It looks pretty much the same, because my DVD capture program is finicky; it tends to soften up the image. I admit that this is a problem with a movie like Darkman due to it being a new DVD, but it's one I'm not terribly concerned about.

As for Island of Terror, that movie is just old, the print the DVD uses is a bit bad, and some scenes look a bit soft or washed out; but you'll get no complaining from me. I'm grateful there even is a DVD for it.
