      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:


    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 2.40:1 DVD appears to be the same pleasing quality as the previously released DVD (reviewed in Issue 29). There is a small amount of edge enhancement noticed, as well as some pixelization, but otherwise the picture is quite impressive. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
