French label Le chat qui fume officially announced today that it is preparing a 4K Blu-ray release of Andrzej Żuławski's film
Possession (1981), starring Isabelle Adjani, Sam Neill, Heinz Bennent, Margit Carstensen, and Johanna Hofer. The upcoming release, which will be sourced from a brand new restoration completed in association with TF1, is expected to arrive on the market later this year.
Synopsis: In this controversial epic of obsessive love and sexual psychosis, Isabelle Adjani (
Nosferatu the Vampyre) and Sam Neill (
Jurassic Park) star as a married couple torn by emotional instability and carnal infidelity. As their madness grows, their world becomes a nightmare of savage murder...and climaxes in a monstrous manifestation of sexual evil.
Written and directed by acclaimed international director Andrzej Zulawski and featuring shocking creature effects by Carlo Rambaldi (
E.T.,
Alien),
Possession is an experience like no other; part masterful art film, part bizarre horror thriller.
