While I don't normally like the dramatic work of Matthew Lillard, he did win me over here, although he's just not creepy enough to be scary. He's too silver spoons to be a really scary guy, but he does turn in one of his better performances in this movie. His goal is to make us hate him, and I sure as hell hated him, so I guess it worked. Other decent Lillard performances can be found in Senseless, Hackers, and She's All That. This is a very dark movie, so lots of blacks and dark blues are used, but the contrast remains well balanced throughout, with little detail lost.
Flesh tones appear natural, and colors when present look bright and distortion free.
I noticed some very minor compression errors, but that was all. The audio is usually in the front channels, but during some scenes, like the ones by the cliff, the surrounds pick up, and sound very good. The dialogue is clean and at a consistent volume, and this is a good audio experience, although a 5.1 track might have worked wonders. This release contains a trailer for this movie, as well as a bonus trailer for Phoenix.
