Martin Scorsese’s latest thriller Shutter Island starring Leonardo DiCaprio will come ashore on Blu-ray Disc and DVD on June 8.
Shutter Island earned $41.1 million its opening weekend at the box office earlier this year as the best ever opening for a Scorsese film. By the end of its theatrical run, the film’s earnings topped $125 million domestically.
Paramount is publishing Shutter Island on Blu-ray in 1080p video and 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio. The spec differences between the Blu-ray and DVD editions end here as the scant bonus features are identical between the two sets.
- Behind the Shutters — Follows the film from its inception as an acclaimed novel through the production process and to the big screen. Includes interviews with cast and crew.
- Into the Lighthouse — Discusses the historical landscape of psychiatric therapies during the 1950s through interviews with cast and crew.
No Shutter Island on Blu-ray pre-order link at Amazon.com yet, but I’ll add it to the site as soon as it appears.
