Strange Wilderness Blu-ray
Paramount Pictures | 2008 | 85 mins | Rated R | Apr 14, 2009
Strange Wilderness(2008)Comedy     From Happy Madison Productions comes a comedy with bite. In order to save his wildlife TV show from being cancelled, dim-witted host Peter Gaulke (Steve Zahn) and his half-baked crew of misfits have one last chance to turn the ratings around. Desperate to stay on the air, Peter hatches a plan to track down the most elusive beast on Earth - Bigfoot. But when killer pygmies, frisky border guards and an amorous turkey threaten to cut their expedition short, the crew of Strange Wilderness will soon discover that nature is one bad mother. For more details about Strange Wilderness on Blu-ray, see the Strange Wilderness Blu-ray Review Strange Wilderness Blu-ray, Video Quality  Strange Wilderness roams onto Blu-ray with a satisfactory but generally underwhelming 1080p transfer framed in a 2.35:1 window. Detail ranges from solid to subpar from beginning to end. Most impressive is the visible detail on the more mundane objects seen throughout the film: the pavement on the road, leaves, foliage, and tree trunks, and the siding on the "Strange Wilderness" RV. Elsewhere -- facial detail, for example -- is adequate but far from exemplary. Colors are generally natural in tint and the film never appears too warm or too dull. Between the outdoors locales and the varied shades of clothing worn by the characters, the image never lacks for color but they don't always look as defined and natural as those seen in the best of transfers. Many scenes also take on a soft and unfocused appearance. Flesh tones are fine, and black levels are deep and dark. Strange Wilderness offers up a sufficient high definition video transfer, but hardly one that will impress longtime fans of the format. Strange Wilderness Blu-ray, Audio Quality Strange Wilderness comes to Blu-ray with a Dolby TrueHD 5.1 lossless soundtrack. This is a bland, mostly front- and dialogue-driven generic soundtrack that offers only an occasional spurt of sonic excitement. The music heard throughout offers a nice presence across the front; it's sometimes seemingly a bit low in volume compared to dialogue and sound effects, but clear and pleasing. Bass is occasionally both heard and felt, the rumbling of the "Strange Wilderness" RV as it pulls out for the trip to Ecuador serves as a good example. The track features precious few surround effects. There are several sequences that take place outdoors, such as a campfire sequence in chapter seven that is ripe for a true surround-sound experience, but it offers little in the way of immersive atmospherics. A barrage of gunfire opens up the soundstage to fine effect in the final act of the film; shots fly out from every corner and explode through each speaker. It's a short burst of excitement in an otherwise dull soundtrack that compliments the movie well enough but never elevates it to another level.
