Bloody hell, I couldn't get through 5 minutes of that without getting a headache!

You can see more comparisons on this page, just scroll down:

imieibluray: Suspiria

That is horrific, I'm guessing the UK edition is from the same master right?

Are you mad? I watched my own anus in the mirror the other day and it looks WAY much better than the blu-ray!

Unfortunately I'm not in the privileged position to make such a comparison. PM please, jpeg is fine :)

HA!

The UK Suspiria BD is a tiny bit too red. But it's fine and perfectly watchable. (When I screen it, I turn the "Colour" control on my telly down two or three points. I can live with that.)

The screencap comparisons on the page linked above clearly show the BD to be preferable to me.

I'm the master of comparison and i've already made my decision so you can forget any PM from me.

You dirty dirty :nono:

;)

A tiny bit red. Oh dear.

Since when did asphalt and concrete turn pink? Oh yes, in that magnificent world of crappy blu-ray shit whore....

Yes, looks bad there. The DVD however, also looks pale and washed out.

The other comparisons look far less bad for the BD but just as bad for the DVD.

I will give you the benefit of the doubt over your insults and presume they were not directed at me personally.

At least the cover was printed OK. So what do you care?

And you talk about people insulting you? I care very much actually. The BD looks awful.

No

I actually think the BD looks pale and the DVD is much more preferrable to the BD.

I would never insult anyone with those words because of his taste. I like you, i thought you knew that ;)

Do you know what.

I am very sorry Stephen.

I have let external issues make me act like a dick on here.

I am sorry to Stephen, Return and you all.

No problem mate. We all get like that sometimes. I know I have.

That's why I love cult labs. Even when things threaten to turn less than friendly in the heat of the moment it always gets resolved amicably and promptly. No grudges.

Incidentally, and on topic somewhat, was the Amsterdamned release a new master? The DVD said something about it being supervised by the director, or was that also the case with the Nouveaux release?

And pooh said:
Let's just ignore those stupid BDs.

And they all lived happily ever after.

Great review of Suspira here:

Land of Whimsy

Me too! :nod:

Totally agree. It may not look the way it looked in the theatres back in the day - but Suspiria on BD looks pretty damn good, me thinks! :coolblue:

Greetings!

Watch Frankenstein Junior, To Catch A Thief, or Peeping Tom on Blu-ray, and say that again! :coolblue:

Greetings!

and the review i posted?

Yes, the colours are frustrating, but I get over after bout the first 20 minutes, but what frustrated me, was some kind of wierd grain in certain scenes, like one scene with the head of the school talking to Suzie, and it looks like there are flies crawling all over her face! :shocked:

I must have to watch it again as I really enjoyed the presentation of it.

Has there been any official word that a BD might be on the cards, or is it speculation?

Sorry, but really love this film and find the fact we've still not got a BD of it mighty frustrating.

No, just speculation. Though a number of arrows point in that direction. The Q2 line up will be comprised of BDs or DFs indicating a number of possible re-releases upgrading to HD and Opera is amongst the most requested from members here to get an upgrade. Not that theyll listen or anything! :pound:

Thanks, bud. I don't log in so often so miss little nuggets like this.

I was refering to those crappy Suspira BDs Prince ;)

Peeping Tom looks good but it would look much better without the mild use of DNR.

Completely agree with this. There are enough versions of the current restoration going around that another use of it for the potential Shameless release would be redundant. If anyone prefers the most recent restoration there are plenty of versions of it on Blu-ray, I don't see why anyone hoping for a new one more in tone with how the film has looked since it's inception would hurt anyone.

The trouble is I worry Shameless would never be able to afford the fees for a new restoration. I think a Kickstarter would be met with lots of skepticism too. Perhaps they could co-fund it with another region, but it's widely available in a lot of places and it's an issue only core fans will really take to heart.

What we need is a version of Suspiria that emulates how it looked on Technicolor prints.

Incidentally, what IS considered the best release of Suspiria? Japanese?

UK version i think......but that is very poor also.

For anyone who missed my link to this great review:

http://www.landofwhimsy.com/archives...ownright-ugly/

There's also a recent French one: Land of Whimsy

Alright, Shameless. I've mentioned this before I think, but how about Let's Scare Jessica to Death.

I was just gazing lovingly at my DVD.

:confused: Where is this version from?

It's a fan edited version made up of different elements/sources to try and get it as spot on as possible.

Where is the source material from?:confused:

From various, whether it's SD/DVD, HD/BD or even Laserdisc/VHS when it comes to missing footage or audio in some circumstances. I'm not sure how widely they're allowed to be discussed here as they're essentially bootlegs but of a particular kind put together by people with a lot of love for the films in the attempt to create the best composite version around generally. The work that's gone into the Evil Dead one over the years is quite amazing.

So the source of this one could be some SD material.
