Arrow Video has provided us with a brand new clip for the 4K re-release of classic crime flick King Of New York, which is available now. The film, directed by Abel Ferrara, features an excellent cast that includes Christopher Walken, Laurence Fishburne, Wesley Snipes, Giancarlo Esposito, Steve Buscemi and David Caruso.
After years inside, drug lord Frank White (Walken) is fresh out of jail and back on the streets of New York City. Seeing himself as half Scarface, half Robin Hood, Frank and his enforcers brutally take back control of the city, turf by turf – with starry dreams of using the millions to benefit the community and save a local hospital. Before Frank can fulfil his ruthless lust for power, though, he’s got to get past the crooked cops determined to take him down, and the criminal competition that won’t bend to his will.
You can check out the clip below along with the details of the many bonus features that the release has included within it.
