This is certainly the sharpest and clearest The Five Deadly Venoms has looked on any home video release, with a gorgeously saturated palette that really pops off the screen. Fine detail is certainly increased, if not quite at spectacular levels. Some of the film has always looked soft, and that ambience isn't changed very dramatically in this new Blu-ray incarnation. But black levels and contrast are outstanding, and the film simply is a riot of color and a lot of fun to watch in this new high definition presentation. The Five Deadly Venoms Blu-ray, Audio QualityTwo lossy mono tracks are offered in Dolby Digital 2.0 presentations, the original Mandarin and the English dub. The Mandarin is fairly spry sounding, though copious looping is more than obvious at times, with fairly apparent ambience changes throughout various voice work. Sound effects have reasonable impact and the original language soundtrack doesn't suffer from any egregious damage or even unbearable hiss. It's obviously narrow and suffers from typical Dolby compression at the high and low ends of the spectrum, but it suffices fairly well for these proceedings. The English dub is a satisfactory runner-up for those who can't stand to read subtitles, but my recommendation is to stick with the original language track if at all possible.
