Shimmer also becomes apparent in a few scenes that show strongly patterned backgrounds and foregrounds. Edge enhancement is obvious at times, but only on occasion. Given the age of this film, I'm amazed to see that there wasn't more in the way of aged-related print defects. All in all, not too bad. It gets the job done, but provides little else in the way of excitement.
Dialogue is distinct, but just a tad on the quiet side.
Bass response is okay, but is somewhat shallow and ineffective. Harry Manfredini provided the music for almost all of the Friday the 13th films. His score is highly derivative of Bernard Herrmann's work, but manages to create mood and aid in producing a few scares. On the whole, the sound quality is acceptable. The good news is that it's been given anamorphic enhancement.
