Anyone know if Strange Case is to be released as a BluRay?

Apparently not. I'd imagine the original source doesn't warrant a BD release....

The DVD looks and sounds great!

I was curious about a BluRay version as well, mainly because when my BluRay player plays regular DVD's, the picture quality tends to look grainy.

Try turning off upscaling in the players menu options.

Bought this in 81`on Betamax. Definitely not going to buy it on DVD.
Worst Alice show I have ever seen. Far from what i consider as classic Alice.

- A thin and bad health looking Alice
- Terrible singing, or more like staccato talking.
- Broadwayish like show with a lot of dancers. Far from Killer Alice.
The Nightmare show also had dancers, but that show is ten times better.
- The Electric Chair sequence just looks silly
- Not good sound quality

Only good thing about it is the band who is playing very well.
It`s all in this luney tune....

Thanks for the tip! I'm not very tech savy. I couldn't find upscaling on mine, but I did find a way to soften the image without taking away from the resolution.

The preview clip posted on YouTube by Shout! Factory was not very promising, in my opinion. It looked or sounded MAYBE marginally better than what's already out there. I'll buy it for the sake of having an official copy on DVD (and who knows, maybe my opinion will change,) but not because I'm looking to be blown away ALA "Good To See You Again," which was a significant difference in quality all the way around the board from what was circulating before.

Definitely, the best version that I have ever seen!
