Director Martin Scorsese has enlisted Leonardo DiCaprio and Mark Ruffalo for the lead roles as U.S. marshalls in his upcoming mystery thriller movie Shutter Island. The film is based on the 2003 novel of the same name written by Dennis Lehane. Production started in March 2008. Shutter Island is slated to be released on October 2, 2009.
Here below the first official movie poster of Shutter Island:
Plot:
“In 1954, two U.S. marshals investigate the disappearance of a patient from a hospital for the criminally insane on an island in Massachusetts. They run into trouble when they are deceived by others, a hurricane hits and when an inmate riot traps them on the island.”
Never read the book but the plot sounds like an ideal setting for scary scenes. And judging from this insane Shutter Island teaser poster, the film is likely to encroach on the horror genre.
Stranded on a remote and barren island off the cost of Massachusetts, I doubt I’d go after some crazy soul… What would you if you were on Shutter Island?
