Tighten your seatbelts: Race to Witch Mountain zooms onto Disney DVD & BLU-RAY HI-DEF
26 August 2009

Taxi rides will never be the same again after you catch the amazing adventure and alien-action in Disney’s RACE TO WITCH MOUNTAIN, coming to Disney DVD and 2-Disc Blu-ray™ Hi-Def Combo Pack, which includes a Blu-ray Disc plus a DVD copy of the film in a single package, 26 August 2009!

DWAYNE ‘The Rock’ JOHNSON stars in this family science-fiction thriller as Jack Bruno, a Las Vegas cabbie who finds himself taking passengers to a UFO convention staged out in the Nevada desert. One lucky customer is the failed and kooky scientist Dr Alex Friedman (CARLA GUGINO), who has plans to “reveal all”, at the event about her theories on UFOs and outer space.

Soon afterwards, Bruno ends up with two strange teens, Sara (ANNASOPHIA ROBB) and Seth (ALEXANDA LUDWIG) as his next passengers – volunteering to pay more than $15,000 to take them to a secret destination. Intrigued by the children and enticed by the impressive sum on offer, Bruno embarks on a taxi trip that leads the unlikely trio to a rundown house in the middle of nowhere.

Before Bruno can take his fare and farewell the children, events take a turn towards bizarre with the revelation of a fascinating secret, including an out-of-this-world plan by evil aliens to invade Earth.  Now in mortal danger, Bruno enlists the help of Dr Friedman and the gang battle to escape powers far greater than they ever imagined – in a RACE TO WITCH MOUNTAIN, to save the world!

With alien forces and secret government agents on their tail, including There Will Be Blood’s CIARAN HINDS as Special Agent Burke, Bruno’s quest to return Seth and Sara back to their home planet and prevent alien domination on Earth will be the greatest test of his life.

A modern take on an adventurous Disney classic, and based on the book by Alexander Key, RACE TO WITCH MOUNTAIN will take you on a heart-stopping ride of non-stop thrills with the unlikely team of two teens with supernatural powers, a cabbie and a failed scientist set out to save us all.
