There's also quite a lot of film grain, resulting in a reduction in both detail and sharpness. The overall video quality makes this disc look like it came from a movie made a full decade earlier, but that could probably be blamed on the print they transferred from, rather than the disc itself. Coneheads is divided into a mere 13 chapters and is stored on a single-layered disc containing 4.4 gigabytes of data. Although graced with a new Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack, Coneheads' audio fares little better than its video. The soundtrack, while typically good, tended to become a little harsh at times.
Dialogue is clear with a minimum of background static.
Also on the disc are English and French 2.0 Surround tracks, plus English subtitles and Closed Captioning data. It's obvious there's a wealth of deleted scenes stored somewhere that would have made interesting DVD fodder. But as it is, Coneheads will only appeal to fans of the original movie or SNL skits.
