From Dusk Till Dawn (1996) Blu-rays UPDATED

[Brent_Reid]

Several of the specs are incorrect or incomplete.

Canada - Alliance (original): is actually 1.78:1 (I own it).

Canada Alliance (re-release steelbook): has an audio drop-out at 1:22:47 when Jacob is getting bitten by Sex Machine.*

America - Echo Bridge: the listing has a note correcting the claimed AR on the sleeve, of 1.85:1... But the correction is wrong! The AR is indeed 1.85:1. Confusing.**

America - Lions Gate: is a repackaged port of the Echo Bridge, so also 1.85:1.*** It also has an added digital/UV copy (photo in thread link below).

United Kingdom - Lions Gate: is actually 1.78:1. According to a forum poster the deleted scenes commentary is forced rather than optional.

All of the ARs can be verified via Caps-a-holic. It's worth adding a footnote along the lines of:
All releases have exactly the same transfer, except for the region 0 Canadian Alliance. The two variants are very different and many have a definite preference.

*Mentioned several times, commencing here. Unknown if a fault with the original master or specific to this transfer. As all BDs (except the original Aliance) use the same master, it can be easily checked.
**The sleeve is in two variants: initially it claimed a 1.78:1 AR and had a rear image from FDTD 3, but was later corrected.
***As confirmed, commencing here.

If they all have the same transfer, Does this mean they all have the audio dropout at 82 minutes, like the Canadian Steelbook?

I don't know, James. It took me hours to compile the above info and I looked especially hard to see if any other BDs are affected. It just needs someone to check who owns any other disc than the Echo Bridge or two Canadian BDs. There must be plenty here who can help!

Since it's unclear, I opened a thread here asking for others to check if possible:

Thank you!

Nice one. You might want to edit your comment to point out it has the same transfer as all other BDs bar one, so others could be affected.
