While 'The Resurrected' may not be flawless, the new Blu-ray transfer from Scream Factory enhances its Lovecraftian horror with solid clarity, top-tier extras, and engaging audio.

DTS-HD MA

Video: 56

The Resurrected's Blu-ray has a 1.85:1 AVC encoded transfer with a 2K master, elevating it above previous DVD releases. While the image retains some softness and minor print damage, clarity is overall good with robust colors and deep blacks. Fine details are more evident, though some scenes remain out of focus.

Audio: 59

The Resurrected's 2.0 DTS-HD MA track, while adhering to its original 2.0 stereo mix, produces clean dialogue and satisfactory ambient effects despite a thin mix and minimal LFE, though occasional analog sounds and uneven quality due to age and damage are noticeable.

Extra: 93

The Blu-ray extras of 'The Resurrected' offer an engaging and comprehensive dive into the film's production, featuring a 2K remaster, in-depth interviews with cast and crew, including Jane Sibbett, S.T. Joshi, Chris Sarandon, and Brent V. Friedman, as well as deleted scenes, trailers, and a 1992 Chainsaw Awards clip.

Movie: 63

The Resurrected successfully adapts H.P. Lovecraft’s unsettling story into an atmospheric horror-detective hybrid, highlighted by Chris Sarandon's dual performance and a distinctive Lovecraftian aura, despite some sluggish pacing and less engaging secondary performances. A commendable effort by Dan O’Bannon.
