George Sluizer's gripping thriller The Vanishing comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.66:1. French and Dutch soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital Mono. English subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials are limited to the original theatrical trailer. Although this Criterion disc carries a high list price considering it is short on extras, the quality of the film and the widescreen transfer make it worth seeing.
