Vamp [Blu-ray] [1986]



Not worthy to be classified as a Blu-Ray edition
I purchased this Blue Ray edition hoping it has a better transfer. Not at all. The movie lacks any special features and the transfer is VERY BAD. Even a video cassette would look better as the images are grainy and colors fade. I don't know why movie studios care to release such a BAD product hoping to take advantage of fans who wanted a better looking product. You don't need it, better buy it on DVD and there will be NO difference among both versions.

They really spent no time on this release.
So if you're not going to invest any time into a release, why even bother? The DVD that was previously released a few years ago actually had a decent amount of special features. This release? Not ONE. NOTHING. They couldn't even put those on this release? The only thing that the BluRay did better is spell Dedee Pfeiffer's name correctly on the front cover.

If you want just the movie, this would be fine for you. If you want a decent release with some really cool special features, try to track down the original DVD release, or if you already have it, don't bother "upgrading"...

Skip this and import the Arrow disc
The disc is absolute bare bones. No special features whatsoever.
If you enjoy this movie and would like to upgrade to blu, then import the Arrow disc from the UK.
Image's Midnight Madness Series has been a horrible experience for me so far. First the botched transfer for Hellraiser 2 and now a disc that's not worth keeping (I'm sending this back!) No more pre-orders from me for Image's discs. They are becoming the new Echo Bridge.
