From 1985, Better Off Dead starring John Cusack (Love & Mercy), is now on 4K UHD!

After his girlfriend (Amanda Wyss, Nightmare on Elm Street) ditches him for a boorish ski jock, Lane (John Cusack, Hight Fidelity) decides that suicide is the answer. However, his increasingly inept attempts bring him only more agony, not to mention embarrassment.

Filled with the wildest teen nightmares, a family you can’t help but identify with, and a host of extremely comic characters, Better Off Dead, directed by Savage Steve Holland, is considered by many to be an essential 80s classic and a painfully funny teenage tale.
