Please keep in mind that this is a 30+ year old, extremely low budget film. We're confident they did the transfer as best they could with what they had to work with. Hopefully this does not impede in your enjoyment of the film. We believe that the positives of this new HD transfer far outweigh any negatives. As there is no way to fix the damage to the negative, we are not able to issue replacement discs." DVD Exotica: Blue Underground's Hell of the Living Dead (Sound Issues and DVD/ Blu-ray Comparison) |
