Predator Blu Ray Quadrilogy

Post by Alan_Schaeffer »

I was wondering if anyone owns this set and if so how are the transfers of the first 3 films and have they got all the special features from the DVD's? Cheers in advance for any help given.

I myself have the US UltraHD set, which also carries the Blu-ray. I will note on all blu-rays of the first film are the same with over-DNRed picture. (DNR = Digital Noise Reduction aka grain removal.) The first release contained a dated MPEG-2 transfer. So the UltraHD is the way to go in both resolution and picture quality. As it restores the film grain. As for extras the last 4-movie set should carry all the that were on the DVDs unless otherwise. Use Comparison Search: Predator, for further info on extras.

This should give you an idea of picture quality for the first 3 films:

Yes, all 4K (UltraHD) disc region free (ALL). You will find all that sort of info if just look up the titles on our site.

Plus, just to clarify, the Blu-ray that comes with the first film is the same DNRed disc from previous releases. The UltraHD disc where the film grain is intact.
