After.Life(2009)
After a horrific car accident, Anna wakes up to find the local funeral director Eliot Deacon preparing her body for her funeral. Confused, terrified and feeling still very much alive, Anna doesn't believe she's dead, despite the funeral director's reassurances that she is merely in transition to the afterlife. Eliot convinces her he has the ability to communicate with the dead and is the only one who can help her. Trapped inside the funeral home, with nobody to turn to except Eliot, Anna is forced to face her deepest fears and accept her own death. But Anna's grief-stricken boyfriend Paul still can't shake the nagging suspicion that Eliot isn't what he appears to be.

The image appears fairly glossy and free of excess grain and noise. The transfer appears consistently sharp, crisp, and clear, with only a few shots appearing ever-so-soft. Details are generally strong, particularly as seen in facial close-ups and the stone exterior of Eliot's funeral home and morgue. The film often sports a cold color palette -- those scenes within the depths of the morgue capture a steely blue and gray appearance -- but there are also plenty of scenes that showcase nicely rendered colors, usually appearing well-balanced and neutral in presentation. Blacks and flesh tones are consistently strong, but slight banding and blocking often appear in backgrounds throughout the film. After.Life features a technically sound but visually unremarkable viewing experience; it's the sort of material high def fans will take for granted, but other than some minor technical bugaboos, Anchor Bay's transfer delivers the goods. After.Life Blu-ray, Audio QualityA PCM 5.1 uncompressed soundtrack serves as the primary audio presentation accompanying this Blu-ray release of After.Life. Like the video presentation, it's of a high quality though not at a level where it's going to stand apart from the crowd. The track features a fair amount of surround information, usually generated by more powerful effects and music. Some rather trite "spooky whispering" flows about the soundstage and across the back in one scene, and some of the film's music enjoys a strong back channel support structure. Otherwise, ambience seems mostly limited to the front. A restaurant scene in chapter three features the slightest background nuances -- clanking dishes and chatty patrons -- though these elements are mostly carried across the front portion of the stage. Dialogue is generally strong but occasionally lacking in potency, sometimes playing as slightly shallow. Bass is limited to but a few brief elements that hint at a low end. Ultimately, this is an effective but somewhat generic soundtrack typical of a low-budget Horror/Thriller picture. Anchor Bay's track is solid enough for what it is, but it won't be remembered as a hallmark sound presentation.
