The Island (1980) (Blu-ray)

For 300 years, a terrifying secret has been kept from the outside world! Screen legend Michael Caine (The Ipcress File, Dressed to Kill) stars as Blair Maynard, an investigative writer who doggedly tracks one of the most baffling mysteries of modern times—the disappearance of pleasure boats and passengers from within the Bermuda Triangle of the Caribbean. During his investigation, he and his twelve-year-old son are captured by savage raiding pirates who need his services to improve their degenerated gene pool. When his son is converted to the pirates’ heathen ways and turns against him, Blair must come to his rescue in this action-packed super-thriller written by Peter Benchley (Jaws) and directed by Michael Ritchie (Prime Cut). Featuring David Warner (The Omen) as the nefarious pirate leader, with breathtaking cinematography by Henri Decaë (Le cercle rouge) and a swashbuckling score by the maestro Ennio Morricone (Orca).
