Rise of the Footsoldier
Rise of the Footsoldier
The cult footy gangster thriller has been recut with 20 minutes of new extreme footage added!
This Brit crime epic charts the inexorable rise of Carlton Leach from one of the most feared generals of the football terraces to leader of a notorious gang of criminals who rampaged their way through London and Essex during the late eighties and early nineties. The story spans three decades: from football hooliganism through to Leach's burgeoning career as a bouncer, his involvement in the criminal aspects of the early 'rave' scene and subsequently his rise to power as one of the most feared and respected villains in the country. As his notoriety increased, Leach became entwined in a violent series of events, which culminated in the Rettendon Range Rover murders of 1995, one of the most infamous slayings in British Gangland history. This is his story.
Rise of the Footsoldier: Extreme Extended Edition is available on DVD and Blu-ray in a double-play steelbook from December 24th.
