The Final Film by Director Sam Peckinpah from the #1 Best-Seller by Robert Ludlum

What would you do if a total stranger proved to you that your three closest friends are enemy agents? For investigative TV host John Tanner (Rutger Hauer), the news comes on the eve of a reunion weekend and his home where the traitors (Craig T. Nelson, Dennis Hopper and Chris Sarandon) are all placed under intense surveillance by a mysterious CIA operative (John Hurt). But as the get-together turns deadly, are Tanner and his family being set up for the most shocking betrayal of all? From its stinging look at media manipulation to its stunning final twist, the ultimate conspiracy will be uncovered by whoever survives The Osterman Weekend.

Burt Lancaster, Helen Shaver and Meg Foster co-star in this action-packed suspense thriller from legendary director Sam Peckinpah (The Wild Bunch, Straw Dogs) adapted from the best-selling novel by Robert Ludlum (The Bourne Identity) . Anchor Bay is proud to present this commemorative two-disc set loaded with unprecedented Extras - including Peckinpah's never-before seen full-length rough cut - for a startling new look at the final film from the still-controversial movie maverick known as "Bloody Sam".
