As a seasoned gamer and film enthusiast who has spent countless hours delving into the realms of both virtual worlds and cinematic universes, I can confidently say that the upcoming reimagining of Andrzej Żuławski’s 1981 masterpiece, “Possession,” piques my interest.
The 1981 movie “Possession” by director Andrzej Żuławski has puzzled viewers for over 4 decades due to its unique portrayal of horror. When fans learned that the director of “Smile,” Parker Finn, was planning a fresh take on this material, their concerns were immediately raised, given the minimal similarities between the two works. Despite these differences, Finn and producer Robert Pattinson have stated their intention to maintain all the outrageous aspects cherished by fans from the original, while also creating an experience that will be relatable for newcomers. However, it’s currently unknown if or when this project will progress further.
Finn expressed his enthusiasm about an utterly peculiar upcoming film in an interview with SFX Magazine, as reported by GamesRadar. He emphasized that the production team was committed to preserving the essence of one of his favorite films, “Possession,” and maintaining its intense, chaotic energy. Finn assured fans of the original movie, who might be skeptical about a remake, that when they watch it, they’ll recognize that the film respects their love for the source material and delivers an experience tailored to them.
He also mentioned, “While I aim to attract fresh audience members, I believe remaking this movie presents an excellent chance. People who missed the 1981 version might be drawn to it, thus potentially increasing its fanbase and spreading the affection for it.
The initial film features Sam Neill portraying a secret agent named Mark, who reunites with his wife Anna (Isabelle Adjani) and their son Bob upon coming home. However, he soon realizes that his marriage has been deteriorating during his absence. To uncover the truth, Mark embarks on a quest to identify what has intruded into Anna’s life, causing the rift in their relationship. Yet, this mysterious entity turns out to be far more terrifying than anything Mark had ever envisioned.
Part of the appeal of Possession is how, while it starts as a relatively grounded narrative about the very real fallout of a marriage falling apart, it slowly morphs into something entirely unexpected, building towards a chaotic crescendo. Longtime fans will know that offering up something “bonkers” is a required piece of the puzzle, but also that there’s much more to the tale of terror that has earned it its fan base.
The complexity of following this movie stems from the difficulty American viewers initially faced in experiencing its intense violence fully, as when it arrived at American video stores, over 40 minutes were removed to bring the runtime down to 81 minutes. The unedited version wasn’t available for home viewing until 2000. A high-definition release of the film didn’t happen until a decade later, but its 4K upgrade in 2021 and subsequent theater screenings significantly boosted its appeal among modern audiences, solidifying its legacy.
Although Robert Pattinson is involved as a producer, his potential acting role remains unconfirmed in the upcoming remake of Possession. Keep an eye out for further developments on this exciting project.
