Hey everyone! 

I've been recently enjoying the German SDR UHD of Texas Chain Saw Massacre and the 2K Shout BD of Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2. Does anyone have any insight if there are better audio tracks for those two releases, or are the BD tracks all right?

I know that Shout is generally all right at audio releases but I have no idea about the German UHD.

Curious if anyone has checked out the laserdisc or older DVDs.

(also airing again 28th)

I got my ticket and will be attending.
Its one of the few times the movie has been screened since 1983, most recently in England.
I hope Quentin will be around. Maybe some cast&crew could randomly show up?


interestingly another one of my fav movies same night!->

Is anyone able to get the monaural soundtrack from the UHD disk of Singin in the Rain?

Have been interested in fan edits, fan extended editions, and fan preservations of bonus material for quite a long time. Well over 15 years. Figured on finally making an account here instead of lurking on the main site.

Hi there,
I have long been a lurker here and thought I would finally introduce myself. I'm a huge fan of the man projects assembled here. You all are doing incredible work, and I hope to contribute some work one day, as well. As physical media becomes more important every day, and studios abandon restorations of films, it's a great comfort to know there are so many lovers of film who are picking up the slack and assembling great restorations.

6 must-own films from the Columbia Pictures library debut on 4K Ultra HD disc in a collectible limited edition gift set—including an 80-page book about the included films and a bonus disc featuring a full miniseries. The limited edition gift set includes fully remastered 4K UHD disc debuts for IT HAPPENED ONE NIGHT, FROM HERE TO ETERNITY, TO SIR WITH LOVE, THE LAST PICTURE SHOW, ANNIE (1982) and AS GOOD AS IT GETS – the only way to get these movies on 4K UHD.

Just wanted to introduce myself and say hello! Like everyone here I'm a film lover through and through and appreciate this community and the great work you all are doing purely out of love for movies.

I did a fan remaster a few months ago using the Blu-ray as the new video source. But since a special person (you know who you are ) had shared a 35mm scan of the movie, I thought "Why not make sort of 35mm trailer out of it." ... So I've synced the print to the BD and then simply replaced it and voila a 35mm fan remaster.
Okay, it's not perfect for two reasons...
1. The movie title is the final ones from the movie itself. Only the animation was done by me
2. The "I'm a pig" scene was source from the SD trailer found on the DVD.

The credit cards and MPAA card have been created from scratch and matched to the original.

I still think both versions turned out nicely. It would be nice to get my hands on the actual 35mm print of the trailer to insert the "I'm a pig" shot in higher quality. Maybe one day this may happen.

Anyway... Here is my remaster/restoration



In case you've missed it, here is the version using the BD

When it comes to extracting, converting and injecting HDR10+ or Dolby Vision metadata into a static HDR10 video, I wouldn't have a clue. Is there a GUI-friendly method of doing it these days? If so, is it even a good idea? Would the results remain accurate?

The new 4K release of Heat has quite dark day-time scenes. I haven't looked into it yet, but there is a 2160p WEB-DL from Amazon available with HDR10+. Was wondering whether it might improve things if that metadata could be pinched and injected into the 4K disc.

Does anyone happen to have the HDTV cap of Bram Stoker's Dracula? The one that was the master for the Superbit DVD. Many thanks in advance
