Christine Penmark seems to have it all: a lovely home, a loving husband and the most "perfect" daughter in the world. But since childhood, Christine has suffered from the most terrible recurring nightmare.

Her "perfect" daughter's accomplishments include lying, theft and possibly much, much worse. Only Christine knows the truth about her daughter and only Christine's father knows the truth about her nightmare.

Heard about a colourised version but was unable to find any links, I guess it's only available on private trackers. I 'bit the bullet' and bought the file directly from the team that colourised it:

[Code] As is made clear above, the colourization work was unfortunately not done on the Blu-ray. The colour work itself is decent, probably subpar, but I've seen far worse. My main issue is the low frame rate, the 25FPS video isn't displaying 25 unique frames a second, you will notice this immediately.

Should you desire the highest quality available, here is a magnet link to a 16GB Blu-ray remux, note that it is in B&W:

Thanks. Sorry to say, but it looks aweful. The colorization wasn't done by professionals.
You can see how the colors flicker and changing thier tone all the time.

I've seen several absolute abominations in terms of colourisation that this looks acceptable. Seems that the worst of it is outside with tons of movement and objects; a stable scene inside is alright. I would not recommend playing this on a TV though, I watched it on my smaller monitor with the brightness lowered to reduce that flickering effect and oversaturation in certain places. I do prefer the B&W version for this horror, it gives it a 'darker' effect, I mainly got this out of curiosity!

Thank you for bought and sharing it! Especially using good posting formats and host. ❤️

Yes, it doesn't look ideal for the coloring, but it's worth seeing people's attention and attempts.

Although black and white have a unique style and flavor, the colors is more in line with the perception of the real world that most people see. That's why we always want to see richer information from dimensions.

Thank you for sharing your purchase with us, thecyanray! Despite the overall quality of the colorization, I still appreciate you posting it, along with that remux.

Even if I end up liking the original more, I am usually curious about the work done to upgrade or remaster media/movies/games. I hope your purchase was reasonable. :D
