Manhunter : The Final Cut
1986 119mins USA (18) Horror / Crime
Directed by Michael Mann Starring William Petersen, Kim Greist, Brian Cox, Joan Allen

A retired criminal profiler (William Petersen) reluctantly returns to the FBI to help track down a serial killer of families and is forced to consult an expert—the imprisoned Dr. Hannibal Lecktor (Brian Cox in a subtly chilling performance). The third feature written and directed by Michael Mann is a gripping adaptation of the first of Thomas Harris’s four novels featuring the iconic murderer, and benefits from the filmmaker’s typically striking visuals as well as a top-notch supporting cast, including Tom Noonan as the hunted killer, and three-time Oscar nominee Joan Allen (The Contender, 2000) as his blind love interest. 

--

This new 4K Final Cut, overseen by Mann, enhances the film’s depth, visual clarity and sound, offering audiences the ultimate immersive version. Shot in 1985, MANHUNTER was on a frontier in both its subject matter and film form, initiating an impressive list of subsequent films and series.  

“40 years ago – though armed with Thomas Harris’ excellent novel, “Red Dragon” – its subject matter, the profiling of serial killers, as well as being shocking and raw, was unknown. When adapting, I wanted to make its storytelling deliver audiences into a certain state of threat and emotional engagement. Integral to that was the visualization and use of music with lyrics sometimes working like a libretto. We have carefully remastered the film to try to evoke that mood and intensity, heightened with audio sourced from the original 5.1 35mm analog masters. This latest iteration is that version of the film with which I’m most satisfied.” said director Michael Mann.  

Under the guidance of Mann, this 4K scan of the original 35mm negative – with a few shots from an interpositive - was conformed and digitally restored at L’Immagine Ritrovata in Bologna. Both the theatrical version and the UHD HDR & SDR video color gradings were performed by Stefan Sonnenfeld at Company 3 in Los Angeles with the director. Sound restoration was done at Audio Mechanics from an original 35mm magnetic 6-track printmaster to release a new 5.1 mix by Luke Schwartzweller at Fox. Technical coordination and deliveries were managed by L’Immagine Ritrovata. This project was supervised by Becca Mann and STUDIOCANAL team, Jean-Pierre Boiget and Delphine Roussel.  

For Michael Mann, the process is about renewing the film’s immediacy for contemporary audiences: “If the picture was left the way it was, it would be interesting, but you’d feel some distance …you’d be observing it somewhat.  I’m more interested in its original intent impacting you the same way it may have in 1986…that is, to bring you into it again in the original way.” 

As a film distinguished by its striking visual style, including Colleen Attwood’s costume design, Academy Award- winner Mel Bourne’s art direction, Dante Spinotti’s lighting, Mann worked with his long-time collaborator, Stefan Sonnenfeld (Company 3), to develop a new color grade for ‘The Final Cut’ that engages a contemporary audience while honoring the film’s lasting legacy. 

“A good example is the use of primaries and secondaries in combinations that don’t occur in nature for an unsettling ambiance or the use of blue for night-time imagery. We’ve changed values subtly sometimes, but significantly, to enhance the impact without changing the dramatic intent of the film,” said Stefan Sonnenfeld. 

He adds: “Michael… wants you to understand the story and the mood and the environment… and then asks you to interpret that in colour… He also tells you what emotion he’s trying to evoke from the scene.” 

The new version also introduces an HDR presentation, offering an intensified new experience. “So that nobody’s ever seen the movie like that,” noted Sonnenfeld.

Directed by Jane Schoenbrun Starring Hannah Einbinder, Gillian Anderson, Amanda Fix

Hacks breakout star Hannah Einbinder and, in a playful bit of meta-casting, Gillian Anderson (The X Files, Sex Education) headline this heady, gory slasher homage from writer-director Jane Schoenbrun. Like Schoenbrun’s previous films I Saw the TV Glow and We’re All Going to the World’s Fair, it uses a horror genre lens to explore a rich array of themes and ideas – queer identity and sexuality, memory and nostalgia, the nature of female desire, the state of the entertainment industry – with humour, vulnerability and affection.

But fantasy and reality collide when she visits the original film’s star (Anderson), now a mysterious recluse living on its old set, and the two women fall into a blood-soaked world of fear, desire and delirium
