Dangerous Game Title

Dangerous Game (1993) – Imprint Collection #335

Harvey Keitel stars in this thrilling drama alongside pop superstar Madonna, as a film director whose world is turned upside down when life begins to imitate art.

While he’s known for his experimental direction, for Eddie Israel, nothing quite compares to the intensity of what unfolds on the set of his latest film centred around an abusive marriage. Yet, more unsettling than the scripted violence is the fact that the brutality begins to seep off the set and into real life.
