I plan on doing an edit of The Thing sometime, and have been unsure which transfer to use. I currently own the initial universal release, but I know that in recent years Scream Factory and Arrow have also brought out new and different looking transfers - just wondering if anyone's taken the time to properly compare/has any strong opinions either way that would help my decision.
From this comparison I feel like the Arrow looks clearer and shows up the blue tint a bit:
It would be nice to see other contrasting scenes though.
I don't know much about the scream factory release other than that it apparently has a lot of special features (which is tempting). It is region A, however, which is problematic for me as a UK citizen.
I don't have a multi-region player, but I did randomly find once that a Region A blu-ray played fine on my computer and on nothing else. Is that normal with region A's?
