Was wondering kj650 if you could do a regrade on the Dracula 79 Bluray bringing  back the colors of the original version before the Director decided to mess around with them and almost make them monochrome. I requested it over on another forum but didn't get a reply. Would think it would be a good project for your amazing skills.

I've had a look at the blu-ray screencaps for Dracula 79 on blu-ray.com and I believe it's too far gone, there is basically no colour to speak of in that transfer, no way to bring back the original colours using that transfer IMHO, you'd need access to the footage before it was graded.

 There was someone on the forum there that said if you pump up the colors and change a few other things it basically can be brought back, I believe they included some screenshots of this in practice and compared them to the old vhs copy and it looked pretty spot on. Maybe you could have a look with your amazing skills and tools at your disposal.

I've had a look at the comparisons of this film on caps-a-holic and the blu-ray looks the same as the DVD in terms of colour. Can you point me to some screencaps showing how you feel this film is meant to look colourwise? It would give me a better idea of whether there is anything I can do in this case.
