On April 7th, Lightyear Entertainment proudly presents the global Blu-ray debut of the crime comedy Randy & the Mob, featuring a brand new 4K restoration from the original film materials, plus the Oscar-winning short The Accountant, and bonus features. 

Good ol’ boy Randy Pearson (Ray McKinnon, Deadwood & O Brother, Where Art Thou?) runs numerous businesses in a small Georgia town. The problem is that none of them are prosperous. This leads the aspiring entrepreneur to borrow cash from Franco (Paul Ben-Victor, The Wire), a loan shark connected to the mob. Things get complicated when the IRS comes calling over his tax debt. Randy tries to hustle money from his wife (Lisa Blount, An Officer and a Gentleman) and begs for bucks from his estranged gay twin brother Cecil (also Ray McKinnon) to no avail. An impatient Franco sends Tino Armani (Oscar winner Walton Goggins, The Righteous Gemstones & The White Lotus) to make things right with Randy and his floundering companies. Tino applies a mobster makeover to Randy’s business plan while pursuing his love of clog dancing. Is Randy going to survive his time with Tino? 

This was an early leading role for Walton Goggins, who over the last few years has become the King of HBO and ubiquitous in TV commercials. The film features appearances by Vic Polizos (Harlem Nights), Bill Nunn (Do The Right Thing), and Burt Reynolds (Smokey and The Bandit). Star Ray McKinnon wrote and directed Randy & the Mob. 

                   

The Blu-ray also includes Ray McKinnon’s The Accountant, with McKinnon in the leading role, and with Walton Goggins and Lisa Blount. The O’Dell brothers (Walton Goggins and Eddie King) call in an accountant (Ray McKinnon) to help save their family farm. The accountant comes up with an unorthodox financial salvation. Can the brothers go along with the plan? The Accountant won the Academy Award for Best Live Action Short Film in 2001.  

The Special Features include a making-of featurette, plus cast and crew interviews.
