Planet Terror

 (2007)

Planet Terror Blu-ray delivers great video and superb audio in this excellent Blu-ray release

In Robert Rodríguez's "Planet Terror," two doctors find their graveyard shift inundated with townspeople ravaged by sores. Among the wounded is Cherry, a dancer whose leg was ripped from her body. As the invalids quickly become enraged aggressors, Cherry and her ex- boyfriend Wray lead a team of accidental warriors into the night.

Director: Robert Rodriguez


Planet Terror Blu-ray, Video Quality

  4.0 of 5

Planet Terror arrives on Blu-ray sporting a beat up, dirty and generally terrible looking 1080P transfer. Framed in its original theatrical aspect ration of 1.85:1 and encoded with AVC Mpeg-4, it's the perfect representation of how the film looked theatrically. Mr. Rodriguez, acting as both director and cinematographer, has given the film an intentional digital scrubbing to give the movie the appearance of having been badly treated over the course of many years. There's a ton of noise, loads of scratches, discolored frames, missing scenes and even burned out frames in the movie. It's all done for effect and comes across perfectly on Blu-ray. It would be pointless to dive into any real study of the quality of Planet Terror on Blu-ray as the movie looks intentionally bad. The most important aspect of this is that the film looks exactly like Mr. Rodriguez wants for it to look. What more can you ask for?


Planet Terror Blu-ray, Audio Quality

  4.5 of 5

Unlike the intentionally bad video of Planet Terror, the movie's audio is truly outstanding. Utilizing Dolby TrueHD 5.1 lossless encoding, the soundtrack manages to be aurally exciting while delivering a nice sphere of distinct atmosphere. There is a ton of surround activity and deep bass in the movie and it is all faithfully represented. I was particularly impressed with the many panning and rear directional effects used throughout the film. In addition, every gunshot is amped up for maximum gut wrenching effect while the most subtle sounds of dripping gore shine through. Rodriguez has included plenty of pops and hisses throughout the film to remind viewers that they are supposed to be watching a bad print of the film, so don't adjust your audio equipment when these intentional anomalies are heard. Fear not, though, as it all adds to the experience of watching a unique and entertaining film.
