This is up on Netflix UK now. I gotta say too, the screener I reviewed a few months back didn't look as good as this.
It looks really nice on Flix, and I'd imagine a good Blu will look even better. Great colours though, nice framing and great cinematography. I love some of the bright reds and blues too, brings to mind 70's Giallo films, particularly something like Suspiria.

I'm surprised and don't know why some of the versions circulating don't look good, the US Blu-ray is pristine and as far as I could look the German one as well... Because yeah, it's a very nicely shot, framed and lit film!

It is available on US and Australian Netflix as well. I'll definitely give it a watch.

From Variety:
30 Scariest Horror Movies Streaming in Time for Halloween

Don’t Kill It (2016)
Service: Netflix

Fans of body-hopping horror movies like “The Hidden,” “Fallen,” and “Shocker” will feel right at home with this ultra-gory action pic about a black-eyed demon that leaps from host to host each time it is killed. Wielding an arsenal of crazy weapons and a quip for every occasion, Dolph Lundgren is in fine form playing a professional demon hunter who leads the charge against the supernatural stowaway. Director Mike Mendez, whose “Big Ass Spider” appeared in the creature feature category, once again delivers plenty of bang for not much buck. From the dynamic opening massacre scene to the explosive finale, “Don’t Kill It” is a bloody good time.

Netflix Pick: Dolph Lundgren Is All The Reasons Why In ‘Don’t Kill It’ (2017)

WHY YOU NEED TO WATCH: Well right away, what’s not to like? How ingenious is the set up where killing the monster only makes it stronger? Aside from the sharp story, it’s Lundgren who makes this beast so fun. Never quite going for cheesy, he tackles this with a smart balance of whimsy and authenticity, creating a very memorable character that really could have been the center of a whole series of films. He’s endlessly watchable and along with Mendez’s solid direction and a few really well-executed action scenes, this makes for a surprisingly good time. It’s streaming on Netflix right now.

11. Don’t Kill It
Don’t Kill It is a fun amalgam of horror, action, comedy, and western from director Mike Mendez (Big Ass Spider). A rash of homicides - in which each killer murders the previous killer - lead FBI agent Evelyn Pierce (Kristina Klebe, Halloween) back to the podunk Mississippi town she once called home in order to investigate the case. She reluctantly teams with Jebediah Woodley (Dolph Lundgren, Rocky IV), a self-described demon hunter, to stop the body-hopping demon on the loose. There are a couple of big, bloody set pieces that make the abundance of exposition worthwhile. Clocking in at a lean 83 minutes, the film plays like a more charming and entertaining version of a Syfy original movie.
