2.0 Dolby Surround soundtracks and a commentary track that includes the participation of director John Carpenter and actor Kurt Russell. Disk Two contains a bevy of special features outlined below. If anyone has seen this movie either in VHS format or on television, they will be amazed at the improvements made with this new widescreen transfer. The film looks almost as sharp and detailed as if it were made yesterday. The many brilliant colors are perfectly saturated lending a crisp looking finish to the overall texture.
Flesh tones are clean and consistent throughout.
Depth of detail within the plethora of black garments worn by the multitude of Chinese fighters is superb. As mentioned in the review, the majority of this film takes place in dark surroundings and the detail is all there. There is some fine grain evident in a few scenes and a few soft images that are really the result of the property master s mist machines. I noticed a couple of specks during the first five minutes of the film, but such blemishes never occurred again. Other than that, the video quality is as good as it can be for a 1986 film.
