Nowhere To Hide
Reviewed by: Keith Hennessey Brown
Read Keith Hennessey Brown's film review of Nowhere To HidePicture quality on this R2 DVD from Tartan is good, doing full justice to the film's striking visuals. Sometimes the subtitles can be difficult to make out, though this is down to the source print itself and, with the film not being terribly dialogue driven, doesn't matter too much.
Extras wise, it's a pretty poor show.
The filmographies, stills gallery and liner notes are the usual bog-standard stuff, on which minimal effort looks to have been expended.
The Asia Extreme trailer reel disappoints. With Tartan launching this new label, you'd expect a showcase for new, upcoming product. Instead, you get trailers for four old releases - the three Ring films plus Audition and Battle Royale. Unless Ring and Audition are to be re-released as markedly better packages than the existing discs, it doesn't inspire much confidence in the range of product available from the new label.
The package is completed by the Nowhere to Hide trailer and a Windows and MacOS-compatible screensaver.
Nowhere to Hide is one of those discs you'd buy for the film, not the DVD package.
