BLU RAY VERSION
Added 1/15/2010
BLU-RAY VERSION IS WORTH BUYING. I DON'T NEED TO TELL YOU ABOUT THE MOVIE, OTHERS ALREADY HAVE. BUT, NOT TOO MANY PEOPLE TELL YOU IF IT IS WORTH UPGRADING FROM YOUR REGULAR DVD TO BLU-RAY. THIS ONE IS WORTH IT. COLORS ARE STUNNING AND SOUNDS GREAT.

Not a bad film for what it's worth. The first time through I was maybe expecting more but the blu is worth a purchase.

Like A Surgeon...
Added 9/19/2009
Jack The Ripper has fascinated generations of would-be detectives (including myself). The fact that this legendary serial-murderer was never caught has always brought chills. FROM HELL takes some theories about the case, mixes them w/ facts, and adds a bleak air of dread and doom. Johnny Depp (Sleepy Hollow, Ed Wood, The Ninth Gate, Sweeny Todd) plays an opium-addicted police inspector, drawn into the action due to his ability to "see" certain future events in his dreams. Heather Graham is the sweet yet tough prostitute, Mary Kelly, who assists in the investigation. Ian Holm (Alien, Brazil, The Fifth Element, Lord Of The Rings) plays a kindly old doctor w/ extremely valuable information. Thick w/ symbology, conspiracy, and mystery, FROM HELL plays (somewhat) like a Sherlock Holmes story, w/ elements of horror sewn in. This is a great movie for Depp fanatics, as he comes through once again. Robbie Coltrane (Harry Potter And The...) is wonderfully low-key in his Watson-esque role as Depp's assistant. Highly recommended...

ALL of this edition DEFECTIVE!
Added 9/8/2009
Rotten or NO QUALITY CONTROL - 4 out of 4 sets that I've tried have defective menus - They are so messed up and unwatchable that in some cases the bonus material cannot be activated - Thus making this 2 disc edition utterly useless! The film portion on the first disc plays normally (its menus are also unwatchable.
The film itself is very good - A clever "twist" on the Ripper murders - and Depp, as usual is terrific, always fascinating and demanding more of himself.
