John Sturges' The Satan Bug, which has been released to Blu via Kino Lorber is one of the better man vs virus films.
Probably a major part of the fact that the film works, is John Sturges' solid grasp of the production and his actors. For those unaware, Mr. Sturges directed The Great Escape, The Magnificent Seven and Gunfight at the O.K. Corral, among many others.
He knows his "stuff."
As a Blu-ray, The Satan Bug is better than okay. The overall appearance of the film, at least to my eye, was ever so slightly soft. A less than stellar IP, possibly? Beyond that the normal minor problem of occasional dirt.
Overall, however, color and densities are quite good, and the disc is certainly works.
