"I couldn’t get enough of its look and atmosphere, its fascination and terror, its extraordinary villain, its moody Sherlock-Holmes-as-forensic-underground-man FBI hero, its music-drenched vibe of saturnine lyricism. It’s my favorite thriller of all time." - Variety Mann’s genre-defining serial-killer thriller returns in a stunning new restoration overseen by the filmmaker himself. A retired criminal profiler (William Petersen) reluctantly returns to the FBI to help track down a murderer and is forced to consult an expert—the imprisoned Dr. Hannibal Lecktor (Brian Cox in a subtly chilling performance). Adapted from the first of Thomas Harris’s Lecktor novels, MANHUNTER’s supporting cast includes Tom Noonan as the hunted killer, and three-time Oscar nominee Joan Allen.
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 1986, Manhunter was on a frontier in both its subject matter and film form, initiating an impressive list of subsequent films and series.
