An early review (linked in the review thread) with screenshots, shows the pre-credit sequence in B&W, in all previous releases it has been in sepia tone. What's up with this? Last edited by ytsejam1138; 20th February 2011 at 05:26 PM. |

I made comparison shots from the US Grindhouse DVD for the screenshots in the Rock! Shock! Pop! review: imgur. com/a/MLFAQ Some quick observations: -Huge increase in detail and clarity on Arrow's video. -A little more picture information on the Arrow release too. -Not sure about color and brightness. Arrow reveals details lost on the Grindhouse DVD, but might be too bright. I projected a 35mm print of The Beyond a few years ago, and seem to remember it looking more like Grindhouse. And the intro was definitely sepia! |

Yeah, the intro is supposed to be in SEPIA and not B/W  Better fix this before release, Arrow. But I guess it´s too late now

Any word on why the intro has been transferred in B&W?

Nothing that has come my way and I actually haven't seen the new release yet! If and when I find out, I'll let you know.

The guys at Arrow must have seen this movie before and should know that the opening scene has ALWAYS (except the rare geman version) been in sepia. Hoping for an answer from the guys soon. Other than that, the release seems to have an excellent transfer judging from the rest of the screenshots.

All I can do is ask to find out why the opening is in monochrome and not sepia. As far as the picture quality goes, I haven't watched the film in its entirety yet, only flicked through various scenes, and it does look to be an outstanding transfer with plenty of detail, good colours and deep contrast levels.
