  WSR Narrative Review
Story Synopsis:
Se7en meets Silence Of The Lambs. Or so the box says on the cover of H. But don

DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced 2.40:1 DVD picture exhibits a generally pleasing quality. The picture offers satisfying sharpness and detail, and the white English subtitles are crisp and clean.

There are minor cases of stairstepping artifacts and occasional pixelization, as well as edge halos. (Suzanne Hodges)

Soundtrack:
