With its initial elusive presence, “Possession” has become synonymous with the term cult classic. It was a challenge to locate the film upon its original release, leaving an air of mystery around it. It was only in the 2000s that a DVD was released by Anchor Bay for North American fans, a version discovered by many, including myself, through Netflix’s DVD rental service.
The film’s remarkable energy, raw performances, and haunting visuals have not only survived but thrived over the years, earning “Possession” a dedicated online following. This enthusiasm has seen the movie through multiple re-releases, a Shudder stream, and a striking 4K restoration. The influence is palpable, felt in works from a Massive Attack music video to this year’s cinematic entry, “The First Omen.”
“Possession” may fly somewhat under the radar in comparison to other genre titans, but it has undoubtedly carved out a formidable legacy. The creative forces of Finn and Pattinson recognize this; reports from industry insiders suggest responses to their pitch meetings describe the planned remake as both “bats**t” and “out there.” Pattinson brings his own clout, while Finn’s ascent is marked by the success of “Smile” and buzz around an upcoming sequel, prompting firms like Paramount to contend for the “Possession” remake rights.
Details on the project remain scarce, but indications are, referencing Adjani’s dialogue, “almost” full of promise. We pledge to deliver further updates as this reimagining progresses.
