Brotherhood of the Wolf (2001) aka Le Pacte des loups, directed by Christophe Gans, director's cut, StudioCanal 4k remaster, encoded in 10 bit HEVC with AAC sound, including French 7.1 remaster, two commentary tracks, and subtitles in five languages (including subtitles for the commentary tracks)
IMDb : https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0237534/
Video encoded in two-pass 11.0 Mbps x265 10bit with the veryslow preset for archive quality image. Audio encoded separately with Apple AAC for the highest-quality AAC sound available. Subtitles converted to VobSub and repositioned.
Note : Before Christophe Gans directed the Silent Hill movie, his biggest hit was this piece of maximalist genre-blending, a martial arts monster action horror movie set in 18th century France, featuring secret societies, plots against the king, Vatican spies, an Iroquis Native American doing kung fu, and a huge, spiky, possibly supernatural man-eating beast stalking the countryside. If this seems like a lot, it is, it's bursting at the seams almost as much as Monica Belluci's corset, but it somehow works, being always wildly entertaining. Lead actor Samuel Le Bihan is fine, but struggles a bit with the rest of the cast constantly being more interesting or charismatic, from Mark Dacascos to Émilie Dequenne, Monica Bellucci, Vincent Cassel, Philippe Nahon, and Gaspard Ulliel. Visually it's also very lavish, suffering maybe a bit from a surfeit of color grading, as films in the early 2000s often did, but it feels right, and is well worth watching.
Fronsac, a knight and naturalist, arrives in Gévaudan with his Iroquois companion Mani, on a mission from the king to investigate and possibly capture a mysterious beast that's been terrorizing the countryside. Once there, he develops an interest in a local count's daughter and her brother, who was a hunter before his arm was mangled overseas. He also gets involved with a courtesan at a local brothel, but just as the beast is revealed to possibly be more than just an animal, the king's weapon's master arrives to kill it, and Fronsac is sent back to Paris. However, he realizes a conspiracy against the king might be behind the killings, and sets out to the countryside again, beset on all sides by enemies and schemers with their own designs.
This is a very nice 4k remaster, subtle but present grain, excellent color and contrast, nice and crisp. The 7.1 remaster sounds good too, and the commentary tracks are both informative and entertaining.
Hot tip

HeVK torrents always have lots of keywords. Try searching for “ hevk creature horror” for more monsters stalking the unwary, “ hevk martial arts” for more kicking and flipping, or “ hevk french” for more from a country whose output has been nothing if not eccentric throughout the decades.
