Brad Davis (The Player, Chariots of Fire) and John Hurt (Contact, Alien) star in this riveting truestory of a young American's nightmarish experiences in a Turkish prison and his unforgettable journey to freedom. Busted for attempting to smuggle hashish out of Istanbul, American college student Billy Hayes (Davis) is thrown into the city's most brutal jail. After suffering through four years of sadistic torture and inhuman conditions, Billy is about to be released when his parole is denied. Only his inner courage and the support of a fellow inmate (Hurt) give him the strength to catch the Midnight Express... and escape his living hell.

I've watched this film alot of years ago and found it very powerful then. But to buy from Zavvi on blue ray was even more amazing! Quality sound & images plus you carn't beat true stories. May put some off going abroad for a holiday! Its a must have movie!!
Midnight Express is a great prison movie that still holds up despite being made more than 40 years ago. Although downbeat and often violent, it's a gripping story even though you might take a dim view of the protagonist trying to smuggle drugs out of Turkey. The electronic score by Giorgio Moroder is a bit dated but other than that it feels pretty contemporary. It looks great on Blu Ray, is brilliantly directed by Alan Parker and has superb performances from Brad Davis, John Hurt and Randy Quaid.
Picture quality with this Midnight Express is the best I have experienced on a classic, 40 year old movie, Great extras including commentary and a making of documentary too. Highly recommended!
