Perhaps that is why Vincenzo was the only character to appear into the second film and short lived television series. I've seen the movie on television about twenty times and I've seen the old Fox Laserdisc, both pale in comparison to this release. Color reproduction on the DVD is a revelation. Instead of the washed out hues that I've grown accustomed to over the years, colors are vibrant and natural looking. Anchor Bay has also upped the ante in the resolution department.
Image quality is great.
The Dolby Digital monaural soundtrack is clean and crisp with Bob Cobert's highly recognizable music sounding better than I've ever heard it. Tony Vincenzo, now the editor for a Seattle newspaper, tries to make amends by offering Kolchak a job. With no other options, Kolchak takes the position and finds himself assigned to the story of a strangled exotic dancer. Kolchak covers the story, but uncovers lurid details covered by no other reporter. First there is the fact that there was the residue of rotted flesh found on the neck of the victim.
