'Bordercross' is currently only available in the 'Danny Trejo Double Feature release from Echo Bridge alongside 'Chavez Cage of Glory.'
BroderCross' 1080p image is unsurprisingly imperfect but is, on the whole, largely watchable. Noise spikes in various scenes, black levels are reduced in places, and banding is evident across numerous backgrounds. Those issues aside, details are fair, with modest textural intricacy and decent facial detail on display. Environments struggle to truly excel, whether a cruddy small-town motel or a dingy prison cell. Colors lack vitality and intensity but find enough essential saturation and prominence to carry the visuals.
Echo Bridge has released BorderCross in a 5.1 lossless configuration, but the presentation does not take advantage of the added surround channels, maintaining an almost exclusively front end listen. Music lacks verve, effects are flat, and the film's low-rent production values carry over to the soundtrack, which is not particularly well engineered, dynamic, or able to offer more than the most simplistic baseline sound details. Gunfire heard in chapter 10 sounds like pop guns, lacking any kind of distinguishing characteristic. Dialogue at least presents with front-middle placement and decent clarity, though there's the occasional tinny vocal to be heard.
This Blu-ray release of BorderCross contains no special features.
BorderCross is a flat, uninteresting story of a father in search of his missing son in small-town Texas. It's a film made on the cheap and stumbles through poor editing, insipid performances, dull music, and the list goes on. It's a shoddy production with little redeeming value. Echo Bridge's Blu-ray, which is currently only available in the two-film Danny Trejo Double Feature, features passable video, flat audio, and no extras. Skip it.
