Only watched the first two so far, but picture quality on the first film was a bit underwhelming to say the least. It's not terrible, but considering how sharp and vibrant older films such as The Thing are, it always disappoints me when later films with big budgets don't look as good. It's ok, better than the DVD, but not stunning. The second film looks a bit better.
Looks like the theatrical cut of the original to me, I didn't notice any gore I hadn't seen before and the camera still speeds towards drew Barrymore hanging from the tree.
Some better Picture where u can see the spine @BDDB
I think this looks so cool with just the mask on the front. U just know what movie it is.
I will buy it later today in my Saturn!
