Ghost Ship Blu-ray, Video Quality

What Ghost Ship the film lacks in originality, it partially makes up for in some of the most luscious cinematography (by Gale Tattersall) in recent memory, photography that this Blu-ray's VC-1 encode reproduces with stunning results. As mentioned above, the lighting in this film is fantastic, with gorgeous dappling effects that shimmer (in a good way) and fill scenes with a ghostly ambience that the film's story only haltingly is able to convey. A lot of this film is dark, dark, dark, and this Blu-ray's black levels and contrast are top notch, with a depth of detail and clarity in even the most deeply shrouded segments. Colors are lifelike and well saturated, and the special effects literally shine with a glow that helps to offset the patent ridiculousness of the script. Occasionally the superior resolution of the BD does undercut some of the less successful special effects, as in the establishing shots of the liner next to the salvage tug. No artifacting was noticed and overall this is an extremely sharp and satisfying visual experience.

Similarly, Ghost Ship's Dolby TrueHD 5.1 sound mix, while not as bombastic as you might expect from a horror film, offers superb clarity and some very nicely immersive moments. The opening scene offers not only the gorgeous "Senza Fine" but some very nice whip pan aural effects as the metal cable does its dastardly work. Later on, in our introduction to the Arctic Warrior crew, surround channels are in full swing as they struggle to maintain control in a desperate situation. Water effects are especially impressive throughout the film, and a couple of literally explosive moments will give your subwoofer a nice workout. Throughout the film dialogue is crisp and clear, nicely directional and always mixed well with both the underscore and great sound effects.
