The script is tight and literate, so characters rarely say or do stupid things. It does an admirable job of luring you into its web. There are a lot of contrasts in the film, and the digital transfer respects each and every one and never wavers. The overall look of the image is terrific, from the sharp images to the well balanced color that never bleeds. No problem with compression artifacts, while attention to detail is amazing considering how much of the film is low lit.
Blacks are superior, never losing their opaqueness.
Flesh tones are very appealing and lifelike, while the rest of the palette looks natural. Depth of field is okay, while a pristine master allows for a clean print with pure whites. Excellent English 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround Creepy soundtrack finds a good home on the digital mix, which manages to put you in the middle of the events. Rear speakers find plenty to do, while the basses are used for effect. The entire range of sound is clean, while the high ends literally purr with perfection.
