Sadly hit with the digital clean-up bug, it's obvious from the outset I Married a Monster from Outer Space loses much of its detail to the mastering process. Smooth faces and barely-there grain reduce the visual fidelity on what appears to be a fantastic print. There's hardly any damage to speak of. Ringing and edge enhancement both play a role too.

Gray scale performs exquisitely, black levels precise, gray scale clean, and contrast bright. It's difficult - even impossible - to know whether the visible chunkiness and artifacts are part of the encode or the noise reduction process. Since this disc is shared with Conquest of Space and that encode looks perfect, it's more likely the mastering process.

Audio

Crisp and precise, DTS-HD presents a stable mono track. Stock sound effects aside (with their evident age), the smooth score blends well with the slightly rough dialog. I Married a Monster from Outer Space isn't a premiere example of '50s audio, but it's sufficient.
