A Haunting in Venice on Blu-ray impresses with its AVC encoded 1080p transfer, offering remarkable detail and vivid color dynamics, despite lacking a 4K UHD release. Captured in 6K on Sony CineAlta and finished with a 4K DI, the disk maintains consistent deep blacks, natural skin tones, and striking low-light visuals.

Audio: 90

"A Haunting in Venice" offers a compelling audio experience with its DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 mix, delivering crystal clear dialogue and robust dynamics. Although lacking the full spatial audio of Dolby Atmos, it excels in surround activity, directional effects, and LFE for immersive engagement.

Extra: 35

The Blu-ray extras for 'A Haunting in Venice' provide an engaging look at the film's production through an insightful featurette, 'Murder, Death, and Haunting,' with 26 minutes of interviews and behind-the-scenes content, complemented by 11 deleted scenes offering pacing trims, yet lacking substantial narrative impact, plus a redeemable digital code.

Movie: 73

A Haunting in Venice" marks Kenneth Branagh's most visually ambitious Poirot adaptation, blending eerie post-WWII Venice settings with a chilling whodunnit. Branagh's cinematography, marked by innovative framings and atmospheric tension, complements a stellar ensemble cast, delivering a refreshing spin on Agatha Christie's lesser-known "Hallowe’en Party.
