There's a great full page review of the Blu-ray in the latest issue of Empire (#266 August) for anyone interested. Mostly about the film (****), with a little dedicated to the features (****). No mention of the transfer (as is quite typical in print media these days), although they do say *possible spoiler; I wouldn't consider it to be, but just to be safe* the 360 shot of Roberston which jumps the story forward in time (00:21:25), is a Blu-ray showcase moment.

And how can you not love a movie where all of the detectives are named after cheeses, including Inspector Brie?
I don't think I noticed this before, I'm quite looking forward to re-watching this now.

Good to see a lesser-known but well-deserved title getting such a comprehensive set of bonus material.

I've just uploaded my review. It is a superb set with the book as excellent supplementary reading.

Just got my package today, and it's probably (excluding Battle Royale) my favourite packages Arrow BD yet. Exquisite stuff!

I watched this the other night, and was mightily impressed both with the HD transfer and the package as a whole.

For anyone who has never seen the film before, it's a superbly tense little mystery thriller full of solid performances. Highly recommended.

I would have thought that this title would of been more at home on the Arrow World or Arrow Films label though.
