Do you have many 35mm films?
Thanks. I currently only have three, the first struck print for Fulci's 7 Doors Of Death, When A Stranger Calls (able to get it for a bargain), and Halloween.

It's an original theatrical print. If the colors look great in those screenshots to you then that's ok. To each his own. It's pretty obvious that the colors have been tinkered with to make it look just a little more drabby, cool and dare I say, modern? The same thing was done to The Fog although I've never had the pleasure of seeing that in a cinema. The old blu ray is no great shakes either though. The colors have been boosted and some sloppy dnr has been applied. My good friend said he will get this blu ray so I'll borrow it from him and make my final judgement then.
