Animephile Rating: C (7.5)
- Video Scan Type : progressive (-0.0) -
Actually, it's really hard to tell because the stream is somewhat
inconsistent. Fortunately, feathering rarely occurs.
- Aspect Handling : letterbox-WIDE (-2.5) -
1.85:1 Too bad it's not anamorphic.
- Compression : -0.0 -
Well, there are some blocky-ness, but it's an old source. I'll be nice.
- Video Separation : -0.0 -
There might be a little. It looks good enough, though.
- Scene Transition : -0.0
- Calibration : -0.0
Comments:
This is a must-buy. Something nice like this doesn't come around too
often, in my opinion. Audio, even though stereo, is very flat.
Dialogs are all mono. No biggy. It's an old movie anyway. The fact
it is an all-region DVD should interest some people. By the way, did
you notice it's only single-layer? It just shows that throwing more
bits at the problem isn't the answer. This disc is extremely well
compressed! Kudos to WAMO. (Disc says "Mastered by WAMO.")

Second image is just a nice view.
