I suppose this looks as good as it ever will for what was presumably low budget, independent supernatural horror movie. Still, this did get a new transfer culled from a 2K scan from the 35mm Interpositive. Colors generally look fine though not vibrant (better than being artificially pumped up) and detail is decent enough even with some heavy natural grain.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"*\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviemansguide.com\/images\/main\/bar_blue.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"3\" \/><\/p>\n<table id=\"review-content\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>AUDIO \u2013 3.0\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<hr \/>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: justify;\">The disc has a DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 channel track.
