Why are Universal's DVD sets always defective?
I've had so many incidents where I've bought a DVD set from Universal where the film locks up, breaks down into multi-colored dots, etc., and have read so many product reviews of Universal DVD sets that indicate I'm not alone in finding a total lack of quality control. So it was with no surprise I read reviews of the recently-released Hammer DVD set having playback problems. Sure enough, CURSE OF THE WEREWOLF skipped on one set, while BRIDES OF DRACULA froze up on another set. Is this because Universal tries to cram so much onto a double-sided DVD to cut corners and costs, or are they simply using inferior materials and facilities?
