'The Signal' - High-Def Digest Review

[Attebery]

Kenneth's review of 'The Signal' has been posted. He says it's a surprisingly solid, well-crafted thriller that offers a great cast and story. This Blu-ray sports a faithful video transfer, an excellent DTS HD MA audio track, and a heaping portion of supplemental features. This is definitely worth a look.

Saw this film over the weekend..very entertaining sci-fi/horror/comedy..very believeable story with solid acting...looks like they really stretched the $50k budget..WELL WORTH CHECKING OUT!

No worries, I'm working on 'Natural Born Killers' as we speak. Sorry for the delay -- Warner sent the NBK screener a few days later than Magnolia sent 'The Signal.'

Thanks as always for posting.

actually, NBK was a must for me, signal was a "wait and see" (which i couldn't wait and just bought), so i'm glad to see this one first. i just got it in the mail saturday too, so hopefully i'll find time for it this week.

Good review, regarding the encode, this is without any doubt as close as you can get to the master, HDV is 25mbit MPEG2.

I really want to see this. Not a blind buy but am excited to rent it!

Just got this today.

Having a major problem with the audio. It keeps going out on me on either soundtrack. Every 10 - 15 seconds. Is this a defective disc ... anyone else having the same issue?

[ben1080p]

I'm halfway through I think I like it
it's kinda mix of serious and and offbeat humor a la shaun of the dead

[Emoney7]

Finally watched this, good rental, was impressed by the actors for a lot of them being their first "major" feature it was really solid...

Always glad to see indie filmakers make it, especially on a shoestring budget, hope to see these guys in the future.

Really? Looks like it bombed. $145K the first week then
major decline.

This movie was really fun to watch, the mix of horror and comedy was well concieved.
