The Great Outdoors
Directed by Howard Deutsch
Brand New HDR/Dolby Vision Master – From a 4K Scan of the 35mm Original Camera Negative! - When an unannounced, uninvited and unwelcome family of fun-loving misfits converge upon a lakeside resort to join their relatives for a summer of relaxation, the result is anything but restful in this raucous comedy starring the irresistible duo of Dan Aykroyd (The Blues Brothers) and John Candy (Uncle Buck). From iconic writer John Hughes (Plane, Trains and Automobiles) and director Howard Deutch (Pretty in Pink), this “camp” classic chronicles a vacationer’s worst nightmare, as wheeler-dealer Roman Craig (Aykroyd), his sexually repressed wife and eerie twin daughters “join” the easygoing Chester “Chet” Ripley (Candy) and his straitlaced clan for a season of “fun” in the sun. Unfortunately, the only thing these two in-laws have in common is their intense dislike for each other. Soon, it’s brother-in-law against brother-in-law in an uproarious and hilarious fight to the finish to see which one really knows how to enjoy The Great Outdoors.
