Third, supplements are so minimal, that most standard releases from other companies contain more extras. With that said, let s get to the disc at hand. Color reproduction is strong, with well-saturated hues and realistic looking flesh tones. Neither chroma noise nor bleeding affected the hot colors, especially the reds, which can be problematic. Blacks are a deep inky black and the image has excellent contrast.
Film grain is apparent in places, but it never really calls attention to itself.
Dual layer technology, as well as the higher bit rate it provides keeps digital compression artifacts at bay. The Dolby Digital 5.1 channel soundtrack has a simple, but effective mix that makes good use of the discrete format. There is good channel separation in both the front and the rear. Sound effects are well placed, which creates a genuinely foreboding atmosphere. Dialogue is very clean and always remains intelligible.
