Do you mean picture and sound on the bd or the movie in general?
If you mean movie. Do you like or have you seen any Dario Argento movies before?
To me it wasn't a bad movie but one I'd probably grab Used on bd I wouldn't run out and get it.
It's no where as exciting as Suspiria Phenomena or The Bird with the Crystal Plumage(which is on bd too).

well everything about it, PQ Audio and the movie itself...
yhea I saw some of Argento's work, not the #1 fan but still as some decent movies...

I'm a fan of Argento's work and this would fall into the cotegory of Argento in his downfall with Mother of Tears being the worst. I will still pick it up. Just need Deep Red, Tenebre, Inferno, Phenomena, and Opera.

There's some heavy noise on the Blu-ray. If its grain or actual noise has been discussed on this forum many times. To me it looks a bit like noise... unfortunately.

And this is far from Argento's best work. I really don't like Asia Argento's acting "skills" (if one can call it a skill...), and there's really no suspense in this one.

I would go for Suspiria, Opera, Tenebre, Bird With The Crystal Plumage (as mentioned before, this is out on Blu-ray), Phenomena and his other old stuff. They kick ass!!!

IMHO his best movie in the last 10 years was Sleepless.

Thanks for reminding me of this movie. I have to purchase it ASAP. Now I only need a good price on it. (Edit) Just ordered the movie from half.com.

Anyone read any reviews or own the Japanese blu ray, if so is it better than the Blue Underground release?
