"Arguably the greatest reggae movie ever made, better and much more varied than its well-known predecessor The Harder They Come." - Tyson Schuetze, RELIX "One of the coolest films I've ever seen" - Guy Richie from BLENDER (October 2002) "... one of the most enjoyable musical movies of all time, with a point to make and the sound to drive it home..." - Jo-Ann Greene, GOLDMINE “Rockers is a Jamaican movie with the sparkle of The Harder They Come…in many respects the better of the two…funny off-beat players and a sinuous Reggae score.” – Janet Maslin, NEW YORK TIMES ROCKERS is a Reggae triumph. By all critical standards ROCKERS is one of the greatest Reggae films ever. Starring Leroy "Horsemouth" Wallace and Richard "Dirty Harry" Hall, it’s a Robin Hood style story of oppressed Jamaican musicians getting even with the "mafia types" in the business. But it is the all-star musical performances, appearances, and soundtrack that sets ROCKERS apart, featuring Burning Spear, Bunny Wailer, Third World, Peter Tosh, Jacob Miller, Gregory Isaacs, Kiddus I, Junior Murvin, Inner Circle, the Heptones, & Abyssinians. ROCKERS includes acting roles and appearances by Jacob Miller, Gregory Isaacs, Burning Spear, Kiddus I, Robbie Shakespeare, Leroy Smart, Big Youth, & Dillinger. Theatrically released in June of 1980, this 25th Anniversary Edition is fully loaded with extras, and has been remastered - now on DVD-9, Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound and DTS. Bonus features include: Director’s Commentary with Ted Bafaloukos, Director Documentary, Rockers Music Videos, Original Rockers Theatrical Trailer, Poster Gallery/Radio Spots, Interactive Biographies, Interactive Rasta Patois Glossary, Rockers Apparel, Rockers TV with Producer Patrick Hulsey, and MVD Reggae DVD Gallery.
