Black Sabbath review

Arrow Video's stunning restoration breathes new life into Bava's classic trilogy of terror

Considering the sizeable challenges the restoration team faced with Mario Bava's legendary horror anthology, this Blu-ray release of Black Sabbath is nothing short of miraculous. Both the Italian and US edits of the film boast wonderfully rich colour palettes and pleasingly natural levels of film grain throughout. The only extras on the HD platter are a chat-track and a fascinating featurette examining the differences between the two versions of the film. However, additional interviews and trailers can be found on the DVDs included in the set.

Black Sabbath, Arrow Video, Region B BD/R2 DVD, £23 Approx
HCC VERDICT: 4.5/5
