Amazing sound and video
I'll keep it short(review of the DTS version)The DTS 6.1 channel discrete sound contained on this dvd is one of the most impressive sound mixes i have ever heard,it enhances the the effectiveness of the film tremendously.You'll need a 6.1 DTS receiver and a subwoofer to take advantage of it though.Perfection.The video is the cleanest i have seen in quite some time,the color saturation is striking,flesh tones are accurate,and the scenes at night are genuinely creepy as a result of the dark tint prevailent throughout.I liked it better than the original,the story made more sense,the acting(especially LT was above average),and the pace of the film was just about perfect.Yes the original was great in it's time,but this one takes it to another level with awesome sound,terrific fx,a solid story,excellent cinematography,and very good acting.
