Possession Unboxing

Possession, starring Sam Neill and Isabelle Adjani, remains an unsettling, genre-defying masterpiece. Renowned for its intensity and unforgettable, feverish performance from Adjani, the film is a striking piece of surreal horror filmmaking that remains as disturbing and compelling as ever. The cult classic has received the celebrated Second Sight Films treatment, with a stunning Limited Edition 4K UHD set that showcases a meticulous restoration and a wealth of thoughtfully curated extras. Also included is a 220-page book of new essays and an original shooting script book with notes by Andrzej Żuławski and Frederic Tuten. This is one of Second Sight’s biggest and best sets yet – you better make some space on your shelf because this one is essential.
