Road to Hell is a 2008 action-fantasy film, starring Michael Paré, Deborah Van Valkenburgh, Clare Kramer and Courtney Peldon, directed by Albert Pyun. It is a non-official sequel to Walter Hill's Streets of Fire.

Cast

Plot

A soldier who has been fighting a long war is driven mad because he no longer believes in any purpose or righteous truth behind the killing. He comes home to a surreal world looking for his first and only love from his youth, believing she will rescue him from his demons. On the road to Edge City he encounters two seductive spree killers who oppose his efforts to find his love and the redemption he desperately seeks

Production

A majority of the filming for the project took place in 2008. However, a technical problem with the digital cameras extended the film's post-production time significantly.[2] Further shooting took place in late 2011 at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas to add additional scenes featuring the band The Roxy Gunn Project.[3]

Release

The film had its unofficial North American premiere at the Alamo Draft House in Austin, Texas in October 2008 when Pyun screened a work print of the film.[4]
