The acclaimed, disturbing 1990 thriller Jacob's Ladder – starring Tim Robbins, Danny Aiello, Ving Rhames and Elizabeth Peña – makes its worldwide UHD debut in October as part of StudioCanal’s Cult Classics range, with a superb brand new 4K restoration, in a highly collectable SteelBook, and features a brand new documentary. The film will also be released on Blu-ray and Digital.

Directed by Adrian Lyne (Fatal Attraction) and written by Bruce Joel Rubin (who scripted the smash hit Ghost), Jacob's Ladder is a powerful and visually striking thriller, and stars Tim Robbins (The Shawshank Redemption) as a Vietnam veteran wrestling with tragedy and troubled by hallucinations in New York City. Stunningly shot, and with an ominous score by Maurice Jarre (Witness), it's a moving, viscerally shocking and gripping character study featuring a tremendous central performance from the brilliant Robbins. The film also stars Danny Aiello (Leon), Ving Rhames (Pulp Fiction) and Elizabeth Pĕna (La Bamba).

Despite its modest reception upon release, Jacob's Ladder’s fever dream narrative, nightmarish imagery, dread-laden atmosphere and incredible special effects have ensured that the legacy of Adrian Lyne’s psychological horror has far outgrown its initial impact. Described as “dark, fearful and terrifying” by Eye For Film, Jacob's Ladder, a cross between Taxi Driver and The Twilight Zone, has proved highly influential since its initial release, inspiring the likes of Silent Hill, Se7en and Source Code – and once seen you won't forget it.

Jacob's Ladder will be available to buy on 4K UHD SteelBook, Blu-ray and Digital from 13 October 2025 at the pre-order price of £30 for the UHD Steelbook and £15 for the Blu-ray.
