'Southern Comfort', via the Second Sight blu.
One of my absolute favourites from my teens/vhs days, even the cover stirs certain emotions - was one of my late dad's favourites as well and he introduced it to my brother and I back in the vhs rental days.
My emotional attachment aside, this still stands as a great film in my opinion. Reminds me a lot of The Thing - group of men, hostile location, mostly unseen enemy.
I know a lot see it as a Deliverance rip off, but I think it's a better film than Deliverance. Much better.
Bluray looked great, to my untrained eye. In fact, apart from a couple of brief scenes, I thought it looked amazing.
I can't fault the film, so 5/5 from me.
