maxmercy Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I was very surprised at how good this film was....but I had zero expectations for it. The bass was just icing. JSS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nube Posted June 11, 2014 Author Share Posted June 11, 2014 It is a surprisingly good film in every way. I was totally immersed each time I watched it - but you gotta watch it with the Norwegian audio track and subtitles to get the full effect. Not saying the tracks are any different, but the English dubbed track is terribad. Here are some SpecLab scenecaps: The scenes are full of hot content mostly in the 25Hz+ range, with good weight 15Hz on up, but, come the ending starting around 1:30:00 mark, the effects appropriately gain a ton of weight down low. Those 3-4Hz hits are significant, frequent, and shocking when they happen, if you have a system that can reproduce them. More people should pick this title up. It's sorta like Blair Witch, done right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MemX Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I'm liking that deep stuff with little going on above it! I reckon a lot of people (i.e. everyone with a ported system) will say that bit is rubbish lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wth718 Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I think I may have become a Bass curmudgeon. Even when I give it 5 stars I instinctively give a Rent. Sigh. Haven't watched it in a couple years, but I do remember liking the movie after a first, prematurely aborted attempt to watch it. The bass was a bonus. Switching to Buy.

Audiofan1 Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Funny I just went back in and the Blu Ray option popped up ! I was hoping not to blind buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lfe man Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 End scene could have better bass in footstomps on that huge troll (wasn't much under 25hz bass and amplitude in those). Great movie anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audiofan1 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Great flick ! great bass, along with some serious infrasonic pressure, Thanks for the heads up on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
