Mute Witness Limited Edition 4K Ultra HD w/ slip brings back Anthony Waller’s nerve-shredding 90s thriller in its definitive form. Director Anthony Waller (The Piper, An American Werewolf in Paris) blends cat-and-mouse suspense with classic intrigue in this Hitchcock-inspired tale where the only witness to a brutal crime can neither speak nor call for help.
Billy Hughes (Marina Zudina) is a mute special effects artist working on a low-budget American slasher film being shot in Russia. Accidentally locked in the studio one night, she stumbles upon two men shooting what appears to be a snuff film. After witnessing their victim’s death, Billy flees for her life – but this is only the beginning of a harrowing night that pulls her and her friends into a maze of danger involving the KGB, the Moscow police, and a mysterious underworld figure known only as “The Reaper.”
Filmed entirely on location in Moscow and co-starring Fay Ripley (Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein) and Evan Richards (Society), Mute Witness is an unpredictable and intensely suspenseful thriller. Now restored in 4K and accompanied by new commentaries, visual essays and archival materials, this edition offers the best possible way to experience this gem of 90s cinema.
