Quaid, Bill Murray, Vanessa Angel and Chris Elliott. The 1996 bowling comedy makes its North American Blu-ray debut on September 9th.
Synopsis: Harrelson is Roy Munson, a pro bowler who seems destined for greatness, or as close to greatness as a bowler can get. But after a run-in with angry competitors, Roy finds himself sadder, wiser and minus one bowling hand. Years later, he meets the naïve Ishmael (Quaid), an Amish bowling whiz, and Claudia (Angel), a sexy vixen with brains. Together they set out for a million-dollar tournament in Reno. Will Roy and Ishmael win the big match and score fame and fortune? Or will all their hopes and dreams go barreling down the gutter?
The Blu-ray edition of
Kingpin features the film's PG-13 theatrical cut and R-rated extended version. Extras include:
- Commentary by Directors Peter And Bobby Farrelly
- Behind-the-Scenes Featurette
