CENTURY CITY, CALIF. – Emmy® and Golden Globe® winner Kiefer Sutherland (TV’s “24”) comes face-to-face with the ultimate forces of evil in Mirrors, the deadliest horror film to look you in the face from the renowned director of The Hills Have Eyes, available on DVD and Blu-ray Disc (BD) January 13th from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. Dealing with post-traumatic stress syndrome, a former cop takes a job as a night watchman at an old luxury department store that was burned in a large fire. Soon after taking the job, he is haunted by horrific visions in the large mirrors of the store.  Beyond projecting gruesome images of the past, the mirrors appear to be manipulating reality. As he investigates the visions, he realizes the malevolent, otherworldly force is using reflections as a gateway to terrorize him and his family. If he has any hope of saving his family, he must uncover the truth behind the mirrors. Written and directed by Alexandre Aja (The Hills Have Eyes, P2, High Tension), Mirrors also co-stars Amy Smart (Crank) and Paula Patton (Déjà vu, Hitch).
