Quote from jmorrow1988 :
None of the RLJ discs have HDR grading and I actually bought this disc for that very reason. HDR is still a mess of a format and I've seen some really bad implementations. I will say it can be pretty impactful when properly done, but the average consumer display still can't hit 1000 nits and tone-mapping hasn't quite been perfected yet.
What is an example of a bad HDR implementation besides BR 2049 Stick Out Tongue. Also both my 4K TV's have over 1000 nits.

sounds like they're generalizing? the few bad hdr jobs I've seen are jurrassic park 1, step brothers, and the web version of heat. can't think of anything else off the top of my head.

I have another RLJ 4K release called "VFW". This was a blind buy, trying to build my 4K library. Really good movie, but the image quality sucked. It almost looked worse than DVD, oh and no HDR or Atmos. The DTS 5.1 did sound ok though.

No HDR or DV on 4k = No buy.

I thought it was ok, the production was better than the story because it didn't have much story. But watching this, I kept wondering if Steven king took the idea for creepshow from this one.

You need to watch more movies then -- this isn't that bad.

Now if you dislike it, that's of course your opinion and I won't argue the point.

But in a more general sense, it's 'okay', for what it is. I won't say it's even that good a movie, but it's an okay B-film.

As a Lovecraft adaptation, it's actually one of the better ones -- and your description of it as "a diseased dream someone would see when feverish or on drugs" is actually pretty accurate. Just that for those of us who have seen a zillion films, or those who don't mind more niche or weird cinema, that's not really a negative.

True, I actually enjoyed this too. As a Lovecraft fan from way back in my teens, I thought this was a good adaptation. Similar vein to Lovecraft Country, seems like it could almost be the same universe.

Watched the 4K disc last night... looked pretty good using my Panasonic DP-UB820 player on a 65" OLED. I suspect the Blu-ray would have looked about the same if watched through the same player.

I enjoyed it. It wasn't bad but it wasn't super-great either.... but it is another 4K disc to add to my 4K collection.
