The Blu-Ray was developed as a high-definition successor to the DVD and offers a significantly increased data rate and storage capacity compared to its predecessor. Blu-Rays can therefore store movies with significantly better resolution and offer enormously high picture quality on corresponding screens. Blu-Ray players are usually backward compatible with DVDs, so that they can also be played.

Murderer Patrick is kept in a comatose state between life and death, under the watchful eye of the eccentric Dr Roget. When he is assigned a caring new nurse, Kathy, he becomes possessive, and uses telekinetic powers to torment anyone who comes between them.

From director Richard Franklin comes Patrick, a terrifying fusion of science fiction and Hitchcockian thriller.
