Prom Night II: Hello Mary Lou

The presentation of this Region 2 PAL DVD from Network is a disappointment.

Whereas the packaging identifies the picture as being 1.85:1 widescreen, I found it played at approximately 1.33:1, although the presence of the boom mike on occasion perhaps suggests an open matte production. Less excusable, however, is the poor quality of the image, with some quite considerable dirt, grain and artefacting that gives the impression of a straight video port at times.

The stereo English sound is better by comparison, though certainly nothing special.

The only extra is the film's trailer, again presented in roughly Academy ratio.
