“THE BEST AUSTRALIAN FILM OF THE ‘70s!â€
Financial Times
“A STUNNING EPIC… Dennis Hopper has never been better.â€
The Los Angeles Times
June 23, 2010 (New York, NY) – Troma Entertainment celebrates the career of screen legend Dennis Hopper with an uncut, uncensored version of his greatest performance. MAD DOG MORGAN, by writer/director Philippe Mora, remains a critically lauded, groundbreaking piece of Australian cinema and a hard, shocking examination of the adventures of the real Aussie outlaw, Daniel Morgan. Troma’s 2-disc Tromasterpiece special edition DVD of MAD DOG MORGAN not only offers what the universally-acclaimed art house film website Criterion Cast selected as one of Hopper’s best performances, but also comes loaded with special features, including an in-depth interview with Hopper.
“The very recent excellent interview shows a very thoughtful Hopper and opens a window into the mind of a gifted, wise artist†states Lloyd Kaufman, President of Troma Entertainment. “I’ve been making movies for 40 years. I believe I’ve seen all of Dennis Hopper’s work, and having seen the recently discovered complete negative of MAD DOG MORGAN, I can say in confidence that this is the best performance of his entire career. It’s better than EASY RIDER and BLUE VELVET!â€
