Cult Labs - What Have You Bought Recently?

The thing with brightness puzzles me. Why do they need to brighten things? If the original print is dark then brightening it up makes it different to how it looked originally. It's just the same as George Lucas tinkering with Star Wars, but less devastating obviously.

In theory I agree with you, however (and I'm mainly thinking of low budget horror-fare here) this may be beneficial for certain films which were perhaps shot with cheap low-res cameras, in poorly lit studios or outside at night.

Burial Ground has been brightened for instance and looks all the better for it (in my opinion of course - others may be of the opinion that not being able to see certain things in Burial Ground is a blessing! :tongue1:)

Das Boot was in CEX. Poundland had stacks of copies of Haywire. Not seen it but for a quid it doesn't matter if its rubbish.

It's not rubbish at all. But it could be better.
