Hey dude. Just a heads up, there is an updated Spanish bluray that gets rid of a couple of digital glitches and the freezing in the version you have. I've had both the one you have, and the new Spanish one. The new one has the white cover with the eyes and mouth like you showed. I honestly think this is one of the best 80s horror sequels.

If you see the unburned outer edge (where the silver burn meets the non burn area) then it is a burned disc. Look in the inner ring's markings to find the brand and maybe BD-R? Look also with a bright flash light shinning on the label side as you look at the burned side or play side to see any blank recordable bluray manufacture markings through it.

It looks far superior than the DVD and other bootlegs available. This is the best version we’re gonna get until the US blu ray version comes out or a 4K version later hopefully.

You hit a home run with this Christian. Is part 2 better than 1? No, but it's just as good IMO.

But with the new characters, I think they kind of filled that gap in a different way.

Fright Night part 2 is a perfect example of a sequel done RIGHT! I grew up on those movies, and the soundtrack by Brad Fiedel is a banger, unfortunately unavailble. Hopefully it will get the release it deserves one day. I stay hopeful....Just a couple of years ago the Ghostbusters 2 score was released after 30 something years! Though not as good as Elmer Bernstein's original I have a soft spot for it. Thought to have been 'lost', well they found it! But im a massive soundtrack geek. Just give me crocodile dundee 2 already!

I actually bought this based on one of your "10 Horror Blu-Rays I Want You To Own" videos and jumped at it. I'm very pleased with it. Is it perfect? No, but for a film that has no other good release, it's pretty good. The freezing moments feel to me like the old layer switch glitch that some DVD's had. It wasn't always prominent, but you could sometimes catch it. Not saying that's what it is, but what it reminds me of. I also think it's a legit copy, but I'm no expert. lol Personally, I still prefer the first one, but this is a really good and fun sequel.

Not a bootleg. This falls into the gray market so to speak. Spain has a media law where if a rightsholder does nothing with XYZ material within however many years third party distributors are allowed to come in and basically do what they please with it. This is why there was a Spanish release of 'True Lies', 'The Beach' and what you are showing here. Yes people will claim bootleg because its not studio sanctioned blah blah well these US laws aren't being recognized in Spain. This is different then say China making releases of films that are currently being sold legitimately etc. The Spanish law clearly stipulates if this film has no legit rights holder pushing a release within the Spanish market (and I assume by proxy the EU) then its open season on it. I have the Spanish release of 'The Beach' and I absolutely love it. I have no faith that Boyle or the studios will ever put that film on blu ray. He seems embarassed by that film based on recent interviews anyway. These distributors whoever they are - they are doing the lords work imo. If the studios or rights holders will drag their feet or outright forget about a film someone needs to fill that void.
@austinwillcut49199 күн бұрын
Yeah, but the thing is this particular blu ray he showed has a dark blue disc surface which is a BD-R, so it's a bootleg in this case. If it was official, it would be a silver pressed disc like every other official blu ray unless these Spanish distributers are just being very cheap.
