Product description

Al Pacino is Cruising for a killer.

Legendary director William Friedkin brings together Al Pacino, the 70s New York gay scene and a searing punk-rock soundtrack in this one-of-a-kind serial killer thriller, finally restored to its long-unavailable original theatrical version in 4K.

New York is caught in the grip of a sadistic serial killer who is preying on the patrons of the city's underground gay scene. Young rookie cop Steve Burns (Pacino) is tasked with infiltrating the S&M subculture to try and lure the killer out of the shadows... but as he immerses himself deeper and deeper into the underworld, Steve risks losing his own identity in the process.

Taking the premise and title from reporter Gerald Walker's novel, Cruising was the subject of great controversy at the time of its release and remains a challenging and remarkable movie to this day, with Pacino's haunted lead performance as its magnetic centrepiece. With hours of brand-new bonus features, including never-before-seen material from the deepest recesses of the studio archives, you've never seen Cruising like this.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Hell bent for leather
    Reviewed in Canada on March 12, 2024

    Cruising is a dark detective thriller, not for the faint at heart. It's ambiguity is only exceeded by it's audacity. If you're not interested in the subculture of gay life in the leather bars of the gritty late 70's, this movie isn't for you. This movie is fascinating in it's detail about police procedures & the glorious night life in the leather bars, where men were free to follow their hot desires. Al Pacino gives a grounded performance as a man in over his head, losing his innocence & holding back his own animalistic rage. This film has a fantastic soundtrack that you'll wanna put on your chaps and boogie! This is film is the real Blue Oyster! Repeat viewings are highly recommended for this highly controversial gay classic!

    Reviewed in Canada on October 2, 2021

    This movie tells it like it is from a time when you did not get into trouble with the 'I'm offended' police. The plot is out there and bazar but it is one of Pacino's best movies I think. I wandered down into an area of San Francisco a few years back, walking down a street with the look of the scenes in the film with all it's characters. Felt way out of place and unsafe and looked like it to a taxi driver who motioned me over to get in his cab and took me to where the bars I was looking for were located.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Pretty risqué for 1980.
    Reviewed in Canada on October 7, 2014
    Verified Purchase
    I had heard lots about this movie, and was very interested in seeing it. Mainly for the disturbing content, and the fact that a young Al Pacino was smack dab in the middle of it. On a whole, I thought this movie was fairly boring. Lots of scenes of men walking down the street very fast. I understand that when this movie came out (no pun intended), it was way before the gay community was accepted as it is today. Especially gay leather bars. Pretty risqué content, for 1980. Nowadays, not so shocking. Except for one particular scene that made my eyes widen. I won't give anything away, but those who have seen it know what I'm talking about. All in all, I thought this movie was ok.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Integrale
    Reviewed in Italy on February 3, 2013
    Verified Purchase
    l'importante di questo film è avere questa versione finalmente integrale , senza risparmiare le scene "subliminali" di penetrazioni durante gli omicidi volute fortemente dal regista all'epoca della realizzazione e in questa versione sono presenti!
    L'audio italiano è mancante in molti punti del film perchè probabilmente non si è fatta attenzione a scegliere una banda sonora del doppiaggio italiano della versione integrale , che per esempio era presente nella vecchia versione VHS della General Video! Consiglio pertanto di inserire i sottotitoli in italiano, fortunatamente presenti, con l'audio originale.
    Manca una scena emblematica ad inizio film : il muro con i graffiti, ma è un particolare che può esser perdonato vista la stupenda qualità e soprattutto integralità del resto della pellicola. Da avere assolutamente!!!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Auf der Suche nach einem Freund für eine Nacht...
    Reviewed in Germany on December 9, 2012
    Verified Purchase
    In New York geht ein brutaler Serienmörder um. Eine Küstenpatrouille findet Leichenteile im Hafenbecken des Hudson River. Seine Opfer sucht sich der unbekannte Killer in der schwulen Sado-Maso Lederszene aus. Dabei weisen die Getöteten optisch Gemeinsamkeiten auf, was den Polizeichef Edelson (Paul Sorvino) veranlasst einen jungen unverbrauchten Cop, der optisch ins Beuteschema des Täters passt mit einem Spezialauftrag zu konfronitieren. Zuerst ist Sreve Burns (Al Pacino) gar nicht scharf auf den Undercover Auftrag in der Schwulenszene, da er auch seiner Freundin Nancy (Karen Allen) nichts verraten darf. Doch er nimmt an, denn es bietet sich bei Erfolg eine ungeahnte Karrieremöglichkeit bei der Kripo.
    Er bezieht mit neuer Identität ein Appartment, lernt dort den Nachbar Ted Bailey (Don Scardino) kennen, der einen eifersüchtigen Liebhaber hat und Nachts mischt er sich unter die Masse von Männern, die auf der Suche nach schnellem, hartem Sex sind.
    Dabei ist das Terrain für den heterosexuellen Cop einerseits neu, andererseits fasziniert ihn aber etwas an dieser betont pervers agierenden Subkultur. Bei einer Polizeiorgie wird er aus der Bar geschmissen, weil er sich nicht als Bulle verkleidet hat und so den anderen den Spaß am Fetischsex verdirbt.
    Alles nagt an der Identität des Detectives, der bald seinen Chef bittet, dass er aussteigen will.
    Doch da wird er auf den Studenten Stuart Richards (Brian Cox) aufmerksam. Ist er etwa der Killer ?
    William Friedkin sorgte mit seinem 1980 entstandenen sehr aufregenden Thriller "Cruising" für einen echten Skandal. Dabei gingen vor allem die Homosexuellen auf die Barrikaden, denn sie empfanden, dass der Film nicht gerade gute Werbung für ihre Sache ist, sie befürchteten, dass sich das Image zum Schlechteren wendet.
    Mag sein, dass William Friedkin das Spektakel im Sinn hatte, er zeigt das Milieu zwar atmosphärisch dicht, aber auch als Inferno des Untergangs.
    Trotz allem ist ihm ein faszinierender Thriller der Nacht gelungen, auch Al Pacino hat großen Anteil daran - zeigt er doch die Faszination des Protagonisten für seine bis dato unbekannte Seite.
    Für mich gehört der äusserst düstere Film zu den unterschätzten Filmen der 80er Jahre.

    un film maudit, conspué par le milieu gay, boudé par le public et ignoré par la critique, c'est franchement dommage. Un jour viendra (avant 2050) ou Télarama sacrera son réalisateur William Friedkin et seulement à partir de ce moment là, les gens crierons au génie !!! (ce qui est le cas de nos jours pour : Mario Bava, George Romero, Dario Argento et autres auteurs supposés du point de vue étriqué de cultureux et intégristes du 7éme art !

    This is the Arrow release of Cruising, don't know why it's filed under the name Lockbetet, cause that word is not to be found on the cover. Just the same as the more expensive Cruising blu-ray's.
    Anyway, good movie, audio & video quality also good.
    If you like Friedkin's movies or classic Pacino it's a must buy, especially for this price.
