Halloween
Picture Quality: Sound Quality:		Media:  Rating:  Format: Widescreen / Fullscreen  Case: Keep Case  Runtime: 92 min  Region: 1  Disc Type: SS-DL  16:9 support: Y  Number of Discs: 1  Macrovision:    Audio 1: English (Dolby Digital 5.1)  Audio 2: This is a completely new 2.35:1 transfer from a new 35mm interpositive made from the original camera negative and approved by the film's cinematographer Dean Cundey. Award-winning colorist Adam Adams helmed the transfer under the overall supervision of Lucasfilm's THX Digital Mastering services. The anamorphically enhanced DVD, viewed in component video, exhibits a solid picture with almost no noise. Of course, the picture is dark, being a horror film; but viewed in a completely blackened room, the picture exhibits excellent contrast and shadow delineation. Colors are accurately rendered with good definition. Other than the film grain and minor artifacts throughout, the picture is pleasing and the transfer is clean. The all new Chace Digital Stereo rendering of the original frightening monaural theatrical soundtrack is thrilling. The Dolby® Digital 5.1 discrete soundtrack was created by Chace Productions in association with Alan Howarth, using the original 16-track music studio master and the recently discovered original 35mm magnetic dialogue and effects tracks. The sound is incredibly effective with fresh clarity, dynamics and spatial dimension not realized on past releases. The remastered discrete soundtrack is remarkably effective and one of the best restorations ever produced using original sound elements. The opening thunderstorm scene will have you crawling in your seat. Dialogue clarity has been effectively restored though monaural, and at times directionalized for effect. Carpenter's music score is incredibly spooky and the recording quality is absolutely superb, with effective aggressive surround envelopment and deep bass extension enhanced with .1 LFE. Slight hum is apparent throughout, but not distracting and overall, the original soundtrack noise has virtually been eliminated. The new ambient sound effects are effectively spread throughout the channels to create, at times, an engaging holosonic soundfield. The sonics are more eerie and engaging than ever, and will have you graving for someone to hold on to. • THX Certified • Theatrical trailer(s), TV spot(s) • "Halloween Unmasked 2000" Featurette • Photo/Still Gallery

Halloween 5- Limited Edition Tin
Picture Quality: Sound Quality:		Media:  Rating:  Format: Widescreen anamorphic - 1.85:1 Full Screen (Standard) - 1.33:1  Case: Box Set  Runtime: 97 min  Region: 1  Disc Type: SS-DL  16:9 support: Y  Number of Discs: 1  Macrovision:    Audio 1: English (Dolby Digital 5.1)  Audio 2: The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD exhibits generally good quality, though the picture occasionally looks older than it actually is. Images can be nicely detailed on occasion, but are most often softly focused. Colors are generally well balanced, with nicely rendered fleshtones, though blacks are weak and undefined. While contrast is quite good, visuals in the darker scenes often lack definition. Film grain and artifacts are evident. There are minor distractions in the way of pixelization and edge enhancement. The remastered Dolby® Digital 5.1-channel discrete soundtrack is somewhat dated-sounding but nonetheless offers a spatially active soundfield. At reference level, the sonic character is slightly strident. Alan Howarth's music score convincingly immerses the listener and provides the emotional foundation. The surrounds are predominantly mono, but nonetheless provide substantial envelopment, namely during moments of heightened intensity. Deep bass is noticed but not particularly distinguished. • Theatrical trailer(s) • Limited Edition - 15,000 copies • Individually numbered and packaged in a collectible container • Inside Halloween 5 documentary featuring rare, behind-the-scenes footage, a cut scene, and interviews with Danielle Harris, Ellie Cornell, Executive producer Moustapha Akkad, cinematographer Rob Draper, and Don Shanks (Michael Myers) • Introduction by Danielle Harris and Ellie Cornell • 5" X 7" Theatrical poster replica

Halloween H20: 20 Years Later
Picture Quality: Sound Quality:		Media:  Rating:  Format: Widescreen - 2.35:1  Case: Keep Case  Runtime: 86 min  Region: 1  Disc Type: SS-SL  16:9 support: N  Number of Discs: 1  Macrovision: N    Audio 1: English (Dolby Digital 5.1)  Audio 2: Commentary The non-anamorphic 2.30:1 DVD is dark, but blacks are a shade deeper for truer, more natural shadow delineation. Images are sharp and detailed, with nicely rendered fine detail, though minor aliasing problems are apparent. Colors are rich and warm with naturally rendered fleshtones. This movie must be viewed in a completely blackened room for optimal visual information in the darkest scenes. The 5.1-channel Dolby® Digital soundtrack may have been processed with Re-EQ. Otherwise, fidelity and spatial character are exceptionally rendered. The surrounds are discrete and effectively directional, with excellent low level ambient resolution. Dialogue sounds perfectly natural with excellent spatial integration. The music score is spatially expansive, wrapping into the surrounds. Bass extends deep with .1 LFE that intensifies the thrills. The soundfield is holosonic with exemplary coherency. Production notes Theatrical trailer(s) Featurette: Unmasking The Horror Music Video Trivia Game
