Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio team up for a fourth time for this adaptation of SHUTTER ISLAND, a novel by Dennis LeHane (MYSTIC RIVER). The film opens in 1954 as World War II veteran and current federal marshal Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) and his new partner, Chuck (Mark Ruffalo), ferry to Shutter Island, a water-bound mental hospital housing the criminally insane. They have been asked to investigate the disappearance of Rachel Solando (Emily Mortimer), a patient admitted to the asylum after she murdered her three children. As Teddy quizzes Dr. Cawley (Ben Kingsley), the head of the institution, he begins to suspect that the authorities in charge might not be giving him the whole truth, and that a terrible fate may befall all the patients in spooky Ward C - a unit devoted to the most heinous of the hospital's inmates. Complicating matters further, Teddy has a secret of his own - the arsonist who murdered his wife is incarcerated on Shutter Island. Driven to confront his wife's killer, and stranded on the island because of a hurricane, Teddy must unravel the secrets of the eerie place before succumbing to his own madness. Max von Sydow, Emily Mortimer, Michelle Williams, Patricia Clarkson, and Jackie Earle Haley round out the supporting cast.

Mark Wahlberg and director Antoine Fuqua (INFINITE) first teamed-up for this stand-out action thriller, available for the first time in 4K UHD. Wahlberg is respected former Marine scout and sniper Bob Lee Swagger, pressed into service to stop an assassination attempt against the President. But the unthinkable occurs-he's double-crossed and framed for the attempt. Determined to prove his innocence, a high-tension race from every law enforcement agency in the country and a shadowy organization that wants him dead begins.

San Francisco based millionaire industrialist Walter Williams (Brian Donlevy) has a younger wife, Irene (Helen Walker)), who is trying to kill him with the help of her lover, Jim Torrance (Tony Barrett). Walter and Irene are planning to drive to Lake Tahoe when Irene feigns an illness at the last minute. Irene has hatched a plan and asks Walter to give Torrance (who is pretending to be Irene's cousin) a ride to Denver, Colorado, which allows Torrance time to murder Walter en route. The murder goes awry when Williams survives a blow to the head administered by Torrance. Torrance flees the scene in William's car, but ends up in a head-on collision with a tanker truck, which instantly kills him. Experiencing amnesia from the blow to his head, Williams ends up in Idaho. He gets a job as a mechanic and falls in love with Marsha Peters (Ella Raines), widow of the station owner. There are still lots of unbelievable twists and turns in this fascinating plot, but you must watch this vintage classic to find out! A great suspenseful thriller if ever there was one!
