  • Severin Releasing Drowning By Numbers

    Coming in March.

    On March 28th, Severin Films presents the Worldwide UHD premiere of DROWNING BY NUMBERS, the 1988 classic written and directed by Peter Greenaway hailed as “formidable” (The New York Times), “enthralling” (The Washington Post) and “brilliant” (The Los Angeles Times). This two-disc collection (UHD + Blu-ray) has been produced with the enthusiastic participation of Greenaway, including a webstore-only slipcover featuring artwork by the director.

    DROWNING BY NUMBERS

    In between his celebrated THE BELLY OF AN ARCHITECT and THE COOK, THE THIEF, HIS WIFE & HER LOVER, writer/director Peter Greenaway – “one of the most distinctive, provocative talents of his generation” (The Guardian) – shocked/delighted international audiences with this slyly deranged black comedy classic: Oscar® nominee Dame Joan Plowright (ENCHANTED APRIL), four-time BAFTA Award nominee Juliet Stevenson (TRULY MADLY DEEPLY) and two-time Golden Globe nominee Joely Richardson (THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO) star as three generations of women who murder their husbands in an unsettling salvo of sumptuous visuals, macabre capers and numerical mischief. Bernard Hill (THE LORD OF THE RINGS, TITANIC) co-stars in this “fascinating brain buster of very bad manners” (Entertainment Weekly), now featuring a new 4K scan from the original negative personally supervised by Greenaway.

      That scene in the pool shown on the cover is so sadistic. I've never forgotten it.
      Why would anybody watch a scum show like Videodrome? Why did you watch it, Max?

        Ha, just watched this for the first time last night. Was thinking it was overdue for a proper special edition.

          Been a very long time since I saw this, definitely due for a rewatch.
