Wow, really nice ftf. Video is pretty damn sweet for such an early release. Watched CD1 on my TV an was impresed. Sound isn't too bad either. Little scratchy but definetly watchable.

Good release guys. Hopefully you can keep this this up.....who knows :P

at least it beats a-team..bet they'll proper it for the hell of it


Posted by Hitman47 on 10-10-2002 02:59 AM:

this movie looks fuggin sweet


Posted by bmvtoys on 10-10-2002 03:10 AM:

Gotta give FTF props for a pre on what is one of the most anticipated movies in a long time (next to star wars and such). If it's anything like the original, it's gonna rock.

5/7/?

Pic is kinda crappy on this one but better than most ftf's. The sample jpg is a still frame image, but when watching the flick it's not a very clear but more like fast movin pixels. Looks nice when still framed though. Hehe. Sound is good though.


Posted by Aff on 10-10-2002 04:11 AM:

so whats the quality like?


Posted by devilbeast on 10-10-2002 04:28 AM:

the quality on this form the sample isnt too bad if you want it grab it if not wait and there may be a proper thats run through some filters and shite but this one wasnt too bad good movie too from what ive heard


Posted by EnForCeR on 10-10-2002 05:02 AM:

this movie has the same plot about feardot.com. Hope fully it doesnt suck as bad as it.


Posted by DaveMode on 10-10-2002 05:16 AM:

So is this movie better than the Japanese original?


Posted by impossible on 10-10-2002 05:32 AM:

4/7/?

The video quality is shitty, the source looked nice, but it looks like it was taken from a low bitrate, or just a fuck up job on the silver or tape they got it from....I give it a 4 since I'm a nice guy.

Audio is decent, not bad at all, good for TS.

Movie, dunno, but this isnt watchable by my means, since I dont want to ruin the movie by watching some shit ass pixelated & blurred (only way to describe the video quality) release.


Posted by neatz on 10-10-2002 06:05 AM:

sound is really bad in some parts nice way to wreck a movie


Posted by ZIGGYY on 10-10-2002 06:42 AM:

Posted by }Test{ on 10-10-2002 07:13 AM:

WHY!! why did i even download this!
man..video is Screwed.. SOUND is TOTTALY screwed.. movie itself would have been fair.. but FTF tottaly ruined it for me
cant beleive i even gave ti a chance. another FTF typical release. this time they REALLY screwed up on the sound and vid.


Posted by dumwaldo on 10-10-2002 07:15 AM:

Video:
very bland with little color, almost black and white at times with the only trace of color being the prevelant blue tint.
somewhat dark at times.
visible noise in the picture.

Audio:
while the audio was good through just about all of CD 1 at about the 44 minute mark it suddenly turns shitty with some kind of distorted effect.

based on CD1,
video: 5
audio: 5

Posted by [LdFg] on 10-10-2002 07:58 AM:

4/5/?

Video quality REALLY sux bad(too blocky whenever there is movement)

Audio is not that great but its listenable...


If U REALLY REALLY REALLY want to see this movie now d/l this.....else wait for a proper.


Posted by drdamour on 10-10-2002 08:30 AM:

d

wow this is bad. The top of the film is completely cut off. you usually get to a actors eyes, that's about it. The sound on cd1 at 44minutes till the end has that bad echo effect. I dunno if this source was just bad, or the encoding job was horrible. Either way, this should be nuked or should have an attached warning...seen it nuked on most sites though.


Posted by IsoFAST on 10-10-2002 10:52 AM:

God damn

I never seen so many a-team members or cock sniffers in a FTF thread in my life.

A-team guys: I have nothing against you guys, but there are a few rules in the scene you must obey.

rule #1: Don't flame other groups, especially when they are better.

rule #2: I can't believe I said FTF was better then someone else, lol

rule #3 Never ever proper your own stuff, if so, then propper it a few days after, not a few months.


Posted by aTTicA on 10-10-2002 10:59 AM:

ok.. so igf ur not too picky pick this up and watchit. its very blue.. pics a lil pixely soetimes.. all and all id say its watchable.. audio a lil squelchy.. if u really wanna see this.. grab it.. if not im sure there will be a better release eventually.. imma go with 5.5/5/?.. anyways ftf thx for the rls. id rather have a group thats consistantly average.. than a group wiht a once in a life time good rip ad everything else is pure crap


Posted by scousethief on 10-10-2002 12:41 PM:

usual blue shit from ftf shame cos red dragon wasnt that bad
I thought that with time things get better obviously not with FTF still the same crappy shite I had hopes that things were getting better but........


