Scarface added to video industry Hall of Fame

Scarface was honored in the VSDA's Home Entertainment 2005 event at the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Written by Oliver Stone and directed by Brian de Palma, "Scarface" is an updating of the 1932 gangster classic, "Scarface, The Shame Of The Nation." It follows Mariel boat lift refugee Tony Montana as his brains and guts raise him to the head of a drug cartel, and then as his vices ultimately bring him down. Described by one reviewer as "the most violent, thrilling, revolting, surprising, and gruesome gangster movie ever made," "Scarface" has been a popular video since its release on VHS in 1988. It was first released on DVD in 1998, and is currently available from Universal Studios Home Entertainment in several DVD editions.

The Return of Tony Montana

From Mr. Nightlife's Hollywood: When we last saw Cuban exile and Miami gangster Tony Montana, his cocaine-fueled body was riddled with bullets in the 1983 Brian DePalma cinematic classic, Scarface. Now, IDW Publishing is reviving Tony Montana, in the sequel to the end-all-be-all of gangster movies, with an all-new graphic novel - Scarface: Scarred for Life - available in bookstores and comic stores in July.

The blood-soaked tale picks up where the movie left off, as Tony Montana survives - yes, you read that right - but just barely. Having lost almost everything - including, of course, very nearly his life - Tony must once again claw his way to the top of the sun-drenched Florida underworld. If the chips were piled against the gangster before, he now stands in the shadow of odds stacked twice as high. See the full story here -
