A great semi-sequel to the excellent original movie.
The plot is basically the same - you cheat on death - death haunts you and eventually hunts you down.
The video transfer (both widescreen and fullscreen) is great. There are no compression signs and the special effects looks absolutely spectacular. You will not forget the accident scene for a long, long time. Drive carefully, will ya? ;)
The DTS and DD 5.1 soundtracks are awesome. The surrounds are used throughout the movie and help a lot with the creepy atmosphere and, of course, the scares.
The menus are beautifully animated with sound.
The extras on this Infinifilm disc include a commentary by the crew, an extensive behind the scenes look with explanations about the special effects, 5 deleted scenes, several screen tests, an information track, an interactive card game, some documentaries about near-death-experiences, a scientific look at how scare we get in the movie, 2 music videos and some rich DVD-ROM content (wallpapers, an interactive game and a script-to-screen feature).
Bottom line - a truly fun movie with excellent sound and visuals and a superb disc to match. Don`t miss this one.
