DTS-HD MA

Video: 69

The Blu-ray release of 'Night of the Creeps' by Scream Factory uses the same 1.85:1 AVC encoded transfer from 2009, which offers solid clarity and color reproduction but suffers from minor crush issues and some grain spikes in darker scenes. Both the theatrical and director’s cuts are presented on separate BD-50 discs with good detail and texture preservation.

Audio: 78

The Blu-ray’s 5.1 DTS-HD MA track retains its clear, dynamic audio with engaging surround mixes and clean dialogue, despite occasional minor dips in volume. The added 2.0 DTS-HD MA downmix is ideal for night listening, preserving the original stereo mix while enhancing ambient and low-frequency effects.

Extra: 94

The 2-disc collector’s edition of *Night of the Creeps* Blu-ray features comprehensive extras including a five-part making-of documentary, career retrospectives, new cast interviews, and two audio commentaries, which offer in-depth insights from writer/director Fred Dekker and the film's actors, along with a tour of filming locations.

Movie: 78

Fred Dekker’s 'Night of the Creeps' from 1986, now a cult classic, offers a nostalgic homage to 1950s B-movies while blending 80s sensibilities. Presented in both theatrical and director's cuts, the film merges horror, comedy, and sci-fi with memorable effects and performances, most notably by Tom Atkins.
