Title: Blu-Ray is top notch!
Product review: This Blu-Ray looks great for a 30 year old exploitation film. New York City circa 1980 was never looked sleazier and Blue Underground's transfer looks great. The video looks like a 35mm print, complete with a bit of grain and lots of detail. In other words, it's near perfect for what it is.....The extras are minor but a nice addition.The film....love it, hate it, laugh at it....Personally, I feel it's Fulci goofing on Dario Argento. Argento's films have pretty lighting and make murder look artistic. With "New York Ripper" Fulci serves up sleazy characters, gaudy lighting and makes violence look gruesome and horrible. There's also the quacking, Donald Duck-voiced killer, another poke at giallo convention that typically has a raspy voiced killer making threatening phone calls.It's 2nd tier Fulci, but definitely worth a look if you have the stomach for it or are a fan of Euro-cult and exploitation films.
