Terrible transfer from a bad source

I did enjoy "Prince of Darkness," once upon a time. I'm a John Carpenter fan. But as a more mature viewer, the film is more a collection of scenes and scientific theories--involving tachyons!--stuck to a bizarre premise (what if the Catholic Church has been keeping "the devil" in a tube in a church basement in LA for roughly 500 years?) rather than a coherent tale. My main problem with this re-issue of the film is that it looks TERRIBLE in 4K. There was NO remastering done that I can see. On my big 4K TV, the dark scenes were full of visual "noise" and "artifacts." It looked like the film was transferred from a bad VHS copy to 4K.
