Title: Buried for years?? A great movie!!
Review: 1982. I challenge you to show this film to someone who has not heard of it; shouldn't be hard. Ask them at the end when they think it was made. Their answer will not be 1982. The video transfer is nothing short of genius, when you consider the age of the source. The audio is pretty good too. Did they have 5.1 back then? Don't think so. The film itself is a masterpiece of terror (I am not a Carpenter fan). The fact that the cast is all male adds tension, to an already taught situation. The casting for this film is spot on. Russell is excellent as "Macready" and Wilford Brimley's performance deserves a mention too. The last ingredient that makes this film a classic is the special effects work of Rob Bottin. Some of it looks too real.Oh and it also happens to have some of the best special features on any DVD to date.If you don't own it on DVD, then why do you even have a player?
