Restored from the long-lost original negative and overseen by cinematographer Vincent Morton, Roadgames receives an Umbrella 4K restoration with Dolby Vision. This edition brings together all archival extras plus new interviews, commentaries and uncovered material.

The truck driver plays games... The hitchhiker plays games. And the killer is playing the deadliest game of all!

Pat Quid is a lone trucker who always plays games to keep his sanity on long hauls through the desolate Australian outback. Hitch is a free-spirited traveller looking for excitement with a game of her own. And somewhere up ahead, on the loneliest highway in the world, is a psychopathic killer: a latter day Jack the Ripper, whose game is picking up young female hitchhikers and leaving their remains on the desolate Nullabor Plains. But when Quidā€™s innocent curiosity turns into amateur sleuthing, the killer decides to raise the stakes... and the rules of this road take some very deadly turns.

Starring Alan Hopgood; Grant Page; Jamie Lee Curtis; Marion Edward; Stacy Keach
