Keyhole 06/23 Blu-ray (Rental)

Product Description In a house haunted with memories, gangster and Father Ulysses Pick (Jason Patric) arrives home after a long absence towing the body of a teenaged girl and a bound and gagged young man. His gang waits inside his house having shot their way past police. There is friction in the ranks. Ulysses, however, is focused on one thing: journeying through the house room by room and reaching his wife Hyacinth (Isabella Rossellini) in her bedroom upstairs. His Odyssey eventually becomes an emotional tour as the ghostly nooks and crannies of the house reveal more about the mysterious Pick family. Review I feel charged! says the man in the electric chair. A great Guy Maddin film will do that to you and make no mistake, this is one of his great ones. Maddin s mad mélange of melodramatic ghosts and meddlesome mobsters frames a memory tour like none other, exploding two genres with one powerful pop. Jason Patric is Homer-iffic as Ulysses, a charismatic gangster whose violent personal odyssey returns him to his haunted home, therein to confront the restless spirits and animated bodies who haunt him --The Toronto Star At times as creepy as The Shining --Gavin Smith, Film Comment 3 ½ Stars. Surreal, sensational and weird, the film is pure maddeningly, magic Maddin. Winnipeg's Guy Maddin remains the most innovative, high-risk gambler in Canadian cinema. --Toronto Sun
