Scum (1979) Limited edition 88 Films UK - 4K UHD / Blu-ray Region B

4K is region free. The Blu-ray is region B. 

Infamously brutal, utterly uncompromising; Scum still hits like a sock full of snooker balls. This is life in a young offenders institution – the inmates are savage, the officers are worse. A swaggering young Ray Winston plays Carlin, the king of the wing; with no rehabilitation on offer, he may as well keep fighting to stay on top

Written by Roy Minton and directed by the legendary Alan Clarke (Elephant; The Firm), Scum is a stark study of institutional power and state-sanctioned violence that refuses to pull its punches. 88 Films are proud to present this merciless masterpiece of British film, restored in 4K and completely uncut.
