      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Normally, when you say that someone goes to hell, it

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD exhibits an appropriately dark picture that, when viewed in a completely blackened room, offers excellent shadow delineation and just enough visual information to visually heighten the horror and suspense. Images are sharp and nicely detailed, though some scenes appear slightly smeared. Edge enhancement is noticed, especially in the brighter scenes, and can be bothersome. There is also some discernable pixelization. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The 5.1-channel sound mix is a remastering effort, and the result is quite astounding and thought-provoking. To say that spatial engagement for this soundtrack is aggressive in nature is actually an understatement. The use of dimension, particularly for the surrounds is unusually distinct and prominent.

    Reason #36 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review because it’s simply the best A/V magazine available. No other magazine includes such a comprehensive discussion of developments and potential developments in the field, as well as a detailed analysis of systems and products available. Widescreen Review provides thorough and easy-to-follow “how to” sections in building and setting up home theatre and is the definitive authority on quality DVDs. No other magazine can beat all that. Kudos to Widescreen Review! I will never stop my subscription.
