Dracula 1979 remastered
A classic title on Blu Ray. Nice transfer. As per Director John Badham's desire, when this was first put on VHS and subsequently DVD, The colours were heavily toned down. He wanted to shoot it in Black and White, but was over ruled, so this was the compromise. I saw this in the cinema at the time, and remember the colours were very strong, so seeing the slightly washed out palet takes a bit of getting used to. A 5.1 Audio mix would have been nice, but otherwise a great film.
