Caligula is a film with notoriously poor visual quality, with Newsweek saying that it "seemed to have been filmed through a tub of Vaseline"

Arrow don't add DNR as they don't have the time and resources. Any DNR that is there existed on the master Arrow used -- something they didn't see before paying for it.

Blue Underground is a much bigger company than Arrow with a bigger audience, deeper pockets and more tools at their disposal. There is no universal agreement that every BU picture is better than its Arrow counterpart, with some preferring the picture on a Arrow BD to the BU one.
