I had never watch this film but I was intriged with the cast and the storyline. Imprint seems to not do restoration but releases what the studios provide. This is one of those stiuations here. A fair transfer, but could have been so much better. the colors were good but the contrast and gray scale was too high. And not dlivering the blacks that the scenes badly needed. Maybe if I see it more than once I'll gain greater insight? The premis is fun and with actors like James Spadrer, Mandy Patinkin, Charels Durning, Joel Gray and the always great M Emmett Walsh as the caretaker...the possibilites are there. Upon first veiwing, it left me with more questions than answers...and there seemed to be much of the storyline and character development left on the cutting room floor??
