Otis

 (2008)

Horror | Thriller



The authorities are baffled. A half-a-dozen strikingly beautiful teenage girls have disappeared, only to be discovered a month later — murdered and mutilated almost beyond recognition. When a new victim, 16-year-old high school cheerleader Riley Lawson (Ashlee Johnson), finds herself trapped and tortured in a basement prison by the psychopath Otis (Bostin Christopher), she resolves to do WHATEVER she has to in order to stay alive. By chance she escapes and Riley informs her relieved parents (Daniel Stern and Illeana Douglas) and younger brother (Jared Kusnitz) where she was held. Bypassing the FBI agent (Jere Burns) assigned to the case, the Lawson’s conspire to take their revenge and kill the madman who kidnapped their daughter…but circumstances begin to spin beyond their control when Otis's brother (Kevin Pollack) arrives on the scene.

Starring: Bostin Christopher, Ashley Johnson, Daniel Stern, Illeana Douglas, Kevin Pollak
Director: Tony Krantz


Otis Blu-ray, Video Quality

  n/a


Otis delivers an unimpressive visual experience. Presented in 1080p and framed at 2.35:1, the transfer is one of the lesser ones on the market. The film was shot on video, and it definitely looks it, coming off as a cheap made for TV movie. The image is smooth and offers a bright sheen over many shots with noise permeating the picture every now and again. Many shots are incredibly hazy with little resolution, clarity, or detail (a scene in chapter 11 featuring dialogue between Otis and Elmo is a fine example). Colors are moderately vibrant, only in places, but the movie never looks real. Very processed in appearance, flat, and completely uninteresting, nothing stands out and visually exciting. Black levels and flesh tones are questionable. Otis is a boring movie from a visual perspective and one of the lesser discs on the market in terms of video quality.


Otis Blu-ray, Audio Quality

  Array of 5


Otis comes to Blu-ray with a lossless Dolby TrueHD 5.1 soundtrack. Dialogue is a bit low in volume, but generally clear. Music is clear with decent fidelity and spread nicely across the front soundstage. The rear speakers get a good workout with some nice discrete effects in the form of gunfire heard over the opening news footage-inspired credits. There is a bit of rattling and rumbling from the subwoofer as Otis' junk mobile huffs and puffs its way out of frame after he kidnaps Riley in chapter 6. It also pans nicely across the soundstage with a solid rear presence. Like its video quality, Otis is completely uninteresting from a sonic perspective. It fares a little better than the video, however, and is a decent enough, if not forgettable, soundtrack.
