Foggy · 02-22-2018, 07:00 AM

So this comes out next week, totally slipped under my radar but really excited to check it out.

Here's a nice review from Sci-Fi Online: http://www.sci-fi-online.com/00_revs...26_thelma.html

(It mistakenly says the subs are burnt-in; I've asked them to correct this as they are player-generated.)

It reminded me more of a Twilight Zone episode. Got this on VUDU. I was hoping for a bit more after watching the trailer. Does anyone know if the Blu-ray is region locked?

I liked it, and will pick it up, but still need to get Louder Than Bombs. I've already expressed my enthusiasm for Trier's Oslo, August 31st before and still hope Thunderbird will consider upgrading it to Blu-ray eventually...

I saw it for the first time just last week on its opening night (I know, pretty late theatrical premiere but I am glad our Slovak distributor managed to get this movie after all) and I loved it! I purchased a Blu-ray copy directly from Thunderbird so I can't wait to get it

(I am also surprised it comes with a slipcover)...

I purchased it and was underwhelmed. I thought it started out well but lost it's way as it progressed. I don't get the comparisons to De Palma's Carrie (a far superior film in every respect) and really quite different.

My copy if heading off to eBay.

I totally get the comparisons. But Thelma emancipated itslef boldly from this influence. I really enjoyed this movie.

Does the BD come with any bonus features?

According to the back cover (as I didn't pay any attention to what the extras when I played the film, I just hit play) there is an interview with the director, lead actress & a making of.

Is there a region A-friendly version of this movie?

ParisTexan · 09-18-2018, 10:02 PM

Did anyone notice any problems with compression in the film's darker shots? Certain instances really pulled me out of the film.

Do we know the bitrate of this BD?

Wow, just caught the second part of this movie on Swiss French tv and I just could not take my eyes off it! It was shown in its original language with French subtitles, and given there isn't a lot of dialogue that aspect was not too distracting.
What a movie, really, I must have it.
Is there a BD version that has its original language track and English or French subtitles? Or any other main European subtitles?

If anyone hasn't seen it, I strongly recommend it and don't let the plot throw you off. It reads like a slasher movie or some cheap horror flick but it's more like a really classy supernatural suspense movie.
I'm going to recommend it to everyone now!

The UK BD listed in the first post of this thread has the original Norwegian audio and English subs.
There is also a French BD that has the original audio (plus optional French dub) and French subs.

The Region-A DVD that I picked up is a burned DVD-R.
