Plan 9 From Outer Space(1959)
Aliens resurrect dead humans as zombies and vampires to stop human kind from creating the Solaranite (a sort of sun-driven bomb). For more about Plan 9 From Outer Space and the Plan 9 From Outer Space Blu-ray release, see the Plan 9 From Outer Space Blu-ray Review Starring: Gregory Walcott, Mona McKinnon, Tor Johnson, Vampira, Bela Lugosi, Tom Keene Narrator: Criswell Director: Edward D. Wood, Jr. (I) » See full cast & crew Plan 9 From Outer Space Blu-ray, Video QualityPlan 9 From Outer Space is presented on Blu-ray courtesy of Legend Films with an AVC encoded 1080p transfer in 1.33:1. It goes without saying that Plan 9 From Outer Space has been released in manifold public domain and bootleg versions through the years, usually sourced from pretty poor looking prints. Legend's publicity materials surrounding this release state that it's undergone more restoration than for any previous release, and this Blu-ray does sport well above average looking sharpness for this release, though it must be stated that there is still occasional damage, notably some minor scratches and flecks, that still dot the elements. While noise reduction has been applied, the good news is it doesn't negatively affect the many mist shrouded scenes, which still look natural and never appear frozen or overly scrubbed. Legend also must be accorded some kudos for not slathering on its colorizing to absurd degrees, and their colorized version looks rather good, probably because the color for the most part is so minimally applied. In fact the aliens' bright purple shirts are about the only things in the colorized version that scream "color", and that's a good thing. The 1.33:1 open matte presentation does mean that headroom is exaggerated and boom mics can be seen from time to time. This Legend Films release contains both a colorized and the original black and white versions of the film. Screencaps from both versions are included here. Even numbered screencaps are from the colorized version and odd numbered screencaps are from the black and white version. Plan 9 From Outer Space Blu-ray, Audio QualityLegend has provided an unexpectedly good lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 stereo repurposed audio mix for Plan 9 From Outer Space that may not be generously spacious or immersive, but which presents the film's limited sonic ambitions with abundant clarity and precision. While there's no real damage to report here, the stereo repurposing adds even more reverb than the film has always exhibited, and while it's not that problematic, it adds to the already boxy quality the audio on this film has always had. There's rather good representation of all frequency ranges here, and this is certainly the best this film has ever sounded, which may be something of a back handed compliment.
