      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Elvira, Mistress Of The Dark heads to small town Massachusetts for the reading of her Great Aunt

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD picture exhibits a dated picture with weak color saturation. The picture also has a soft appearance, but details are adequate. Some film grain and flecks of dirt are inherent in the source element There is no bothersome edge enhancement, just some pixelization. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #15 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    This is THE magazine that presents all that I need to have to evaluate and buy equipment, know what’s up in the industry, and which provides a listing of DVD reviews and release schedules. In short, it is an almanac for reference, opinion, and knowledge. I must say that I have read just about every magazine that deals with home theatre that has been published. Widescreen is more professional, more comprehensive, and more up-to-date than the rest. I have read the rest, but I am staying with the best.
