Code Red

[bdc]

Just finished watching Ring of Death aka Detective Belli (new Code Red dvd) and it looked good imho.
I don't think the source used is a release print btw because there's just some slight speckling here and there.
This is definitely the US theatrical version.

I enjoyed watching this again btw.

Just started on Blade and that one seems to be sourced from a release print,I guess that's why it has more scratches,lines etc.
Still perfectly watchable though if you grew up watching actual films in cinemas back in the days.
The look actually complements the film well,gives it an even edgier feel.

They took the transfers from European releases it seems.
In that case Whip should come from the EMS which looks better than the VCI.

The Whip and the Body - Bava

The whip and the body is the best quality release i've seen. Just wish we could get a dub with christopher lees voice!

Had no idea they were of dubious legality, either way both whip and beatrrice cenci look marvellous.

That's an old one!
Code Red was really struggling back then and Bill gets a bit excited.

Unfortunately, I can't listen to it properly as the sound on flap flop is ****ed.

10k Bullets aren't too complimentary regarding some of Code Red's recent releases.

Specifically The Killer Likes Candy and Haunted. Julie Darling is also mentioned as being a poor film but a good disc.

I loved Julie Darling...
