Possession
Directed by Andrzej Żuławski
Banned upon its original release in 1981, Andrzej Żuławski’s stunning nightmare of a marriage unraveling is an experience unlike any other. Professional spy Mark returns to his West Berlin home to find his wife Anna insistent on a divorce. As Anna’s frenzied behavior becomes ever more alarming, Mark discovers a truth far more sinister than his wildest suspicions. With its pulsating score, visceral imagery, and some of the most haunting performances ever captured on screen, Possession is cinematic delirium at its most intoxicating.
This stunning nightmare of a marriage unraveling is a cinematic experience unlike any other.

This shit was fantastic
Intensely great acting, slimy guy was spooky
Holy crap what a ride! Totally unique. There's nothing else like it.
really good
Isabella Ashanti puts on the most intense acting performance I can recall in any movie I’ve seen. I was pleased to learn she won Best Actress as the 34th Cannes Film Festival for her work. This is a film anyone going through a divorce, infidelity, death or ending can relate to, with the exception of octopus copulation. Arresting, haunting, and imaginative, I thought this was a bold movie depicting horror an individual can face in life.
