The cast also includes Chris Elliott, William Jordan, Richard Tyson and Lin Shaye in an unforgettable performance. The wide screen transfer isn't likely to make anyone's jaw drop, but it has a very pleasing image, with respectable levels of sharpness and detail. Colors are very nice, with solid saturation and natural flesh tones. All traces of chroma noise and compression artifacts remained in check throughout the presentation. The Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack delivers good sound, but the mix isn't showy.
Music is a big part of the soundtrack, which the DVD reproduces beautifully.
Dialogue is clean, always intelligible and focused in the center channel. The surround channels are used sparingly, but they provide a nice level of ambience and occasional effects. Subtitles are available in English and French. The interactive menus have an amusing design that utilizes animation, music and sound effects. Through the menus one can access the standard scene and language selection features, as well as the DVD's extras.
