VIDEO \u2013 3.0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n

<\/em><\/strong><\/em><\/strong>Mischief Night<\/i><\/b> is presented in anamorphic widescreen with a 2.40 aspect ratio. The video is pretty much on par with what you\u2019d expect from a DTV affair with soft colors, mostly darker given the genre, and some bouts of pixilation and\/or artifacts.

AUDIO \u2013 3.5\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Dolby Digital 5.1 is fairly strong if not unremarkable with a good portion being front-loaded. Dialogue is clear and when the killings begin, blood-curdling screams come through well enough.<\/p>\n

OVERALL \u2013 2.0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Overall, Mischief Night<\/i><\/b> is your typical and cheap direct-to-video horror movie with nothing new to offer although I did find star Noell Coet to be one of the few highlights, so hopefully she finds better material in the future. The DVD released by RLJ Entertainment isn\u2019t overly impressive with merely adequate video\/audio transfers and a forgettable bonus feature.<\/p>\n
