Eddie Macon's Run Blu-ray

Kino Lorber have detailed their upcoming Blu-ray release of Jeff Kanew's Eddie Macon's Run (1983), starring Kirk Douglas, John Schneider, Lee Purcell, Lisa Dunsheath, and Leah Ayres. The release is scheduled to arrive on the market on January 19.

Description: Eddie Macon is running from a nightmare... running to a dream... running for his life and his time is running out. He's escaped a Texas prison for the second time (risking life imprisonment if caught) to make it back to his wife and son. Relentlessly pursued by ruthless truant officer, Carl Marzack, who feels he must prove he can still 'get his man' by returning Macon to jail at any cost. The hunt is on in this Southern-fried thrill ride that climaxes in an edge-of-your-seat chase through the streets of Texas. Directed by Jeff Kanew (Tough Guys), the film packs a strong supporting cast, including Lee Purcell (Mr. Majestyk) and John Goodman (Sea of Love) in his theatrical debut.
