Jacob's Ladder 4K Restored Ver.

[Machine Translation] A 4K restoration of one of the first and most important American films of the 1990s! Jacobs Ladder" is now recognized as an unparalleled cult film, but it took a long time for its legitimate reputation to take root. Directed by Adrian Rhein, who made his mark in the 1980s as a hit maker with films such as "Nine Halves" and "Dangerous Liaisons", "Jacobs Rudder" is a masterpiece of the class of the 4K film industry. With a screenplay by Bruce Joel Rubin, which everyone had dismissed as difficult to follow, Line showed his genius as a storyteller and visualist. Starring Tim Robbins, who was 31 years old at the time of filming. The son is played with an innocent smile by Macaulay Culkin, who was 9 years old at the time of filming, just before his big break with "Home Alone". The last scene is a tearjerker. The successor to this film, Konami's horror game "Silent Hill," is particularly well known, but its DNA continues to spread beyond genres, with a remake to be made in 2019 and a strong influence on Shinzo Katayama's "Avarice in the Rain. Jacob, a Vietnam veteran, now works for the New York Post Office and lives with his co-worker, Jessie. Recently, however, his horrific experience of being attacked by the enemy during the Vietnam War comes back to haunt him in nightmares, and a series of strange events begin to take place around him. When Jacob discovers that his Vietnam-era comrades are also suffering from similar nightmares and hallucinations, he sets out to discover the cause, only to discover a startling revelation... Special features include a making-of featurette and trailer (tentative). Postcard enclosed (planned).
