Brotherhood Of The Wolf (Director's Cut) (1 4K UHD + 3 Discs) [Region A & B & C]

Product Information

The incredible hit that took audiences and critics alike on "a wild ride" (Premiere) is back with more chilling adventure that's sure to have pulses racing all over again!

Lavishly filmed and thrillingly gripping, Christophe Gans’ film is an irresistible mix of period drama, blood-pumping action and chilling horror. Featurette - presented here are several short archival featurettes that focus on different aspects of the production, characterizations, unique special effects, stylistic appearance, and soundtrack of Brothehood of the Wolf. Europe's busiest forums, with independent news and expert reviews, for TVs, Home Cinema, Hi-Fi, Movies, Gaming, Tech and more. Trailer - presented here is a promotional trailer for the new 4K restoration of Brotherhood of the Wolf. Introducing our heroes – the soldier/naturalist De Fronsac and his brother-in-arms, Mani, again we are thrown an absolute curve-ball.Gone is the frustrating over-use of edge enhancement and I didn’t spot any irritating smoothing or aggressive grain reduction. As for supplements, while the vintage featurettes far outweigh anything newly produced, there are still hours upon hours of content to dig through here.

Featuring an often stunning Dolby Vision transfer, Atmos audio in French, corrected subtitles, and a nice assortment of vintage extras, it’s the release we always deserved.There are some stunning shots here, as perhaps you'd only expect from cinematographer Dan Laustsen who has most recently wowed audiences with three increasingly visually spectacular John Wick sequels ( John Wick: Chapter 4 alone looks like a work of art), and the new 4K rendition enables these to finally be appreciated in all their glory. Appling the curves and power windows via the DaVinci Resolve Advanced Panel ensured I could make quicker and more efficient choices during the DI.

During the reign of Louis XV, an isolated district of south-central France was haunted by the “Beast of Gévaudan” which savagely killed over 100 people, primarily women and children. As panic sweeps across the region, the King sends his finest military minds, the scientist and adventurer Gregoire de Fronsac and his martial-arts-trained Iroquois blood brother Mani to flush out the Beast and kill it. You can probably tell from my comment above about Shout’s previous Blu-ray release that I was no fan of the transfer used there. With Eric Martin, Hiventy’s workflow supervisor, we very quickly saw the limits of colour reproduction in those files,” explains Bigueur.Effects range from punishing body blows and the crack of muskets to the satisfying whip-thud of a tomahawk, or the crash of the beast, tearing through wood or violently smashing its prey against rocks. There's some surround enveloping going on here, drawing you into the atmospheric piece, allowing caves to echo, or minute nuances in the silence to creep out at you. The film looks undeniably gorgeous, with the mostly on-location settings lit and lensed beautifully, with a great sense of atmosphere.
