Title: Another lousy transfer from Fox!
Product review: Does anyone at Fox bother to look at their DVDs before they are released to the public?Just like with Fox's mediocre release of Mark of Zorro, starring Tyrone Power, in Kiss of Death there are compression artifacts -- check the bars on the holding cell when Brian Donlevy is talking to Victor Mature. Yet this is a dual-layer disc!As well, the print is >bad<. Notice the walls when Richard Widmark climbs to the top of the stairs prior to the film's most famous scene, as well as the walls in the room before he ties up the old lady and pushes her down the stairs -- there are what look like water blotches on the print. Terrible!The obnoxious ad for video piracy at the DVD's beginning accompanied by loud, ugly rock music also doesn't make a good impression.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
