Manhunter: The Final Cut – 40th Anniversary 18

Michael Mann’s genre-defining thriller returns in a 4K director’s cut for its 40th anniversary. Based on Thomas Harris’ novel Red Dragon, we follow haunted FBI profiler Will Graham on the trail of The Tooth Fairy – a sadistic killer who murders by full-moon, leaving animalistic bitemarks ripped into his victims’ flesh. Desperate, Graham enlists the help of cannibal psychopath Dr Hannibal Lecktor, the man he imprisoned in a grisly face-off that almost cost his life, but soon finds himself caught in the twisted cerebral games of two murderous madmen.
