1.0 out of 5 stars Nothing short of FOISTAGE, April 11, 2004

This review is from: The Night Evelyn Came Out of the Grave (DVD)

I am delighted to see the universal intolerance voiced here with SD's little DVD of one of the most important of the 1970's Italian Sex & Horror Show movies. THE NIGHT EVELYN CAME OUT OF THE GRAVE is a total classic, with a showcase appearance by Erika "LEGS" Blanc as a stripper involved with a plot to drive a wealthy young duke out of his skull. Classy, filled with great colorful sets, "cool" music and a fabulous modernist look, this is a Giallo that really isn't a Giallo at all & sort of mocks that specific sub-sect of Italian horror by having the killer wearing yellow gardening gloves [Giallo is Italian for "yellow"] instead of the usual sexy black variety.

With that said, you'll be better served buying one of the cheapo fullframe releases from Alpha Video or on one of the Brentwood Home Video box sets TALES FROM THE BONEYARD and FRIGHT NIGHT: This is a reburn of Sinister Cinema's DVD-R release, which suspiciously found it's way into the market about 6 - 10 weeks before this release and wasn't even transferred at the proper aspect ratio by SD, which is why the picture looks "squished" -- all of Sinister's widescreen releases are optimized for 16:9 screens with the flick of a switch, but sadly nobody told SD's technicians this before they ripped off the transfer.

So whatever: If you want a codefree reburn of Sinister's work that appears to have been engineered by circus chimps who had acess to DVI technology, here you go. Just be forewarned that it will look awful, you'll want your money back, and then you can come here & share your pain with us. We feel for you, and want to try and help.

1.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely unbelievable!, September 13, 2004

This review is from: The Night Evelyn Came Out of the Grave (DVD)

It indicates on the DVD's case that this film has been digitally transferred. One would then expect that the film would present a crystal-clear image with vibrant colors. Well, expect again - this DVD is a piece of crap!

The colors are washed-out, the images are fuzzy, and the aspect ratio is all wrong! Automobiles look like they are three feet long and six feet tall! The gorgeous Erika Blanc is made to look as though she is twelve feet tall and suffering from terminal anorexia nervosa. The DVD is watchable with effort, but keep aspirin nearby in case you get a headache from focusing on the distorted images.

If you get a chance to see a good print of the famous Italian mystery from the 1970s, please do so - you will enjoy it. However, leave this edition alone!

1.0 out of 5 stars Most of it is missing!, April 17, 2000

By	Tony Lane (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Night Evelyn Came Out of the Grave [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This tape was made from a TELEVISION release of the film. For that reason all of the nudity and much of the story have been cut. This is a FUN movie when it is all in one piece. Let's hope somebody releases a full version one of these days!
