Mute Witness Limited Edition Blu-ray
SHE WILL NOT BE SILENCED. (The Piper, An American Werewolf in Paris) combines cat-and-mouse suspense with classic intrigue in Mute Witness, an updated version of the Hitchcockian thriller in which the only witness to a brutal crime can neither speak nor scream in terror.
Billy Hughes (Marina Sudina) is a mute special effects artist working on a low-budget American slasher film being shot in Russia. By mistake, she is locked in the studio late one night and happens to see two men filming what appears to be a snuff film. After witnessing their victim's last moments, Billy desperately flees—but this is only the beginning of a protracted night of terror that draws her and her friends into a tangled web of intrigue involving the KGB, the Moscow police......and a mysterious crime lord known as "The Reaper."
Filmed on location in Moscow and starring Fay Ripley (Mary Shelley's Frankenstein) and Evan Richards (Society), Mute Witness is an unpredictable and nerve-wracking cinematic experience. Now fully restored in 4K and presented with a wealth of new and recently discovered bonus material, there has never been a better time to discover—or rediscover - this gem of 90s thriller cinema.
