Father's Day(2011)
Ahab, a man obsessed with exacting a brutal, violent revenge on the man who murdered his dad, joins John, an eager priest, and Twink, a hot-headed street hustler, on an epic quest to find and defeat this mythical monster known as Chris Fuchman AKA The Father's Day Killer. For more about Father's Day and the Father's Day Blu-ray release, see the Father's Day Blu-ray Review Starring: Adam Brooks, Mackenzie Murdock, Matthew Kennedy, Conor Sweeney, Lloyd Kaufman Director: Adam Brooks » See full cast & crew Father's Day Blu-ray, Video QualityIs it intentional irony that the long delayed Father's Day Blu-ray sports an MPEG-2 encode? (We'll talk about the Dolby Digital 2.0 sound mix below.) Fear not, however: the film's 1.78:1 1080p presentation is surprisingly spry most of the time, especially when the film veers out of the dark and dank corners that it spends so much time in. When we're offered shots in relatively normal lighting, things pop really rather well, with good fine object detail, well saturated color and an overall very clean and clear image. That said, a lot of the film takes place in very dark settings, and much of this outing suffers from very poor shadow detail and even outright crush on more than one occasion. That's probably only going to add to its lo-fi allure for some. Father's Day Blu-ray, Audio QualityOh, the angry private messages I received when I deigned not to take the Blu-ray release of Grindhouse too much to task when it was released with "only" a Dolby Digital 5.1 mix. But the fact is, that mix was relatively robust and immersive, even if it wasn't in a lossless format. Troma had such problems even getting this release out, I guess it's good news that there's a soundtrack at all, even if it is a standard (and at times fairly anemic sounding) Dolby Digital 2.0 mix. What makes this so disappointing with this film is that there's so much great music used as source cues, not to mention a glut of fantastic sound effects, that most certainly would have been amplified (no pun intended) with a lossless setting, whether that be two or five-plus channels. What's here is okay—there's certainly no damage to report (other than intentional "retro" pops, clicks and jumps), and dynamic range is decently wide, but it will be interesting to see if there's a similar Grindhouse-esque brouhaha raised over this film's lack of lossless audio.