Posted by synchron on 10-10-2002 03:25 PM:

My vote: 5/3/8

Video: Contrast is way too high and bearly watchable at times.

Audio: The 44 minute mark of CD1 is definitely too annoying (bad distortion) and should have been checked before release.

This is my first official vote as I'm a newbie and just get these things from my own research. I am not affiliated with any groups but I really appreciate every1 for getting these pre's out so fast. Maybe one day I'll learn the tricks as to how to always get these releases a few hours after they're made. Usually I gotta wait like 3 days. With this one, I was lucky.

So as a newbie, rest assured, this vote is as honest as it gets.

BTW, too keep this honest, should I rate based on how I see it on my Bigscreen or how it looks on the PC? I ask this because even the shittiest video can look halfway decent on a TV with good filtering.

Posted by ItlHorrorFan on 10-10-2002 04:07 PM:

Japanese version is 10x better than this one and the release is the usual FTF Shiiit. 4-3-5


Posted by flipp0r on 10-10-2002 05:15 PM:

Okay....

No one is mentioning that half way through the movie the heads get cut off on da screen. HELLO!!!

NUKE


Posted by HawkSE on 10-10-2002 07:41 PM:

A big bummer here.

Red Dragon FTF = Good
The Ring FTF = Bad

Who will have a decent release?


Posted by Beaver35 on 10-10-2002 08:08 PM:

Where are the people's heads.....

The picture wasn't to bad but the cam angle was very bad...most of cd1 your missing the whole top of the movie and for most of the walking scenes the people have no heads......Sound in places sounded like they were under water...I'm not flaming . When the movie is good is i give good reviews and when it bad it's bad..


Posted by Cory on 10-11-2002 12:44 AM:

Could someone compare this release to the FTF-Red Dragon release earlier? Is it better or is it worse? Just so I have an idea. Any comments would be nice...thanks.


Posted by Asterisk on 10-11-2002 02:13 AM:

The video in this release sucks compared to Red Dragon, it's very blurred and cropped, the audio isn't too bad, no hum this time but it's a bit distorted.

4/5/6.

I gave Red Dragon 7/5/8.


Posted by blazed_4_life on 10-11-2002 04:25 AM:

It's an alright movie, video kinda chopped off last 15 minutes on CD1, overall though, i give it a 6/7/8


Posted by R1PP3R on 10-11-2002 04:43 AM:

Heads cut off...???

Does anyone know if.. their heads are supposed to be cut off? I grabbed this and checked it out before I burned it.. and it seems that the heads of the actors are all cut off... also qualitys not to great.. I think I wait.. good try though FTF.. overall 5/3/?


Posted by luciddreams on 10-11-2002 06:50 AM:

awsome movie, shitty quality like the last 15 mins of the 1st disk the video moves down and all u see are the lips then like the audio gets messed up the second disk is better like the 1st 5 mins you get the half face scene, but then it gets better. oh well it's a pre AWSOME MOVIE tho kinda freaky well very freaky


Posted by youremoms on 10-11-2002 08:13 AM:

FTF plese stop it

QUIT THE GAME MODDER FUKKERS YOU SUCK I HATE YOU I DONT EVEN WANT THE PRE YOU SUCK URE LIKE THA NASTY CANCER OF VCD RELEASES FUCK YOU AND YOURE FUCKING MOMS I HOPE U ALL GET SHOT BY FBI OFFICERS ... GO TO HELL..... DIE!


Posted by Zipomatic on 10-11-2002 08:18 AM:

Yup...

Like people have said already (I should have read before I downloaded) The sound for the last 10 minutes of CD1 is very distorted and hard to hear, plus as was also mentioned the picture seems to have the top third of the screen missing, so you only get to see people from the nose down.

Video 5
Sound 6 (apart from the end of cd1)


Posted by neatz on 10-11-2002 08:45 AM:

omg even worse there heads r croped out for a half hour lmao
crapy sh*t


Posted by bmvtoys on 10-11-2002 07:02 PM:

it's a shame, apparently the vhs/dvd boot they got was high on the bottom so they cropped it to make it even, when they should have left it as is. This release would not have been so bad if it wasnt so badly cropped.

good movie though.

bv


Posted by HawkSE on 10-11-2002 10:10 PM:

Wasted Download...


