Patrick Limited Edition Blu-Ray
From director Richard Franklin (Roadgames) comes Patrick, a terrifying blend of science fiction and Hitchcockian thriller, starring Susan Penhaligon (House of Mortal Sin), Robert Helpmann (The Red Shoes), and Robert Thompson (Thirst).
Killer Patrick (Thompson) is kept in a comatose state between life and death under the watchful eye of the eccentric Dr. Rogets (Helpmann). When he is assigned a new caring nurse, Kathy (Penhaligon), he becomes obsessed and uses telekinetic powers to torment anyone who comes between them.
Patrick was produced by Antony I Ginnane (Snapshot), written by Everett De Roche (Harlequin), and scored by Brian May (Mad Max). Its exemplary international success made Patrick a milestone in the Australian New Wave."
