I feel like they have bested Image and AB on a couple occasions. There TCM is great-looking, their ASYLUM is way better than the Image DVD, they also released much-improved DVDs of TRILOGY OF TERROR, SPIDER BABY, DEVIL'S RAIN, and EATEN ALIVE. On the whole I'm fairly enthusiastic about them.

I wish their DVD of COUNT DRACULA had the woman searching for her stolen infant, but it's much nicer-looking that the Kinowelt and Spanish imports.
I tend to think Image would have done just fine had they been willing or able to revisit those titles. Well, maybe not Image, they've kinda lost the plot when it comes to these sorts of things themselves.

Point being, those were all early, non-anamorphic discs that *somebody* was gonna revisit. And outside of a VCI CHILDREN-style cock-up, they would have to be considered improvements.

I don't think Dark Sky's COUNT DRACULA looks as good as it ought to, just better than its competition.

I think my biggest issue with Dark Sky is probably connected to their deal with MONSTERS HD - the whole '1.78:1 fits all' thing. HORROR OF PARTY BEACH last night really put me off.
