My edition:

@Noodles is the Dog Soldiers PQ same old ... Thanks !
Literally just got it today so haven't been able to check it yet. However, I've heard it's an improvement over the previous release, but still not great unfortunately. I actually read a comment on Twitter a few weeks back by someone who was either involved with the film itself or just the new transfer (sorry I can't remember who exactly), and they were very honest in saying the quality still isn't great, but that this is probably the best it's ever going to look due to the original copy being crap or something along those lines.

Tried to find the tweet again, but no such luck I'm afraid. I did come across this one however...

I also heard that buying the 4K edition would be pointless, since the film is in such bad shape - and the blu ray is really as good as it is gonna get.
Also- skip bleaching it would just take more color out - dunno why he would want to do that (unless he want the palette completely changed to a more black and white-ish look).

The new 4K transfer looks a lot better to me *shrug*
 
I'm just passing on third party anecdotal opinion! I have not seen it for myself.
(Actually, I have never seen the film period!)
I'm just going by the comparison screens I posted above -- this is definitely an improvement over the Scream Factory transfer IMO.

There's some more shot-by-shot comparisons here if anyone's interested... https://caps-a-holic.com/c.php?d1=12963&d2=5950&c=2418

P.S. Get it watched!

Just never got around to it, since I have not been a fan of any of his other films.
But, I'm slightly curious.
