RE: Dario Argento's Three Mothers Trilogy.

DJ, did you look into the Australian release? If so, anything of interest there? While I understand its from the same munted master as all the rest, I've read suggestions that it has its own unique peculiarities and isn't a direct port of the other discs.

Hmmm. Some fella over at the blu-ray.com forums posted screens from the Aussie version of some of the notorious problem shots. Perhaps you could tell from these whether or not they correlate with any other source out there?

Some of them roughly match the shots here:

I know that a few people took my Suspria and ripped the audio, posting it online for others to use. A few took that, made their own and took credit for it. Whatever. No big whoops. I just wish they'd give credit where credit is due. 

For me, credit goes to drsd2kill. He's the man. he made Suspiria happen. Without him, it wouldn't have happened.

 

Hey DJ, PM sent back-

ahhhhh thanks for posting that name. Hey DJ that anchor bay with laserdisc audio was from Matt's friend. Hey Matt I was talking with your friend quite a bit concerning the My bloody valentine dvd, though on the imdb.com forums I go by a different name than Tranzor

Thanks for those, I wish there were the same screenshots available of the Japanese release for comparison, because as of now we are liking the Japanese better, by any chance at blu-ray.com is there these same screens for the Japanese release?

Thanks again

 

some more info for you

Not for nothin' but some guy on Youtube put his 35mm IB Tech screening up in its entirety and besides a flicker on this video transfer due to the mismatch of frame-rates between camera (30fps) and projector (24fps), the damn thing is pretty cool.  I'd never seen this film (I know, I know) but you guys got me curious.  So I just watched the whole thing and man, it was awesome.

I guess the colors are right at least.

Especially at 41:00 on, when Daniel (the blind pianist) enters the school and then when the child is attacked by his dog (note how there is none of the hot pink, nor color bleeding such as on the UK blu-ray).

Dark Jedi: have you or You_Too thought of contacting this guy?

It would be price prohibitive to go so far as scan sections of his print.

RE: Dario Argento's Three Mothers Trilogy.

Know that the main focus of this thread so far seems to have been Suspria, but how does the French Wild Side release of Inferno compare to the US and the Koch? I plan on picking it up since I'm going there soon. (I also might end up ordering the German BD too if the quality is not satisfactory enough though.)

EDIT: Just realized I can't pick up the German even if I wanted to. I'm not region free sadly enough. So, it seems the Wild Side would really be great if someone could verify it's all right.

Hello. I too have the Image LD, albeit elsewhere. It'll be awhile before I can dig it up. That said, there's a local guy who does great LD transfers, including digital out captures at 44.1kHz. I have several other LDs I need him to transfer. When I finally get a chance to get the remaining LDs I want ripped, I'll check back and see if anybody still needs a rip.

 

By the way, I have an unrelated request. Can anybody help me acquire a Japanese DVD? It's only available via third parties at Amazon Japan, so somebody would need to have it shipped to Japan and then ship it to me. (None of them will ship outside Japan.) I'm more than happy to pay all costs, plus a little extra for their time.

 

Thanks.

@flashback8: I've bought DVDs from Japan before through this site: http://www.i-tm4u.biz

They're very friendly and helpful and if I remember correct they can buy basically anything for you, of course with a fee for being middlehand but it's worth it.

Thanks! I had never heard of them. I just paid for the DVD. Hopefully everything goes smoothly.

Matt_Stevens, your celebrated Suspiria project isn't still available at this time is it?  Would love to see that one as I never got a chance... either way looking forward to this one as well.

It's around but I have not seeded it in years. Working on a BluRay version.
