Is this from the region 1 dvd? I`m from the UK and the region 2 dvd is very limited/ expensive & has no special features.I still have it on VHS video but wondered if it was worth buying a multi region dvd player just to own this great movie on region 1.
Also released that same year was John Landis similar `Into the Night` & the following year Jonathan Demme`s `Something Wild`(another great yuppy nightmare movie!).I love all these films.
@SpecialEd1975 The region 1 dvd is pretty damn good for such a little known film. There is this very documentary. a commentary and deleted scenes (I think about 6 or so). The commentary sadly isn't "live" in the sense that the contributors are all in the same room talking together but is still an insightful listen if you're a big fan of the movie.
@halfvulcan Agreed. Another movie that has the same kind of "bad luck" theme, is Oliver Stone's "U Turn" with Sean Penn. U Turn is not a comedy though, (although I do find some parts in it, to be hilarious haha) but its a good movie. Its like a dark, suspenseful, and violent version, of After Hours. If you like this movie, you should check out U Turn.
nearly everyone i know hasnt heard of this film when i tell them its my best film of all time i supose its good having a kinda random film as your fave
I loved this movie when I was a teenager, but it grew on me even more as I in my ill-starred existence went out into the city to meet girls and catch some nightlife. I became Paul Hackett!!! : O
Great post, Buzzati. Thanks. One of the best movies of the 80's, and perhaps the second best black comedy (behind Dr. Strangelove) of all time. Awesome cinematography and one of those rare movies with its own unique "feel". Why is it not more celebrated? Everyone should see this movie and spread the word.
In a Paul Hackett moment I gave you thumbs down, I meant to give you thumbs up, but jeez, I just...It's nothing personal, honest...I just wanna go home.
Anyway, MrNumbly, I couldn't agree more. Don't understimate the influence of Howard Shore's soundtrack!

Music to the film just recently got released on a Howard Shore Collector's CD. I just got it, it's great.
Also, it looks like 80smoviescollector posted the tracks here on yt. Just search for "after Hours soundtrack."

My favorite movie, too. I think you have to be a little twisted to truly appreciate this film.
