Holy shit!!! Umbrella are damn legends for bringing this out. So stoked I can't believe it!

I wonder where they are getting their transfer from... Uk, France, Italy or Japan?

Will probably get this if it's cheap, because of the documentry. I know that the fear at 400 degrees is from the uk disc

Ohhhh if they do a nice job on this and it doesn't have any issues like the odd colors, etc, I gotta have it! Can't wait for more info and it comes out and we see some reviews.

Shemp · 08-13-2012, 07:17 AM

Going from one of the special features it sounds like the UK transfer.

Well all I can say is that I am extremely hopeful given that it's Umbrella doing this. I have been consistently impressed by them with their releasing of titles we simply don't see by the majors yet they always handle them well. I own a few of their titles and they are comparable to their overseas counterparts released by Sony in the US (Starman, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein etc).

I have high hopes that this will be another excellent release - fingers crossed! Umbrella's inclusion of decent transfers and lossless audio (something which the likes of Madman Entertainment would do well to take a lesson from) definitely put them at the top of the small time distributors here in Australia, not to mention their titles have more recently started showing up in the 2 for $20 sales.

Would be good if the Italian audio was included too.. but it seems unlikely if its a port of the UK release, just with the added (unconfirmed) 'Eye For Horror' docco.

JB always do that when they haven't got the official details. I have the UK release but might double dip for artwork

Went into JB today and picked up a Stack magazine, and they had a little piece on this disc, with a rather interesting statement in it.

" Fans dissapointed with the British Blu Rays horribly saturated transfer will want to replace it with this superior local edition pronto"

Might see if I can grab this cheap when it comes out to confirm a better transfer.

It also has a little comment on 5.1 sound in case anyone was wondering.

Wow that's a bold statement... hope they can back it up. I wonder if they did their own adjustments to it, hopefully it didn't reduce the quality.

I ordered from JB AUS, but it still says 'Pre Order' on the listing, even though its the release date today.

Working on a custom cover for this.

HotRats · 10-03-2012, 08:34 AM

Very interested. If cash doesn't allow for a blind buy I'll hold off till whiggles gets his hands on one as he's bound to

I believe it's included in the 2 for 30 sale already.

LordCrumb · 10-04-2012, 04:29 AM

Yeah mate, that's how I ordered it too (with Repo Man). Hopefully it wont take too long to Ship.. still 'In Progress' on my Order History.

Brett C · 10-04-2012, 04:30 AM

If it contains TrueHD, I will place my bets now that it is a port of the Japanese BD transfer.

It still has the overblown contrast, pinkish tones and yellow madness.

Someone out there actually made a Fan Edition which has the "correct" colours: http://fanedit.org/ifdb/component/co...served-edition

Awesome!
Question is, how do I get a copy? Does it require a donation? I will go bootleg at this point, now knowing it probably won't be until the remake is made that Miramax re-releases this, and even then it isn't a guarantee.
I must have the fan-made bootleg.

lateralspin · 10-03-2012, 06:55 AM

JB has shipped my online orders, so I will have to wait for mine in the mail.

Suspiria

victortubeman · 10-03-2012, 08:19 AM

Picked this up today(jb) audio has 5.1 and Dolby truehd and no subtitles listed on back.

Later I'll check audio on disc.

LordCrumb · 10-03-2012, 08:21 AM

So Umbrellas Twitter reply to me was baloney lol. Not DTS-HD MA, but TrueHD.

deepbreathsanddeath · 03-24-2013, 04:37 AM

Hey guys, I was just wondering what you guys think of the current Australian blu-ray release for Suspiria? I'm thinking about getting it as part of the buy 2 get 1 free sale from JB. I know the colours are still messed up and the contrast is out of control but it looks like a pretty good release for the time being for just over $10.

Am I better off getting another blu release of it or would this be my best bet for the time being? And that is what I'm aiming for. I plan on buying the definitive copy when it eventually gets released. I'm okay with double dipping but I just want to know if this is a good one to get for the time being.
