"An island lost to unspeakable terrors of PAGAN RITUALS!

Cult horror classic in which devout Christian policeman Sergeant Howie (Edward Woodward) finds himself summoned to a remote Scottish island to investigate the disappearance of a child. On arrival, Howie finds himself increasingly isolated and humiliated by the actions of the island’s community, who belong to a bizarre pagan cult led by the charming Lord Summerisle (Christopher Lee).

'Directed By Jim Sheridan: Four Irish Films' (1989 - 1997) - Blu-ray pre-order available from [Imprint] direct - Aus $119.95

Release date: July 27

"Jim Sheridan: Irelend’s finest director.

Jim Sheridan was a prominent figure of the New Wave of Irish filmmaking in the 1990s. His work has always been praised for his balance between mainstream entertainment and social statements on Irish issues.

My Left Foot (1989), which marked the first of three successful collaborations with actor and fellow Irishman Daniel Day-Lewis including In The Name Of The Father (1993) & The Boxer (1997) all which earned universal acclaim.

His second film The Field (1990) (making its Blu-ray debut in this box) was overlooked at the time of release and is now ripe for re-appraisal with praised performances from Richard Harris, Sean Bean & John Hurt.

This limited-edition collection brings all four films together for the first time with stunning HD presentations, newly produced interviews, commentaries &
features all confirming that Sheridan is a powerful force behind the camera."
  • 1989 My Left Foot

With the help of his strong-willed and dedicated family and his own sheer courage and determination, he learns to grapple with life’s simple physical tasks and develops into a brilliant painter, poet and author.

Winner of two Academy Awards® including Best Actor, Daniel Day-Lewis (1989) and winner of two BAFTAs including Best Actor, Daniel Day-Lewis (1989).
