Official Jacob's Ladder Movie Trailer

Back



A tortured man is caught in a middle-ground between hallucination and reality in this supernatural thriller. Jacob Singer (Tim Robbins) is a Vietnam veteran who is haunted by a horrible experience in battle that deeply troubles him, though he can't clearly recall the details. Jacob also cannot free himself of his anxieties over the death of his son. Though well educated, Jacob works as a letter carrier and has become romantically involved with one of his co-workers, Jezzie (Elizabeth Pena), after divorcing his wife. Jacob's tenuous hold on reality starts to slip as he begins seeing visions of monsters and demons all around him; he suffers severe panic attacks related to the chaos that may be reality, or may exist only in his mind. Jacob seeks counsel from Louis (Danny Aiello), a kindly chiropractor, as his ex-wife Sarah (Patricia Kalember), fellow Vietnam vet Paul (Pruitt Taylor Vince), and enigmatic stranger Michael (Matt Craven) all try to help the tortured Jacob. Macaulay Culkin appears briefly as Jacob's son, while Jason Alexander, Ving Rhames, and Eriq LaSalle also highlight the supporting cast.

I don't watch this for the scare, but for the story of a man with regrets who has to accept death, and his coming to terms with what happened to his son.

Brilliant except for the ending.

The trailer or the movie? I know the "surprise" wasn't, but I think it was brilliant because he finally accepted death. He went to see his son, as it were.

Love head**** movies like these. This, Altered States & Eraserhead can't be beaten for true nightmarish surrealism.

You are aware that the makers of silent hill love jacob's ladder and used the film to help them make silent hill. So to make a comparison isn't wrong. And when you play the video games it shows. I personally think Jacobs ladder is light years ahead of the Silent Hill movie. But i can see how they are alike, they bring the same atmosphere and horror. Especially the video games.