Posted by mick4y on 10-12-2002 12:45 AM:

Sound after 44mins goes really echoey... hard to listen to. The cam is positioned wrong too cutting off the top third of the picture.

The quality is worth putting up with because the movie rocks but the sooner a proper of this comes out the better.

5/4/9


Posted by masta_spl on 10-13-2002 01:37 AM:

this was a watchable release except for about 5 minutes at the end of cd1 but overall it's watchable i thought this movie was going to be better then it was

video 5
audio 4
movie 5.5

I agree with this rating... FTF sucks.. A team rules


Posted by LEgacy18x on 10-13-2002 08:44 PM:

im not picky in terms of video and audio quality(shit i watched knockaround guys)lol but this is a lil much when the top third fo the movie is cut off.that alone is justification for a 1/?/? rating..


Posted by Homey on 10-14-2002 04:53 AM:

hah you rock man !

Posted by verbalkent on 10-16-2002 06:29 AM:

4/6/9


hot movie, shit bugged me out, i saw the original japanese version years ago, it was creepy, but the subtitles were ass , had the ppl sayin shit like "not go watch the video, week death" didnt matta how much i drank, or smoked or tripped, shit aint make sense, i give props to ftf for puttin this out, i just hope somebody releases a better vversion, cd1 cuts the heads off like at the last 10mins of that disk, other than that, its barely watchable, but watchable non the less, the movie is great tho, just please somebody release a better version............


my 2 cent.........spend it or donate it


Posted by hutbay on 10-16-2002 07:35 AM:

Video 4 out of 10 , Audio 5 out of 10

Head cut off, Crappy Video and Audio...


Posted by verbalkent on 10-17-2002 07:12 AM:

Unhappy great movie,, but can we get a better version

I respect all groups for there efforts and patience and shit,.. But i gotta say this, im a horror fan, and this movie is hotness, but damn yo,, the cut off heads, the grainey vid, the choppy sound and the greyish color make this release a poor one, but dont get me wrong, the shits very watchable....

BUT CAN WE PLEASE GET A BETTER VERSION??? NO DISRESPECT TO FTF, U KATS PUT SHIT OUT FIRST.. JUST WANNA B ABLE TO WATCH THIS FOR ALL OF ITS CREEPY ASS GLORY.........

BANG!! AND IM OUT


Posted by shamelessbill on 10-17-2002 01:13 PM:

OMFG,
How could anyone watch this shit Q.?
Audio garbled, video crops off heads. Never made it through disc 1. You people should stop rating a release by the sample. I, like a dumb ass listened and wasted my bandwidth on this crap release of a movie that looks good. thanks for nothing.
4/3/?


Posted by serj on 10-18-2002 05:37 AM:

ok i never rate movies because its pointless but i do talk about them but you people said this was watchable i disagree this is bearly watchable and the aduio lacks i mean i'm thankful for the early release and every thing but still....and btw cd1 is fine i can make out what every one says....

it seems to me that you guys was just worryed about the earlier release instead of the audio and video if the video was any worster this should be labled as a cam


Posted by serj on 10-18-2002 05:38 AM:

1 more thing i agree shamelessbill the picture sample looked 80% better then what the rip was i dont know where you people get your mpg samples at but where i get my rips theres no such thing as samples.


Posted by mynismo on 10-31-2002 05:46 AM:

the ring - shitftf

alright i don't know wut tha fuk is wrong with people, whether your def or blind or fuking both, but this is the worst release i have ever seen, and i have been around the scene for quiet a while, a Hbo rlz would have topped this crap of a movie, for like half of the movie the camera is lowered so we can't see anybody's face, and that hissing noiise for 10 mineuts ever time someone talked it was inunderstandable, i'm dissappointed in ftf and think that they could have done allot better


Posted by Mystic Slippers on 11-08-2002 11:18 PM:

Dark picture (but it is a dark movie i guess). A portion of the top of the screen is missing. Sound is pretty good but then near the end of CD1 it turns to shit ruining everything with a horrible echo effect. The movie was garbage compared to the Japanese original anyway.

Props to FTF for the release anyway, just a shame the audio let it down.

4/2/3
