Video:

Resolution is stunning. The image remains crisp and dimensional even in darkness and the deeply saturated light, with no apparent compromises (softening or added noise) made or needed to make the CG more believable. I was never dissatisfied and hope that Lake Placid, Jurassic Park and all the other great monster movies still to come to high def, look this amazing when they do.

Audio:

24 bit/48kHz PCM

As great as the video looks, this disc sounds even better.

So, did you like the movie?

jrchisholm · 06-14-2007, 08:25 PM

Blu_Tiger I like that you changed your avatar with your name change.

I was wondering about this title also. I love horror and I even like bad horror. So maybe it does not really matter.

I saw this movie on a cruise. As far as monster movies go, it was okay. It definately has one of the best side stories I've seen in a horror movie. And who can resist Jurgen Prochnow (Judge Griffin in "Judge Dredd") speaking about death?

Based on quality of visuals and entertainment, is primeval worth buying?

Banjo · 06-16-2007, 12:58 AM

Visually, not bad at all. Quite good...

However, the movie is just ok-ok. I did watch the whole movie, I was kind of surprised that the side-story was pretty political.

The crocodile looked fake though.

no

teacher_man99 · 06-16-2007, 02:35 AM

Watching it right now. PQ seems good. Entertainment-wise, it's not my favorite movie in the world but OK. The political side-story is making it a bit better IMO. If you're not sure, rent it first.

BLu-Balls · 06-16-2007, 02:37 AM

PQ and audio 4/5

It's a horror movie on Blu-ray (so few of those). So if you liked Lake Placid, it is something to consider.

inuyashalover21 · 06-01-2008, 12:10 AM

How was it? Did it have a good plot? how was the PQ and AQ? Was the ending crap? Should I steer clear of this BD and find something more interesting?

Blu-dock Saint · 06-01-2008, 12:12 AM

PQ and AQ are pretty good, nothing to write home about. The story however pleasently surprised me, I was expecting a craptacular monster movie type thing, but it was actually pretty decent. The ending was a typical hollywood style ending if you ask me, no surprises and such, I'd recommend a rent, but not much more.

Thanks for the fast reply. I will go rent it this week

It was better than I expected but I'll admit I didn't care for it much the first time I watched it. I'm not sure if it was the mood I was in or what. After viewing it a 2nd time, I liked it a lot more. The PQ/SQ are good and a pleasant surprise. I didn't expect much in that area.
