This was previously released by Shout Factory in 2015 as part of a 2-film set with <em>Reptilicus<\/em>. In any case, I presume this is the same transfer from that release and thus doesn\u2019t look spectacular but more on the acceptable range. Detail is decent enough as are the colors but there are plenty of specs that permeate just about every scene.<\/p>\n<p>The disc comes with a standard but effective DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 track. Like the video, this probably was the same one from the Shout release (or similar as that one was PCM 2.0). Even so, dialogue comes across well enough and there is good depth for the more action-centric elements.<\/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","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tenetacles comes to Blu-ray from KL Studio Classics and stars John Huston, Shelley Winters, Bo Hopkins, Henry Fonda and comes out April 12th. &nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,6655,970],"tags":[2540,3852,5043],"class_list":["post-28310","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blurayreviews","category-blu-ray-rundown","category-quick-hit-reviews","tag-henry-fonda","tag-kino-lorber","tag-shelley-winters"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/moviemansguide.com\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28310","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/moviemansguide.com\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/moviemansguide.com\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/moviemansguide.com\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/moviemansguide.com\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=28310"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/moviemansguide.com\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28310\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28312,"href":"https:\/\/moviemansguide.com\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28310\/revisions\/28312"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/moviemansguide.com\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28310"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/moviemansguide.com\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=28310"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/moviemansguide.com\/main\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=28310"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
