Sands of Oblivion

 (TV) (2007)

Sands of Oblivion Blu-ray features mediocre video and poor audio, but overall it's a disappointing Blu-ray release

Deep in the California desert are the charred remains of ancient Egypt--from an old Hollywood film set, that is. In 1923, director Cecile DeMille ordered the replica ablaze after filming. No ever knew why...until now. ;Sands of Oblivion' follows an archaeologist couple (Morena Baccarin and Adam Baldwin), and an Iraq War veteran (Victor Webster) as they make a horrifying discovery about an evil force lurking in the shifting desert sands.

Director: David Flores


Sands of Oblivion Blu-ray, Video Quality

  2.5 of 5

Sands of Oblivion is unearthed on Blu-ray and features a passable but visually uninteresting 1080p, 1.78:1-framed transfer. From the opening seconds onward, this one takes on the look of a budget made-for-television picture. Sand and sky as seen in the opening ancient Egypt segment are flat and textureless, but a few scattered details can look suitably good, for instance facial hair in close-up shots where viewers could literally count each itchy strand. Colors are fairly bold and never particularly unnatural. However, this is a terribly flat, one-dimmensional image; every frame makes it look like characters and backgrounds were cut out and glued onto a sheet of paper. Adding insult to injury are poorly defined blacks and dimensionless white clouds abuzz with noise. Haloing is a problem here and there, as is infrequent blocking. All said, Sands of Oblivion looks fine at a glance, and even sports some solid detail and coloring, but it's too flat and lifeless to truly inspire much confidence.


Sands of Oblivion Blu-ray, Audio Quality

  2.0 of 5

Sands of Oblivion blows onto Blu-ray with a tepid Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack; no lossless or uncompressed options are available. A most basic track, there's little definition, no sense of space, and hardly any noticeable surround extension. A few minor atmospheric effects heard primarily across the front half of the soundstage have virtually no impact on the overall presentation. Whether chirping insects, a gently blowing wind, or buzzing saws and other power tools used to take down the set in one scene, the track does nothing with them but convey the basic elements of each sound; there's no sense of realism, clarity, or space to any effect. The ancient creature's growls are a bit bass-y, but certainly nothing like what's to be heard in something like The Incredible Hulk. Fortunately, dialogue reproduction is sound, and it's the only thing of sonic consequence in the film.
