Audio goes DTS-HD Master for the English track and supports the unusual score - sounding very tight and clean. There is the optional of an Italian-language track but it is in lossy Dolby m- and frequently sounds weak. There are optional English subtitles and the Blu-ray disc is region FREE - playable world-wide.

Severin offer some good, home-grown, extras - some in Italian with English subtitles. Villa Parisi - Legacy of Terror is a 16-minute featurette on the historic house location. We get a 7.5-minute Peter Still Lives: Festival Q&A with actor Peter Bark and a 9-minute interview with actor Simone Mattioli entitled Just for the Money. The Smell Of Death spends almost 10-minites with Producer Gabriele Crisanti and actress Mariangela Giordano and there are a fully 10.5-minutes of deleted/ extended scenes/ shots plus a theatrical trailer.

Good release - different from the 88 Films Blu-ray but still offering plenty of value in multiple areas. Classic Zombie flic. Absolutely recommended!

ADDITION: 88 Films - Region 'B' - Blu-ray (May 2016): Zombie Mania! Great job by Films 88 - we get the 35mm, unrestored, Grindhouse version (1:24:21 - 15,747,889,152 bytes - 22 Mbps - LPCM - English only - no subs) filled with plenty of marks and scratches, weaker contrast - but for fans - the inferiorities can have that 'Grindhouse' charm that gives it appeal.

The theatrical (titled 'The Night of Terror') looks decent on a dual-layered disc. It is in the 1.66:1 aspect ratio and has more information on the top and bottom of the frame when compared to the Shriek Show DVD from 2002. It is darker with a greenish cast over the image but looked pleasing in-motion. There is some heaviness and texture but not knowing the film well, and only comparing to the SD and unrestored Grindhouse, I can only say it looks superior to those.

Audio has both English and Italian tracks restored and transferred in uncompressed linear PCM. It sounds as imperfect as the original production limitations. It's clear and dialogue audible. The effects have some depth. It's an odd score by Elsio Mancuso + Berto Pisano but tends to work with the frantic Zombie-infused story. There are optional English subtitles and the Blu-ray disc is region 'B'-locked.

Aside from the Grindhouse addition - extras include a new, excellent, audio commentary by John Martin, moderated by Calum Waddell (on theatrical version only.) There is an interesting 27-minute interview with Mikel J. Koven - author of La Dolce Morte: Vernacular Cinema and the Italian Giallo Film, a trailer, 10-minutes of deleted scenes (no audio) and a 4-minute Zombie Holocaust Trailer. The package contains a collectable postcard and has a reversible sleeve.

Giallo and/or Zombie fans should be in their Nirvana with Burial Ground and the Films 88 Blu-ray package has a lot of value with both the Grindhouse version, commentary and Koven interview. It's hard not to enjoy this film for what it is. Absolutely recommended!
