An ex-con, just released from jail, returns home only to become immediately embroiled in a robbery.

In The Big Sweat, Steven Molone stars as Marco Donnelly, a recently released ex-con trying to put his life back together on his adopted mother's California ranch. But boredom and bad habits die hard, and Marco finds himself drawn back into the familiar chaos of his old bank-robbing crew. Their plan: pull off one more big score and disappear. Their mistake: underestimating the dogged FBI agent Troudou, played by cult favorite Robert Z'Dar (Samurai Cop, Tango & Cash), whose jaw is as square as his determination.

Directed by Ulli Lommel (The Boogey Man, Cocaine Cowboys), The Big Sweat delivers an offbeat mix of crime drama and grindhouse flair, most famously featuring a wild, nearly 45-minute car chase that's become the stuff of B-movie legend. The film captures a pulpy, late-night VHS-era charm that's long been a favorite of cult film collectors, now newly restored from the original 35mm negative.

This Blu-ray edition features a 2K HD scan with extensive color correction and a brand-new interview with production manager Jeff McKay. From the mind of H.B. Halicki, the renegade auteur behind the original Gone in 60 Seconds, The Big Sweat is a fast-paced, eccentric heist film that blends 90s crime grit with drive-in spectacle.
