Rosewood Lane and White Noise: The Light aren’t exactly top-of-the-line movies and the pairing is a bit odd as one is a grounded thriller while the other is in the supernatural realm.

| ROSEWOOD LANE (2011)
Radio talk show therapist Sonny Blake (ROSE MCGOWAN) moves back to her childhood home on seemingly idyllic Rosewood Lane after her alcoholic father dies. But upon arrival in the old neighborhood, Sonny discovers her neighbors are terrified of the local paperboy (DANIEL ROSS OWENS). She thinks this is ridiculous, until she encounters the boy himself. It turns out that he is cunning and dangerous sociopath, one who may have gruesomely killed her father… and others. WHITE NOISE: THE LIGHT (2006) What would you do if you could tell who was about to die? Would you try to intercede, to stop something horrible from happening? Would you tempt fate? Would you play God? Abe Dale (NATHAN FILLION) is faced with that terrifying choice. After his family is brutally murdered and surviving his own near death experience. Abe undergoes a transformation that allows him to “see” those among the living who are about to die. But when he tries to save people from their fate, he discovers there is an ultimate price to be paid for interfering with the natural order of life and death. |
SPECIAL FEATURES – 3.5/5 |
|
Both movies are on the same disc. Rosewood Lane only has a Trailer (1:55) while it appears all of the bonus material from the White Noise: The Light DVD were ported over including: 13 Deleted Scenes (33:48), The Making of White Noise: The Light (8:36), Exploring the Near Death Experience (14:56), Journey Into Madness (6:00) and the Trailer (2:10). |
VIDEO – 3.75/5 |
| Both films are presented with 2.35 widescreen aspect ratios and given 1080p high-definition transfers. Nothing outstanding about either of these and a little concerning putting two movies, with some features, on one disc, but still these look pretty good showing some decent detail and colors are certainly on the darker side. |
AUDIO – 3.75/5 |
| The DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 tracks are available on both movies and showcases clear dialogue through the center channel, and some okay depth from the front and rear speakers, but neither of the movies are exactly filled with thrills or overabundance of action. |
OVERALL – 2.75/5 |
|
Rosewood Lane and White Noise: The Light aren’t exactly top-of-the-line movies and the pairing is a bit odd as one is a grounded thriller while the other is in the supernatural realm, but as budget releases go, it’s an okay enough set. |
