And Then There Were None (1945)

Crime, Drama, Mystery • 1h 38m

Overview

Ten strangers are summoned to a remote island and while they are waiting for the mysterious host to appear, a recording levels serious accusations at each of the guests. Soon they start being murdered, one by one. As the survivors try to keep their wits, they reach a disturbing conclusion: one of them must be the killer.

Kino Lorber "raw' version or VCI replacement Blu-ray, no comparison available 

See DVDBeaver for the whole fiasco but Kino Lorber's main feature was a DNR mess but it fortunately included the "raw" version. VCI initially had a bitrate < 10 Mbps but have sent out new disc with bitrate around 35 Mbps.

UCLA has a new restoration done in 2015, but no release yet

Additional Info:

Only VCI has optional subtitle and commentaries, while Kino Lorber doesn't
