BRINGING OUT THE DEAD SCORSESE SEQUEL!!!
The Unseen finds Frank Pierce, now a Ladder Captain in the FDNY, grappling with the lingering visions that have haunted him since his days as a paramedic. Though he has left the ambulance behind, the faces of the departed still emerge, flickering just beyond the edges of his reality. As fire and ghostly echoes intertwine, Frank faces a reckoning that could finally reveal the dark reason he’s always been able to see the dead. Coming to cinemas in March 2025.
While “Taxi Driver” and “Raging Bull” basically put Martin Scorsese and Paul Schrader on the map as massive cinematic forces and “The Last Temptation of Christ” continues to have a strong cult following, as well as an early Criterion Collection release (Spine #70 to be exact), their final collaboration, 1999’s “Bringing Out the Dead,” starring Nicolas Cage and Patricia Arquette, still has yet to receive the praise and recognition of their previous works.
Paramount, the studio behind the film, seems to want to change that this upcoming September, as they plan on giving the psychological drama a 4K UHD Blu-Ray release to coincide with its 25th anniversary. In reappraisal of this unfairly maligned capper to a multi-decade partnership, IndieWire lists our reasons for why “Bringing Out the Dead” is worth bringing out of the shadows.
