FIRST LOOK: SHUTTER ISLAND




Martin Scorsese finally gets to do his version of The Shining.
Well, not literally. It's Shutter Island, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Mark Ruffallo as deputy marshals assigned to investigate the disappearance of a madwoman at a remote island asylum that houses the criminally insane.

And from the looks of the trailer (below), it seems like good ol' Leo has some painful secrets of his own that haunt him while he delves deeper into the mystery and possible conspiracy behind the scary prison. Ah, Scorsese. It's nice to see you move away from the cops-and-mobsters routine and give us a nice psychological thriller. We haven't gotten chills like this since, what, Cape Fear - 18 years ago.
