Shame

Great Presentation and Features

A very strong release with a stylish look, an engaging script, and a solid overall presentation. The transfer looks clean while still keeping the original character of the film intact. The bonus features add nice value and make this feel like a well-rounded collector’s edition.

Solid restoration for a tough, gritty Aussie thriller

Shame is a tough, emotionally charged Australian thriller that balances exploitation elements with a surprisingly strong feminist core, led by an excellent performance from Deborra-Lee Furness. The film’s direct, no-frills storytelling gives its themes of misogyny and small-town violence real impact, even when the pacing occasionally feels uneven. The Umbrella Entertainment Blu-ray delivers a solid restoration, with natural colors and improved detail that help the dusty rural setting feel vivid and oppressive.

It's A Shame This One Had To End!

The director of this really awesome flick's voice was heard loud and clear through the terrific job he did! The performances were really good, as was the storyline. I thoroughly enjoyed this one and didn't want it to end! The peerless VS restoration process was on full display with stellar sound and picture! Thank you, VS, for continuing to lovingly restore and release so many wonderful films from every conceivable genre! You are keeping physical media alive in this streaming world we now live in! Highly recommended!
