25th anniversary of Tarsem's devisive, yet undeniably stunning psychological horror/thriller.
Before THE FALL, visionary director Tarsem made THE CELL, in which Jennifer Lopez stars as psychotherapist Catherine Deane, who has developed a technique to enter the unconscious mind of another. Now, in a desperate attempt to save an innocent life, she enters the mind of a comatose serial killer (Vincent D'Onofrio) to find his latest victim – a young woman whom the maniac has kidnapped and imprisoned in a torture chamber. But once inside the killer’s subconscious, can Deane return with her life – and her mind – intact?
Part of our Farewell to 1403 series.
“An original and stylish vision of insanity.” Michael O’Sullivan, Washington Post
“This is one beautifully surreal and unsettling thriller, with astounding visuals that will lurk in the crawlspaces of your brain after you’ve left the theater.” Mark Rahner, Seattle Times
“The Cell is a bizarre mixture of science fiction and serial murders, mind games and pop psychology, wild images and haunting special effects… I know people who hate it, finding it pretentious or unrestrained; I think it’s one of the best films of the year.” Roger Ebert
