Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter Blu-ray
Mvd Visual | 2001 | 85 mins | Rated R | Oct 28, 2008
Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter(2001)Action | Comedy | Horror | Musical     The Power of Christ Impales you! Jesus has finally returned to Earth--but before he can judge the living and the dead, he must contend with a nearly indestructible army of vampires! Luckily, he has sidekicks--the foxy Mary Magnum and legendary god of Mexican wrestling, luchador Santos! Music, kung fu, and good-natured blasphemy collide in this oddball, action-packed horror/comedy from Canadian director Lee Gordon Demarbe. 'Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter' won awards at the Santa Cruz Film Festival, Slamdance, the Fargo Film Festival, and Zombiedance. For more details about Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter on Blu-ray, see the Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter Blu-ray Review Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter Blu-ray, Video Quality  Presented in 1080p utilizing the VC-1 codec (at an average bitrate of 14Mbps), Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter is an atrocious visual experience. I’m still trying to comprehend why this was even released in high-definition, considering the source material is in such awful shape. Detail appears subpar even for an upconverted DVD and there’s a heavy layer of noise (16mm has a tendency to produce heavy grain) over the entire screen that runs through the full runtime. Witnessing print specks or the occasional scratch would have been welcomed, but what we have here appear to be full dirt globs. There was even a section about halfway through the film where black lines ran through the middle of the screen, which was probably caused by film damage at the time the material was shot. Continuing the trend of disappointments, black levels were dismal, contrast shows little differentiation, and colors are washed out. You probably don’t need to hear any additional negatives, but the last thing worth pointing out is the presence of vomit inducing image stability issues (a steady-cam or tripod would have done wonders). In the end, this qualifies as one of the worst Blu-rays I’ve seen thus far on the format. Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter Blu-ray, Audio Quality The only audio offering on the disc is a Dolby Digital 2.0 track in the native language of English. Matching the quality of the video, the audio track is a horrible example of low-budget recording. Within the first few minutes of the film you’ll realize the voicework was added after the filming, so the dialogue has a tendency to not line up with the lip movements in the feature. Regarding the dialogue itself, there’s a fair amount of clipping as the recording equipment seems unable to handle the higher volume of yelling or loud voices. The sound effects are significantly distorted, but it isn’t terribly distracting considering the cheesy nature of the entire production. Smacking sounds are used during the fight scenes to simulate kicks or punches, and the trademark kung-fu swoosh is applied to any movement during the battles. As you can imagine, volume levels between the music, dialogue and effects are rarely balanced in a pleasing manner, but I guess that’s to be expected when a group of aspiring filmmakers set out to complete an amateur film of this nature.
