30 Days of Night(2007)
For 30 days every winter, the isolated town of Barrow, Alaska is plunged into a state of complete darkness. It's a bitter time when most of the inhabitants head south. This winter, a mysterious group of strangers appear: bloodthirsty vampires, ready to take advantage of the uninterrupted darkness to feed on the residents remaining in town. Barrow's Sheriff Eben, his estranged wife Stella, and an ever-shrinking group of survivors must do anything they can to last until daylight.

In the United States this film was released by SONY Pictures and from what I could tell the UK transfer appears identical to the US transfer. Detail in particular is at a very high level – the snowy fields during the daylight scenes in the very opening are incredibly lush and rich. Later on when the film switches into its "darker" mode the transfer continues to impress with consistency of detail which is often difficult to maintain. The color-scheme appears to be in tact as well and both whites and blacks are rendered adequately. I did not detect external DNR manipulation either – contrast appears natural and fine detail not manipulated. The actual print is of the highest quality possible. Icon Film Distribution have secured a print that is practically flawless - I could not detect any scratches, debris, or dirt. (Note: This is a Region-free release which you will be able to play on your PS3 or SA regardless of your geographic location). 30 Days of Night Blu-ray, Audio QualityOn this Blu-ray release you will find two audio tracks English: DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 and English: Dolby Digital 5.1. The DTS-HD Master mix is simply breathtaking!! 30 Days of Night is a film that offers a great deal of "reference" scenes and if you have the proper equipment to show-off this disc must make its way to your collection. Here's why: first, you get a tremendous amount of activity in the rear channels. Some of the audio kicks are so potent that during selected scenes one could really get caught off guard (watch out for those night creatures sneaking in). Second, superb balance. I love to hear a proficiently mixed soundtrack but what I love even more is hearing different colors - a variety of sounds ranging from subtle and delicate to powerful, crisp, and punchy. And yes, Icon Film Distribution's release of 30 Days of Night delivers precisely that: a masterfully done DTS-HD Master mix. Third, the excellent clarity of dialog. Even during some of the more messy scenes the audio producers have maintained a terrific quality of sound where every little bit comes off the speakers flawlessly. For the record, I did not detect any drop-outs, hissing, or pop-ups. Optional English subtitles are provided for the main feature and they do appear to be split (the overwhelming majority of the text is outside of the image frame). Finally, this is a region-free release which you will be able to play on your PS3 or SA regardless of your geographical location.
