Features: 2 Pack
Rob Lowe tops the bill in this comedy and drama DVD 2-Pack as a student who finds that his mother is having a steamy affair with his prep school roommate in CLASS, and in YOUNGBLOOD as a farm boy who struggles to realize his dream of becoming a star in the rugged world of pro ice hockey.CLASS: Rob Lowe (Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me), John Cusack (Being John Malkovich) and Andrew McCarthy (St. Elmo's Fire) make their feature film debuts in this hilarious, sexy mixture of "fantasy and farce" (Boxoffice). Co-starring Jacqueline Bisset (Dangerous Beauty) and filled with lusty coeds, "wild times [and] outrageous scenes" (L.A. Movie Guide), this mother of all teen comedies is "pure fantasy for boys of all ages" (Boxoffice). When wealthy prep-school senior Skip (Lowe) learns that his shy new roommate Jonathan (McCarthy) is a total loser at romance, he sends the aspiring young Romeo to the city to learn the ropes--before he ruins both their reputations. But when Jonathan is seduced by a sexy older woman named Ellen (Bisset), he begins a zany, romantic mis-education that starts with a double major in lust and deception--and ends with the uproarious discovery that not only is Ellen the woman of his dreams...she's also Skip's mom! YOUNGBLOOD: Are you ready for exhilarating speed, invigorating competition and skating so sharp-edged you can feel the ice spraying in your face? Then prepare yourself for Youngblood! Showcasing the talents of Rob Lowe (Bad Influence, The West Wing) and Patrick Swayze (Roadhouse, Ghost), Youngblood is fist-flying, stick-smashing, body-checking thriller right up to the final buzzer! Seventeen-year-old Dean Youngblood (Lowe) has out-skated just about everybody since he was six. Now he's set his sights toward National Hockey League fame with the ragtag Hamilton Mustangs, an amateur Canadian team just across the border from his family's farm. Certain that his swift moves on the ice will dazzle the crowds, Dean quickly learns that his speed and finesse won't pack enough punch against the bad boys of the league, the Thunder Bay Bombers. And when the mustangs' top goal-maker (Swayze) gets knocked out, Dean has to turn from rookie to all-star--fast!
