About this product

Product Information

In 'Knife In The Water' Polanski ably captures all the tension which builds between a mismatched couple and a hitch-hiker. Nominated for a Foreign Language Film Award. 'Repulsion' tells the story of a young, beautiful, but sexually repressed, girl who descends into a vortex of madness when she is left on her own after her sister goes away on holiday. 'Cul-De-Sac finds the timid, neurotic owner of a lonely castle and his wife who indulge their strange fantasies. Then two gangsters-on-the-run hold them hostage.
