Unfortunately, their hasty exit freezes the Gates of Hell, which prevents damned souls from entering Hades and causes the reining King of Hell to begin decomposing. Of course, the only entity in existence that can save Satan is Little Nicky, who is promptly dispatched to the world above to bring his wayward brothers home. The image is so crisp it practically snaps and the level of detail is truly excellent. Colors are bold and strongly saturated, without a hint of instability.
Flesh tones appear wholly natural and very appealing.
Blacks are dead on perfect, plus the picture boasts superb depth and shadow detail. The film element used for the transfer is pristine, without so much as a stray speck anywhere. Sound effects move around effortlessly through the spacious sonic environment. At times, split surround activity can be pronounced, but it still maintains a cohesive presence with the forward soundstage. Dialogue reproduction is very clean and fully intelligible, despite Sandler's bizarre vocal inflections as Little Nicky.
