Description

A three-pack collection that combines the titles VERTICAL LIMIT, INTO THIN AIR: DEATH ON EVEREST and CLIFFHANGER.

VERTICAL LIMIT (PG-13): As action-director Martin Campbell's heart-pumping new thriller VERTICAL LIMIT begins, an eagle glides gracefully over the stunningly filmed mesas of Utah. Its shadow falls on a vertical rock face being climbed by Peter Garrett (Chris O'Donnell), his father (Stuart Wilson), and sister Annie (Robin Tunney). Suddenly, a backpack hurtles by, followed rapidly by two climbers, whose ropes tear the male Garretts from the rock face. The excruciatingly tense sequence ends in tragedy.

After this stunning opening, the action switches to the Himalayas, where tycoon Elliott Vaughn (Bill Paxton) has financed an expedition that will take him to the summit of K2--the world's second highest mountain. Annie is one of Elliott's party. In the face of a threatening storm, Elliott recklessly insists the climb should continue. The storm duly arrives and decimates the expedition, leaving Elliott and Annie stranded. Peter leads a group of climbers--including the grizzled Montgomery Wick (Scott Glenn) and a French-Canadian nurse (Izabella Scorupco)--in a rescue attempt.
Director Martin Campbell, director of photography Derek Tattersall, many daring cameramen, mountain climbers, avalanche specialists, and special effects technicians, along with veteran editor Thom Noble, deliver a beautifully filmed mountaineering thriller with even more heart-stopping moments than JAWS.

CLIFFHANGER (R): After a ranger (Sylvester Stallone)fails to rescue his partner's girlfriend from a tragic death in the Rocky Mountains, he leaves the rescue team to wrestle with his guilt. When he returns to reconcile his relationship with his own girlfriend, also a rescue ranger, he is drawn into one last mission. This time, the victims they are rescuing turn out to be deadly criminals. Academy Award Nominations: 3, including Best Visual Effects.

INTO THIN AIR: DEATH ON EVEREST (Not Rated): Based on Jon Krakauer's phenomenal #1 best-seller, chronicling the true-life suspenseful struggle for survival on the peaks of the world's highest mountain. This is what happens when a group of people, both amateurs and professionals, attempt to climb the Himalayas and find that despite their money and preparations, one can never underestimate the power of nature at it's fiercest.
