FIX YOUR FREAKING SOUND YOU LOSERS


My lord! The movie is well made except for the idiot in charge of sound put the voice tracks at a volume of 1 and everything else at a 107. It's almost un watchable. Everytime a phone rings in the movie you can hear your speakers get damaged.

I mean heck there was even a scene containing important dialog that we had to turn the volume up to maximum just to hear. Worse yet there are no subtitles so watching this movie is a complete joke.

This is actually worse than movies with color tones so dark that you can't even watch them at night. I mean somebody had to have listened to the completed sound tracks before releasing this and realised just how distracting it is.

I can't even comment on the actual movie because this sound crap is THAT BAD.

Ours was so low it was inaudible but then we fixed it somehow and it was all good. Its never happened with any other DVD either. Piece of *beep* lol

I just watched the dvd (UK revolver entertainment) and it was fine, no problem with the sound at all. Great film!

I wondered about this too! I watched the UK dvd last night and the dialogue was too low in the overall sound mix I'm sure.

Technically the film was inept in quite a few ways - cramped framing of characters, awkward establishing shots and cutting, the sound problem, jarring editing between various scenes that doesn't work well. Even as a nightmare 'shock' piece the editing just doesn't run as it could do. I really wondered watching this film where the production came from! This was quite a genuinely bad film!

Don't all your TV's have a sound option called VOICE?
Mine does (SAMSUNG TV) and it raises the sound of peoples voices whilst lowering very loud music. This means that I will always buy Samsung's forever more whilst they have this function as it's a Godsend!
