The story of the heartbroken factory worker who becomes a nightclub bouncer in Neil Thompson’s gritty and poignant Britflick won us 4/5 stars on Blu-ray.com.

Clubbed is a unique gangster thriller set during in 1980s club-scene in Coventry.

It was shot on 16mm film, which gives a grainy quality that fully complements the gritty storyline and the 80s Coventry setting. We encoded the footage to h.264 which retained the detailed, film-like presentation.

The soundtrack features 80s Disco and Northern Soul hits such as Good Times and Everybody Dance by Chic.

The DTS HD Master Audio track on the disc gives the viewer the best possible ‘lossless’ audio quality. The release also includes a standard DTS soundtrack.

When designing the menus we took cues from the art direction of the film, and those of the accompanying DVD that comes with this two disc set.  We ensured that the menus respected the style of the film, which suits the immediacy of the menus in the Blu-ray format.

The DVD extras include interviews, deleted scenes, the making of and the original trailers.
