Black Scorpion, The (1957) [12880]

this is only for the diehard monster film lovers, i thought i was a diehard but i might not be :think:

picture quality is O.K. looks clean but also has a fuzzy feel to it, might be some type of
DNR or other thing?
some scratches and issue between reel changes but nothing that bad considering the film is from 1957.

there is a hiss throughout the entire film, and once the monsters come out there is a high pitched
sound that they make and it makes you turn the volume down.

side change is horrible, the scene fades to black, the next scene starts for about 10 seconds
then it changes side and continues the scene :problem:

film is 1:33 academy ratio, trailer at end is 1:85 but is matted and from what looks like a really bad
VHS transfer.

trailer is: first there was beast from 20,000. then THEM now the Black Scorpion!!!

overall this is a rare disc and one of the later pressed from 1998, so if you are missing this title you need to pick up one.
