Yes! Quiet Earth is one of my favorite post-apocalyptic films, and is all but forgotten these days. I've only seen this once, on the older DVD - but, really enjoyed the film - this takes the "Last man on Earth" concept & twists it around somewhat - excellent.

The PQ in this remastered trailer is amazing! Hopefully it will be released to Blu, since the original DVD is OOP & IIRC quite expensive at this point...

Geoff Murphy went on to do Under Siege 2 as well as a lot of 2nd unit stuff on the LOTR movies.

Well, we wont hold that against him.

You'd think an Australian or NZ blu-ray of this would be inevitable, right?

So this is the New Zealand Film Commission's on demand website, and poor Americans, we are blocked from viewing The Quiet Earth

Turnabout's fair play, right?

I'd love a Blu-ray release from Australia, or the UK through Arrow or the USA.

Good Lord, get this done! The new transfer is definitely a step in the right direction, but it is so long overdue. Anyhow, a great film, one of my favorite films, and let's just say I'll be keeping my DVD until the BD is in my tray.
