ARENA co-stars Nina Dobrev (The Roommate, “The Vampire Diaries”) and Daniel Dae Kim (“Lost,” “Hawaii Five-0”). Action fans won’t want to miss the life-or-death excitement when ARENA debuts on Blu-ray™ for RRP £17.99 and DVD for RRP £12.99.
Synopsis
How do you make a fortune from the bloodlust of millions? One sadistically savvy businessman (Samuel L. Jackson) has created an empire with his brutal, fight-to-the-death gladiator website. His newest warrior is David Lord (Kellan Lutz), a kidnapped fireman, now imprisoned and forced to fight for his life. To buy his freedom, Lord agrees to do a series of lethal bouts. But as the body count escalates, and with his most challenging battle remaining, Lord unleashes a torrent of bloody carnage and reveals a secret that threatens to tear down the entire enterprise. Also featuring Daniel Dae Kim (TV’s “Lost”) and Nina Dobrev (TV’s “Vampire Diaries”).
