Lighthouse Blu-ray

'The Lighthouse' Director: Robert Eggers (2019) Arrow Blu-ray

A hypnotic and hallucinatory tale of two men teetering on the edge of sanity.

Two "wickies" - one inexperienced, the other a grizzled veteran - arrive on a remote New England island in the 1890s for a four-week stint maintaining the local lighthouse. But as isolation and personal differences take their toll, both men slowly succumb to their inner demons and to the strange, otherworldly allure of the lighthouse itself...

Featuring virtuoso performances by its two leads Robert Pattinson and Willem Dafoe, striking and period-authentic monochrome photography, and shot through with wickedly dark humour, The Lighthouse is an intense, claustrophobic experience like no other.
