We're working on definitive restored/remastered HD #Dracula1958 atm! Blu-ray next year! We were actually filming extras today! |
I saw this at the cinema projected digitally a year or so ago and the quality was amazing. A BD should be able to contain all that information, along with extra features, so the AV quality (hopefully) will be superb.

Although I really like the films they release, Final Cut have yet to go overboard with special features and haven't yet released anything in HD, so I'd be surprised if they have the rights for a release of this magnitude. Hopefully it will be the property of a company who, like Eureka or StudioCanal, has dealt with high-profile titles, Blu-ray releases and significant amounts of extra features.
