Misery Limited Edition

£24.99

Released: 21st September 2026. PAUL SHELDON USED TO WRITE FOR A LIVING. NOW, HE’S WRITING TO STAY ALIVE.  From director Rob Reiner (Stand By Me, A Few Good Men) and screenwriter William Goldman (Marathon Man, All the President’s Men) comes Misery, a terrifying thriller based on the bestseller by Stephen King. Caught in a snowstorm, bestselling romantic novelist Paul Sheldon (James Caan) suffers a horrific car accident but is rescued by former nurse Annie Wilkes (Kathy Bates). With the phone lines down and the roads out of use for the winter, Annie – who happens to be Paul’s “number one fan” – takes him home, sets his broken legs and tends him back to health. But fandom turns shockingly violent when Annie learns that Paul is moving on from the romance novels that made his name. Now trapped and at Annie’s mercy, Paul must write like his life depends on it... because it really does.  Bates (in an Academy Award-winning performance) and Caan are outstanding and are matched by a pitch-perfect supporting cast that includes Lauren Bacall, Richard Farnsworth and Frances Sternhagen. Reiner takes an unexpected turn to the darker side and proves himself an adept disciple of Alfred Hitchcock as he delivers shocks and suspense worthy of the master. 4K ULTRA HD LIMITED EDITION CONTENTS 4K (2160p) Ultra HD Blu-ray presentation in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible)  Original lossless stereo and 5.1 surround audio options  Optional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing  Archival audio commentary with director Rob Reiner  Archival audio commentary with screenwriter William Goldman Brand new audio commentary by film critics Teri Gamble & Julia Marchese, co-hosts of the Horror Movie Survival Guide podcast  Misery’s Chord, a newly filmed interview with composer Marc Shaiman  Archival interview with director Rob Reiner  Archival interview with effects artist Greg Nicotero  Misery Loves Company, an archival making of featurette  Marc Shaiman’s Musical Misery Tour, an archival featurette Diagnosing Annie Wilkes, an archival featurette  Profile of a Stalker, an archival featurette  Advice for the Stalked, an archival featurette  Celebrity Stalkers, an archival featurette  Anti-Stalking Laws, an archival featurette  Theatrical trailers  Image galleries  Reversible sleeve featuring two original artwork options  Collectors’ booklet containing new writing by film scholars Sean Abley, Kat Ellinger, Alexandra Heller-Nicholas and David Moses
