Kino Lorber's Blu-ray of *Twisted*, presented in 1080p with a 1.85:1 aspect ratio from a new 4K scan, offers excellent clarity and contrast despite occasional inconsistencies in detail and light fluctuation, particularly in panoramic shots and darker scenes. The overall image stability and color balance are commendable, providing a noticeable upgrade from the original DVD.

Audio: 88

The Blu-ray audio for 'Twisted' features English DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 and 2.0 tracks, offering clear dialogue and a robust score. While not groundbreaking, the 5.1 track provides excellent dynamic contrasts and effective ambient sound, making the viewing experience immersive and compelling.

Extra: 67

The Blu-ray extras of 'Twisted' range from director Phillip Kaufman’s detailed commentary on the film’s noir aspirations and San Francisco setting, to insightful featurettes on the movie’s psychological layers, police advisory roles, and key locations, complemented by deleted scenes with optional commentary and a vintage trailer.

Movie: 54

Twisted (2004) is a psychological thriller marred by a poor screenplay and amateurish characterizations, despite the film's commendable technical merits like Philip Kaufman's direction and Peter Deming's cinematography. The Blu-ray release by Kino Lorber provides valuable extras for a deeper dive into the film's creation.
