For this icily erotic fusion of flesh and machine, David Cronenberg adapted J. G. Ballard’s future-shock novel of the 1970s into one of the most singular and provocative films of the 1990s. A traffic collision involving a disaffected commercial producer, James (James Spader), and an enigmatic doctor, Helen (Holly Hunter), brings them, along with James’s wife, Catherine (Deborah Kara Unger, in a sublimely detached performance), together in a crucible of blood and broken glass—and it’s not long before they are all initiated into a kinky, death-obsessed underworld of sadomasochistic car-crash fetishists for whom twisted metal and scar tissue are the ultimate turn-ons. Winner—Special Jury Prize at Cannes "A strange and insightful film about human sexual compulsion...Challenging, courageous and original."—Roger Ebert All sales are final; there are no refunds.

After a boating accident kills her family, shy Angela (the iconic Felissa Rose) lives with her eccentric Aunt Martha and cousin Ricky. Angela and Ricky are sent to Camp Arawak for the summer, where bizarre and violent accidents are claiming the lives of campers.

Gloria Swanson, as Norma Desmond, an aging silent-film queen, and William Holden, as the struggling young screenwriter who is held in thrall by her madness, created two of the screen's most memorable characters in "Sunset Boulevard." Winner of three Academy Awards®, director Billy Wilder's powerful orchestration of the bizarre tale is a true cinematic classic. From the unforgettable opening sequence -- a body found floating in a decayed mansion's swimming pool -- through the inevitable unfolding of tragic destiny, "Sunset Boulevard" is the definitive statement on the dark and desperate side of Hollywood. Erich von Stroheim as Desmond's discoverer, ex-husband and butler, and Nancy Olson as the bright spot amidst unrelenting ominousness, are equally celebrated for their masterful performances. 1951 Academy Award Winner—Best Original Screenplay, Art Direction, Original Score "The finest movie ever made about the narcissistic hellhole that is Hollywood."—BBC "Sunset Boulevard remains the best drama ever made about the movies because it sees through the illusions, even if Norma doesn't."—Roger Ebert All sales are final; there are no refunds.
