Next year, Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment will bring Martha Marcy May Marlene to Blu-ray. The feature-film debut of director Sean Durkin, this psychological thriller stars Elizabeth Olsen (Peace, Love, & Misunderstanding) as Martha, a young woman who abruptly reunites with her sister Lucy (Sarah Paulson, Deadwood) after a two-year absence.
While Lucy and her husband (Hugh Dancy, Black Hawk Down) attribute Martha's disappearance - as well as her erratic behavior - to a bad incident with an ex-boyfriend, the truth is far more sinister; Martha has just escaped a cult and its enigmatic leader (John Hawkes, Winter's Bone), and she struggles to piece together her sanity in the wake of this brutal experience.
Fox's Blu-ray presents the film in its 2.39:1 original aspect ratio with a 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio track. The disc also includes a number of bonus features, such as:
Five behind-the-scenes featurettes:
