This is something I hoped someone would do eventually. Catferoze provides two versions, I watched the main edit, as opposed to the workprint. Visual quality is great. Audio quality sometimes...
I'm not really a fan of New Nightmare, but one of the biggest problems it has is pacing and Ray has done a great job of tightening things up. I...
I'm not a massive fan of the original Elm Street film and I went into this knowing that Ray wouldn't have ticked all my personal boxes for an edit. That...
Ray Danger has done a very good job here, although I feel like it's a little too restrained for its own good. Amazingly, while 20 minutes have been cut, the...
15MaF has clearly put in a lot of work here, and I'm not sure I'm familiar enough with the film to appreciate it (so apologies if I misinterpret changes). I...
QUALITY Quality is excellent considering the file size. VISUAL EDITING Visual cuts are seamless. Newly added dream segments are nicely...
Krausfadr has put together a very slick looking version of a low budget film, drawing from pre-made material from a few different FX artists. The colour grading is a welcome...
It's been a long time since I've seen the theatrical cut. I was not a fan at all, but with some time now passed, I was curious how this edit...
Visual quality is pretty good, if a little softer than I'd like. The shot at 44:30 is noticeably more compressed than the rest of the edit but I can't think...
For the record, I have never seen Thor: Love and Thunder (I have seen the previous films). Every now and again I choose to make a fanedit my first experience,...
I've been interested in watching this for a while but I wasn't able to find it till recently. I always assumed this was the film presented as a 1970s/80s TV...
Quality is SD and it isn't great to look at, but it works well enough. Audio sounds good except for some of the Twilight Zone elements, which sound of a...
I hold the controversial opinion of thinking that the second Elm Street film is actually quite good, and would put it at #2 in my ranking of the franchise, after...
I was not familiar with Psycho II, but the concept of the edit sounded so wild that I felt like I had to make it my first experience. ...
REWATCH 1/11/23: Watched Ray's recent Version 2 and it's a great update to an already solid edit. Some of my criticisms still stand, but the...
QUALITY I'll get the most negative aspect over with right away: the audio quality was very poor. I'm surprised to see no one has mentioned...
This is a fantastic concept and an edit I have wanted to watch for a while, so I was glad to finally stumble across it. One of those ones I...
Ray Danger has made a very admirable effort to fix up what is typically considered to be a pretty mediocre sequel. The use of quick cuts and music changes is...
This is a neat concept and one that is probably worth pursuing beyond the trailer, should INIGHTMARES choose to go down that road. If he does, I'll gladly watch it....
I once started watching the theatrical cut. Apparently, I wasn't in the mood, because I rarely DNF, but I was barely half an hour in before I became bored and...
Disclaimer: I haven't seen this since I was a child, when the film was always experienced at the hands of the VHS player. I picked up the blu-ray pretty much...
I've been away from the forums for a bit and will be running away again after I drop this review. Life has demanded it. But I saw the release for...
Disclaimer: I've seen the theatrical cut once and Hal's edit once, so I am not crazy familiar with the material. Frankly, the editing felt botched in the theatrical, so if...
QUALITY I watched the largest file size available and it looked excellent. No complaints. Surround sound too - yay! ...
QUALITY Quality is decent. The cropping to 16:9 naturally means a reduced resolution. VISUAL EDITING ...
QUALITY Quality is decent overall, but some odd scenes look to be more heavily compressed with some noticeable artifacts. I know that trailers are used...
Meant to watch this a while ago... sorry it took me so long! Been about 8 years since I've seen the theatricals, so hopefully my observations are relatively untainted by...
QUALITY For me, Glass and Split quality ranges between 8.5 and 9. Some scenes have some visible compression, but generally the footage looks good. Unbreakable...
I watched through all of the original Twin Peaks and Fire Walk With Me recently. I was going to watch The Missing Pieces before moving onto The Return, but I...
QUALITY Quality is decent, but not peak for an HD source. Visual is a little soft in places and the rich reds of Mars betray...
QUALITY Quality is often difficult to rate with a Grindhouse edit... it's MEANT to look bad... right? From my perspective, the majority of this...
(Ratings are an average, reflecting the overall experience) I have reviewed the shorts separately on their individual pages, so this is really more of...
This here: the ONLY fan-mix in the Animation Consecution (at least, in the sense of merging unrelated material)! We need more of this kind of thing. I love a good...
MKV. Generally well put together. There's a drop in quality for a couple of the night shots, but otherwise things look very crisp. I noticed two audio fades, and a...
Watched the MKV. Some noticeable compression in darker areas, otherwise quality seemed very good. This functioned well enough as a standalone story, but I still...
This felt pretty rushed, if I'm honest. It starts off with some kind of narrative, but then sort of turns into a fever dream. I wasn't really sure what to...
The opening prologue is a little choppy visually, but otherwise this works well and I didn't pick up on many transitions. There did seem to be a number of audio...
I hope I don't come across as harsh, but this edit feels like a missed opportunity. What it amounts to is an episode of Futurama cut down to 15 minutes,...
This is a very effective trimming of a feature film into short format. Nothing felt amiss in the narrative and I didn't notice a single transition. It honestly makes me...
I thought that a couple of visual edits/fades were a bit quick, but otherwise, this is a simple and well-executed short. Musical cues are timed well and a clear visual...
Objectively: This is a simple and concise short made up of material relating to the Ishval war in Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood. I didn't notice any transitions and on a...
Quality is various shades of SD, with occasional issues. Aside from some interlacing, frame-blending and dropped frames, the visual editing is otherwise superb and very creative. The only audio editing...
Use of colour and general visual realisation is excellent. Narrative is simple and concise. SFX sporadically drops out leaving just the score and I noticed one audio transition. A very...
There are some jarring cuts here and audio levels fluctuate. Sound is much too crisp as well and i think the concept would have been better sold with mono audio...
The choice of font and grindhouse effects aren't great. I didn't personally think the music was that appropriate either since it's too consistently lively and not really dynamic enough. Nevertheless,...
Quality is SD with the odd issue, it can be difficult to keep track of what's going on due to quick cuts and shaky-cam footage, and the shift in colour...
Quality: SD source. Looks more or less as good as my DVD. I actually watched the Carnage episodes on Disney Plus afterwards and it looked...
Update 9/12/21 - The only audio transition I picked up is in the original, so rating is updated to 10. The bad fade at 1:30-1:31 and the still image at...
Quality: No obvious signs of compression. Looks as crisp as it should for an HD source of an old b movie. ...
Took me far too long to get to this! And I'm sorry I couldn't have seen it sooner. Great to have finally watched it though. ...
