RLJ Entertainment releases The Houses October Built 2<\/em><\/strong> onto Blu-ray presented with a 1.78 widescreen aspect ratio and a 1080p high-definition transfer. As with most of these faux-documentary movies, you get a lot of shaky cam (hence why I decided not to do screen captures) so it\u2019s not a great looking video but colors are fine and when stabilized, detail was relatively sharp.<\/p>\n

The included DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track is more than adequate showcasing the numerous screams and \u2018creepy\u2019 score\/music. There is some good surrounds for the side action and ambient noises so it is a serviceable lossless track.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Overall, The Houses October Built 2<\/em><\/strong> is pretty much like the first film, just with \u201cnew\u201d thrills but honestly, I didn\u2019t care for the original and this one was more of the same.
