Tesis (Alejandro Amenábar) - December 9, 2014 - Blu-ray Forum

Akijama · 09-25-2014, 01:58 PM

Quote:

An American-style thriller from Spain's director sensation Alejandro Amenabar (The Others, Open Your Eyes), Tesis is the story of Angela (Ana Torrent: Spirit Of The Beehive, Cria), a university student writing her thesis about violence in the media. During her research, she comes across a shocking "snuff" film (a film where a murder is actually committed for the camera) that has apparently been shot on the campus. Investigating further, she uncovers clues that the university's administrators may be involved in an unexplained series of student disappearances, leading her to the ultimate terrifying revelation: she might be the next victim. Tesis has been acclaimed by critics around the world as a superbly constructed thriller that generates considerable suspense and thrills from beginning to end.

Sounds good!

Interesting. I got kind of a Cronenberg vibe from that trailer.

Lizard King · 09-25-2014, 02:22 PM

Love this film, day one pickup for me

The Source link in the OP says Tanelorn Films. I think they did the DVD, too.

Tanelorn Films. They specialize in Spanish films. Not sure if they've put out a BD before.

The R1 DVD of this film was pretty crappy (non-anamorphic) and censored to boot. Hopefully the BD is better.

They still haven't put out the Julio Medem films (The Red Squirrel, Tierra, Vacas) from back in 2011. They have allowed their website to expire. Hope they've got things turned around.

Great movie and I hope it gets a really good Blu. I'd also like to see Abre Los Ojos.

Leonidas King · 12-12-2014, 01:22 PM

I'm a fan of Alejandro Amenabar and its the only movie of his I haven't seen. But damn $35.99?!

AlexIlDottore · 12-12-2014, 05:29 PM

Exactly.

Or as Harry Dean Stanton would say

Todd Tomorrow · 12-12-2014, 06:22 PM

I saw this when it came out, preceded by quite a bit of hype from the horror fandom and I felt rather underwhelmed by it. The most interesting thing about for me was to see Ana Torrent, one of the greatest child actors ever, as a grown up.

As I understand it, Tanelorn's next BD after Tesis is likely to be Jacques Becker's One Deadly Summer, pending extras availability, but it may be La Ardilla Roja. We'll have to wait and see.
