Warning: sound only plays from right speaker - The Cold Room review by machotrouts
Rating is for film itself (to the best of my limited ability to judge it from this DVD!) rather than quality of release. This is not in releasable condition.
Left audio channel is missing. Googled and some Amazon reviewers report the same issue. Couldn't find any fix in TV settings, so had to play it on my laptop just to get sound in both ears (VLC Media Player: Audio > Stereo Mode > Right).
Only affects the film itself – the shrill blaring ident for "Elstree Hill Entertainment" plays in stereo, which is interesting, as I'd rather not draw attention to my brand if I was putting out DVDs this shoddy.
(And what's with the stock art face on the cover/menu? Not really the vibe of the film. I reverse image-searched it and got salons.)
