| Picture: The picture was presented in 2.35:1 ratio Anamorphic Widescreen and looked far better than what I expected going into watching it. All too often, low budget monster movies from Japan-especially those made in the 1960's, look lousy. While there were some obvious print flaws such as dirt, scratches and other minor nuisances, they were not nearly as prevalent as older movies are known for. Overall, the movie looked crisp and clear considering the nature of the release. The dvd transfer showed some care too and that's impressive considering the limited market this one was designed for.
Sound: The sound was presented in 2.0 Japanese Dolby Digital with English subtitles. The vocals were clear and the music score, in keeping with it's cheesy nature, appropriate to the subject matter. It wouldn't win any awards but it was better than average for a rubbersuit movie from it's time period.
Extras: trailers, including the US and Japanese versions of the feature |
