I love you Phat


8/8/* (probally 10!) been waiting ages for this


Posted by SilentAssassin on 05-11-2004 08:13 PM:

A very excellent release. Gotta be a first gen copy, no tape noise at all like you get with n'th gen copies.

Video is very crisp and colours are great, sound, well its from a vhs source so it could only be a stereo input.

Better yet only a month after theatre release and still riding high in the charts.

Didn't watch the original cam releases, thought the quality was dire. In the middle of downloading the full release now.

no watermarks, B&Ws, timecodes, nothing. good clear print, good sound, great movie. shame its p&s cos the original aspect is 2.35:1 so its a very wide movie, but no other complaints.

how many nfo's ya need to pack with it tho

wow, I just gotta comment once and again and say that is the best damn screener I've ever seen...definitely a first-run copy and top-notch encoding...colors are accurate, sounds are nice and crisp and zero static. Well Done

As for the movie:

ABSOLUTELY FUCKING HILIAROUS

I loved it.

Like everyone else said, the quality is awesome for a VHS scr, sound is stereo, but that is cool too. I loved spaced and I love this film.

8.5/8.5/10

It's not out of sync anywhere. Get a better DVD player/media player.


Posted by Furius on 05-12-2004 09:08 PM:

Mint screener.
Glad I didnt bother with any of the Cams & waited for this one.
9/9/9


Posted by SToNERUK on 05-12-2004 09:12 PM:

Awesome quality, fantastic movie... There's nothing I can say that hasn't been said already, so you can stop reading now.

Very funny.

Good video quality. Shame its FS as already said...but good and clean - a little pixelation if watching on PC, wont see it on the TV though.


Posted by evestor on 05-13-2004 04:59 AM:

Movie is funny as hell.

8/9/9

Well, where to begin.. Im amazed.. the british have 2 decent flicks. 28 days later and this movie.... is the sky falling or world really coming to an end??? =P this movie was pretty good, had some funny moments. SOme pixelation, especially in the beginning.. but after that wasnt too bad. Very watchable. Enjoy.

It is in plces a little out of sync (hardly noticeable though)

Looks real good.This will do me till the dvd comes out!


Posted by desertboy on 05-13-2004 08:41 PM:

7/8/7
The video isn't great not by any stretch of the imagination. It's certainly not bad, looks a lot like a 2nd gen VHS through my xbox on my my telly, A little worse on my dvd player and like shit on my PC monitor.

Sounds fine doesn't appear to be any watermarks etc., Full screen which is shit, It's an ok british film certainly worth checking out over the ridiculously poor cam.

Posted by xiaNaix on 05-14-2004 01:01 AM:

Glad this is finally getting a proper release. Brilliant film. Too bad there was no U.S. distribution so the only way for me to see it was to either fly over to the UK or download it. I chose the latter.

Video - 8
Audio - 8
Movie - 10

Nice to see a group doing a decent encode for a change.


Posted by bcool2k on 05-14-2004 10:02 AM:

I was a little skeptical about this one at first but its is downright Hilarious.. Excellent Full screen Pic and Crisp clear sound throughout.. Excellent copy.. 1000x better than the Cam.. Props to PHAT for the rls


8/8/7


Posted by Loafboy on 05-14-2004 10:37 AM:

As a point of interest to all the none british peeps on here, you should check out the UK series Spaced. It is made by the same guys, has the same actors and directed by the same bloke.

If you loved this movie then you'll love this series. Interestingly enough the is a sketch in the second series that inspired them to do this whole film (its based on the PS game resident evil don't ya know) and the casts love of Zombie Flix


Posted by BlueStar on 05-14-2004 01:59 PM:

Superb screener of a superb film. For a VCD of a VHS film I personally haven't seen better. Would have preferred wide screen but that's a minor quibble.

9/9/10

*However* I agree with the person who said there is a small sync problem - On CD1 where Shaun is talking to his mother in the kitchen, sound goes out of sync for a minute or 2. Noticable because there's lots of dialouge. It corrects itself pretty fast though.

At least that's what happens on my copy, anyone else or is it just my media?

Posted by kennyg_uk on 05-16-2004 12:15 PM:

8/9/8

A nice surprise to see a screener for this so early when a lot of people on here expected the cam to be the only rls until a retail DVD Rip surfaces.

Seeing as each disk was only 45 minutes maybe they could have done an SVCD here to improve the video slightly but apart from that this is a great release.


Posted by dc_man on 05-16-2004 05:07 PM:

Flawless release, flawless movie.

9/9/9


Posted by jrw on 05-22-2004 08:37 PM:

Thumbs up

To say this release has no pixelation is just plain silly,its a VCD for christ sake(very noticable on my HDTV) , but rating on a VCD scale i'd give the video a 9, if it were SVCD / DVD and it looked like this i'd give it a 6 tops, Anyhow this release is very watchable and a great movie.

9/8/8.5


Posted by sunup187 on 05-23-2004 04:14 PM:

8/8 dark comedy. Thanks Phat great release~!!@

Looking forward to other releases from this group


Posted by damos1967 on 05-26-2004 02:56 PM:

i thank the powers that be for
1) the movie itself and the people who made it available-awesome movie
2) all of your reviews, for it not for your reviews i would have never heard of this movie.
movie is in excellent quality and an instant cult classic. i just wish someone would put out spaced because it has to be good and probably will never be available in the us.
9/9/9
