This Studio-Canal release of 'Escape from new york'...
Badly upscaled from the DVD, then DNR'd, then sharpened, so it actually looks much lower resolution than the DVD. Such a disaster that Amazon just gave me my money back without even asking me to bother returning the disc. By far and away the worst BR I've seen to date.
Just looking at that atrocious cover convinces me its a shoddy release.
