The strange and brutal deaths of Cory\u2019s (ERIC LARSON) grandparents have haunted him for years.

Demon Wind<\/em><\/strong> debuts on Blu-ray through Vinegar Syndrome from a newly scanned and restored 1080p high-definition transfer culled from the original 35mm camera negative in 2K. The titles from VS have always been a bit hit or miss which makes sense considering the source material, but here I was actually impressed. Detail was generally sharp throughout aided by some the film grain and skin tones had a natural appearance. The only drawback is there were the occasional dirt and dust marks but nothing overly abundant nor distracting.<\/p>\n

The disc is accompanied by an adequate DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track which, save for some ambient noises encompassing the surrounds, more sounds mono in spots and there was a good amount of hissing in the background; but dialogue levels was clear so for a 1990 indie horror project, it\u2019s not too bad of a lossless track.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\n

Overall, Demon Wind<\/em><\/strong> is not exactly a great independent horror film or anything and the performances are, at best, so-so, but it is an enjoyable enough flick with some moderately impressive make-up effects. This Blu-ray released by Vinegar Syndrome offers up great video and alright audio transfers while the features, albeit limited, worthy of watching.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
