Oh no

Brian81 · 06-01-2022, 08:39 PM

Well, I almost bought the BD last year but held off due to the quality.

Wow that's awesome news!!

I love this film!! Hopefully they fix the out of sync audio that was on the bluray!!

It’s VCI. The expectations and excitement here are too dang high.

I only own 1 VCI blu and it's A Christmas Carol and looks outstanding. I'm talking about the second release.

Are there releases that bad?

Nearly all of them are. Usually super degrained and poorly encoded. Christmas carol is an outlier.

VCI hits 4k before Grindhouse

If they leave some of the grain intact I will probably still pick it up. It *has* to be an improvement over the blu ray....right?

Should be interesting.

God help us. If the colors are anything like their BD, HDR will make this glow in the the dark.

dmabuse · 06-07-2022, 03:08 PM

Great News! Now we need a 4K of Black Christmas and Deranged.

I'd love a Black Christmas 4K. I'd hate it to come from VCI

nekromantik · 06-07-2022, 04:25 PM

ugh i just bought the VS release

klauswhereareyou · 06-07-2022, 04:29 PM

Well the quality of their blu-ray of this film is very, very, very low, so I'd hope they actually get it right this time.

Agreed, it would most likely come from Shout Factory. Would love for Arrow or Criterion take a crack at it.

Forget it, Jake. It's VCI.
