[MCT]

Anyone here have this? Im thinking about importing it next week, along with Se7en. Comment on PQ/AQ and the movie itself, thanks.

looked great and a decent entertaining film
reminded me of 30 days of night

sorry for the indepth review

heres the scan of the coverart

very thorough analysis, friend.

why isnt there an official review on this site? I actually had this on DVD but sold it off when I went Blu...one of my MANY DVD's that went unwatched.

I have this one, its a great entertaining movie if you like the genre.
PQ is pretty good, I was expecting the worst as its not a very well known movie and I don't think it did too well in the theatre. I would assume its the same encode as the HD DVD that came out. I would recommend it for a fan of horror or cheesy B movies...

I would have bought it already if not for the fact it is only encoded in 1080i resolution. Film-based material like this movie really benefits from 1080p.

Where do you get that its 1080i? The pic above says that its FULL HD 1080. Doesn't that translate to 1080p? Heck, even the info for the movie on this site says it's 1080p.

Oh no, seriously!? Crap. I wonder if/when it's released here in the U.S. it may have a new encode? I doubt they'd go through that kind of trouble for a movie that isn't a flagship title, but here's to hoping anyway. If not I may just hold off indefinately.

Um a bug movie reminded you of a "vapire" movie? I'd like to hear the reasoning.
This is a great little flick more in the vain of Night of the Creeps.

watch it and tell me the infected people near the end doesnt kind of remind ya, the whole plot is different, yea. I am not saying its bad, just thats the reflection I gathered

[zardoz]

i didn't like this movie at all and i will not buy it on blu-ray.

this is no "Shaun of the dead". If you want to be funny, imnsho you have to :
- have talent
- have a story to tell. (there is just no plot at all here)

[househead]

I dont care if this movie is 1080i 1080p or 1080abcdef. It looks great playing on my PS3. Just as good as it did on HD DVD.

I doubt this movie is coming anytime soon in the US since it hasn't sold nearly as well as they hoped (theater run and dvd) so don't let the 1080i thing be a dealbreaker.

I had no idea and couldn't tell the difference in PQ.

Maybe no one has said it because you're the only one thinking it.

it is not 1080i

It is FULL HD 1080P
And the PQ is very good.
