    International Warning Shadows (Schatten) 4K restoration Blu-Ray / Redwood Creek Films (France)

    Please don't take it the wrong way, but that made me laugh! And please watch it, I'd love to hear your comments. You really don't have to watch it in full though. I've bough it as well, and the case was closed after just 5mn. I jumped forward here and there to be sure, watched the special...

    International Warning Shadows (Schatten) 4K restoration Blu-Ray / Redwood Creek Films (France)

    I understand and can only relate to this. I didn't know they had a good release on their resume. The other release I heard from was "L'inferno", and according to some of the backers then, it was a similar botched job and disappointment:

    I'm sorry to hear that, and I salute you for your honesty. I read some of your previous posts in another thread, promoting this release with enthusiasm.

    DVDFREAK has reviewed Redwood Creek's "4K restoration" of Warning Shadows ("Schatten" / 1923), and boy, this one's a doozy. I sympathize with those who shelled out 50€ + shipping fees for this... :oops:
