DVD Review HTF REVIEW: A Nightmare on Elm Street - Infinifilm Edition (Recommended) (1 Viewer)

[Xenia Stathakopoulou]

Someone over at the amazon.com customer reviews, says the tina deleted scene is not only on the infinifilm option , but also on 1 of the docs on disc2.Is he telling the truth, anyone checked ?

Ive recieved my dvd today and noticed something strange, maybe its my imagination but if you watch the film with the infinifilm option on the volume is alot lower,is the mono track used on this option ?Then when you turn off the option, its back to the 5.1 track.Anyway , i did notice as others have said a slight improvement in audio and video over the previous edition. Some of those deleted scenes that ive watched ,and alternate scenes are fun to see for the first time !

The color is really off and I think the old DVD is the better because it's closer to the Elite LD that was supervised by the DP, Jacques Haithin

Here is the Elite LD

While I noticed the difference, the transfer didn't bother me too much. The missing sound effects stuck out more to me.

Jacques Haitkin knows better than me but shouldn't the above scene be dark since Nancy is at the sleep clinic? They do turn off the lights when you go to bed at one of those places. There was a few scenes where I thought "Wow. This is much darker than the first transfer... but that actually makes more sense." Once again, Haitkin is more qualified than me to make that call though.

Maybe, but I do believe the old DVD and LD is closer to what he wanted.
This is the scene right before the screenscaps of her sleeping.

Look like the room is semi dark and not very dark and blue. But this maybe don't tell the whole story.
