Scum 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray 88 Films UHD 1979 Alan Clarke Ray Winstone

Brutal British masterpiece restored in 4K and completely uncut!

Introducing 88 Films' 2-Disc UHD 4K (Region Free) + Blu-ray (Region B) release for 1979's Scum. Written by Roy Minton and directed by the legendary Alan Clarke (Elephant; The Firm), Scum is a stark study of institutional power and state-sanctioned violence that refuses to pull its punches. 88 Films are proud to present this merciless masterpiece of British film, restored in 4K and completely uncut.

Infamously brutal, utterly uncompromising; Scum still hits like a sock full of snooker balls. This is life in a young offenders institution – the inmates are savage, the officers are worse. A swaggering young Ray Winstone plays Carlin, the king of the wing; with no rehabilitation on offer, he may as well keep fighting to stay on top.
