I was really disappointed by the blu-ray Blue Underground released a few years back.

The color correction was horrible, and the black level was also wrong, with blacks that turned gray. It also looked like some DNR was used, since a 16mm movie like that should be grainy as hell.

I sold the Blu-Ray and bought the old THX Anchor Bay DVD instead, since it just looks better.

The ironi was that the trailer on the Blu-Ray looked amazing, more fine details, grain, correct colors and black level

I don't know how Bill Lustig could **** up the new transfer to his own movie.

So if another label picks this up, I hope they make a new 2K/4K transfer, or at least color correct the existing one.

Glad its not just me. I had a lot of people telling me I was unreasonable when I complained about the maniac blu-ray. The THX DVD looks beter.
