Negative Positive
Title: Bad video quality
Review: This movie is great, I would rate it about 4 to 4.5 stars. This review, at two stars, is about the DVD release from "Substance".The DVD is 4:3 full screen, cropping the movie's original aspect ratio of 1.78:1. There are no extras on this DVD, barely even a menu. The video looks like it has been taken from a second-generation VHS tape. The colors are bleeding and are overly saturated. Everything looks mushy.I'm not sure why they did not do this right. The very next DVD in their lineup, Peter Jackson's "Bad Taste", looks great. It has a crisp 1.66:1 aspect ratio image in an anamorphic frame, and it contains a 25 minute making-of featurette. Why could they not give this Peter Jackson movie the same treatment?
