Hi everyone,

This deffinately doesn't hold up the standard that Centropy was noted for, it was that standard that lead them to first use that intro on their 2002 Spiderman release, while everyone else was... lets say, "on the down low" , due to a series of unfortunate events that year, hence the theme and content of the intro, (note the HP title).
Whoever wrote this was an older intro is correct except they were actually doing both VCD's and SVCD's, remember the SVCD standard was relatively new.

HypoLuxa, on their very next release, after they used this intro, they used the 64 start up screen, it was very funny, considering. For the life of me I can't remember what that release was though.

Hi evryone,

HypoLuxa, hi,

What I mean by "relatively new", is that the final world SVCD Standard had only came out 3 years prior, ( late September of '98), and the TDX rules were established the year of that release, (2002).

I remember in 98-99, Centropy was also doing avi's and their biggest competition was TCF then.
I didn't mean that the 64 screen was first used after this intro, I was just saying that after this beautiful intro the next release featured the 64 screen which was funny to my friends and I, because we knew alot of good groups had been taken out of the picture, and no one was releasing anything then. It appeared as if there was one last member in a closet somewhere with a 64 saying to himself, (and the powers that be), "See, you can't stop us", lmao.

Seen better ts, nice job centropy

I actually quite enjoyed this movie. I even enjoyed the fact that it was dark & grainy... kinda reminded me of the good old days of horror movies. Certainly alot better than the lame PG-13 excuses for horror that have been coming out lately. Definatly one for fans of old school horror.

::EDIT:: You Sir, are a fucking moron! Do you think we all get our stuff from the same source as you? Do you even have the faintest idea of how releases are spread and how your beloved Torrent site is probably about 4 tiers down the "pecking order" when it comes to who/what gets releases first. Fuck me sideways, some posts on here can actually damage your IQ I've even had to post a link to this thread in the IRC channel so people will believe how utterly retarded your post is! - Neversoft::

::EDIT 2:: Oh, and your post breaks the posting rules... Not commenting on the release in the release thread is a bannable offence but I think you've suffered enough - Neversoft::

too much red/green pixels in the dark scenes, and this is a very dark movie! Either they used a crappier camera than usual or they fucked up on the encoding (Probably the first tho). Sound is OK, no better or worse than other TS's at thew moment. Definetly the worst CTP TS release I can remember seeing. Note to Centropy tho, the Nobody does it better intro is old in more than one way , Saosin and VideoCD have been doing it as good if not better many times in the last few years, so dump it and get on with doing what you DID best. 6/7/?

I converted this to dvd then watched on my 27" TV.

Video - dark and grainy - 7

audio - a bit of a hiss - 7

movie - crap - 4

This is not CTP's best work, but thank them for the best release out.

Nice Release, Thought The Movie Was Going To Be A Little Better Than Expected, Oh Well.
8/8/5

Video very grainy, sound is good.

6/8/6

Almost unwatchable, v disappointing from Centropy - 3/7/? (only watched first disc so far). Too many green/purple blobs all over the screen, seeing as almost the entire movie is set 'in the dark' it's a bit problem. Whoever is giving it high scores to average it over 7 for picture is blind!

Pretty good

Video: 8

Movie: 7

Definately a tad dark, but then fiddling with the brightness and contrast on my TV worked. It seemed a bit grainy, and so I would have given the vifeo a 7.5 if possible. Sound was nice and clear, although I thought I picked up a low frequency hum at the beginning of CD1. The movie seemed like early 70's. All in all, quite enjoyable.

thanks for the release.

sound was fine. great job! video was lacking. way too dark..couldnt make out many scenes..took away from moment.
movie itself was better than expected. seeing hilton with a pole thru her head was classic. movie reminded me of rob zombies house of 1000 corpses..
overall, good job centropy!

house of wax

audio 7 video 5 movie 3

the video was really dark in places and pixilation was there also
audio was ok not up to centropys standard but props go out for
release of this below par movie.



a rolling stone gathers no moss

I think some could have done it better lol.
Was kinda dark but it is a dark film, bet this was a hard one.
Also seemed kinda washed out.

6/6/? Nice 2 c u bk, Better luck next time.

video is way too dark

Im not complaining but wathced the whole movie, the day seens were perfect, but most of the movie is filmed at night and very hard to see anything, would give it a 5 for video 9 for sound

Just got around to watching this last night and thought the movie wasn't bad. Better than I expected. Watching on standalone the dark scenes were very hard to make out especially the bit in the house were the first guy got it, I couldn,t see fuck all.

6/7/7

Be honest

The hole point of this sight is to give a guide of the quality of a movie. I watched this i see that its not up to much, its not a case of this is great cause its free, i am well aware that its free and yeah i love that its free, but i dont need to be reminded, People that watch these movies, why don't u rate them honestly not being afraid that you'll hurt centropys's feelings. tell it like it is be critical. DO IT

Movie is clearly bad compared to centropy of old.

V - 6
A - 4
M - 4

Come on lets pick it up keep it real.

decent quality both video and audio... movie was ok... reminded me of the chainsaw masacre... only no where near as good

8/8/7

Decient release, could have been better compared to what Centropy has released in the past...

The movie itself has a dark picture, so increasing the brightness on this didn't really do any good, just makes it look more grainy, IMO. First 5 or so mins of the movie look excellent, but when the dark scenes come in, the brightness fixes take away some of the effect and decrease the quality.

Audio is good for what was available... I hope someone figures out how to crack those new DTS formats.

Video: 7
Audio: 7
Movie: 8

This is a decient release, but I'd try to wait a bit longer to see if something better comes out.

OK I love haveing accesses to free mobie , really I aprecaite it ...I d/led house of wax and it was pretty good quality good sound ..a lil dark ...but am I noticed it was missing the first bit of the movie ...that also happend with a few others I got form centropy ?? is this happing to everyone ..or just me ?
