8MM / 8MM 2

8MM: Academy Award® winner Nicolas Cage (Gone in 60 Seconds) is Tom Welles, a surveillance specialist with a modest, home based business. Respected, but still waiting for the big break that will improve his professional status, Welles spends most of his time on routine cases. Nothing too dangerous, nor too threatening…until a case involving a small, innocuous-looking plastic reel of film turns Welles' life upside down, sending him down a sordid and terrifying path into society's darkest corners. Drifting away from family life, Welles is aided by streetwise Max California (Joaquin Phoenix – Buffalo Soldiers) as he pursues a bizarre trail of graphic and disturbing evidence to determine the fate of a complete stranger. As his obsession with the case grows, Welles enters the seedy world of pornography and sees things beyond his worst nightmares – coming to realize how far-reaching and deadly a small reel of 8mm film can be… 8MM 2: Den uppåtsträvande politikern David Huxley (Johnathon Schaech, Blodsband) ger sig in i en undre värld med nakenklubbar och internetsex. Då han i hemlighet filmas i en het trekant med sin fästmö Tish (Lori Heuring, Mulholland Drive) och ung, snygg modell (Zita Görög, Underworld) måste David ge sig ut på en desperat jakt efter den person som pressar honom på en oerhörd summa pengar för filmnegativen. Men när utpressningen slutar med mord och David kidnappas måste Tish få fram 5 miljoner dollar för att rädda sin fästmans en gång lovande karriär och hans liv.
