Ha LMFAO! I was just about to praise Zavvi for a moment there, getting a true exclusive and actually trying to bring something fresh to the "home of Steelbookz"

Glad it's got steelbook treatment for the fans on here, but another fail by Zavvi pretending to have a world first!

Laughable !!

I mean, I know it's Zavvi and you have to take it with a grain of salt, but this does say ULTRA limited. Considering most things that are listed as "limited" have around a 2,000 print run...do you guys really think this will still be available that far in the future? With it being "ultra limited", I could see this having like a 500 print run, and selling out a lot faster than usual.

It will be at least a 1000 print run, Zavvi have been doing that of late.

But in the past they have said ultra limited and the print run has been 2000 a la Drag me to Hell for example.

However I can see this selling out at some stage as this is quite an obscure film that not a lot of people have heard of and will tempt collectors in to a blind buy and fans of the movie alike.

And Zavvi claiming it to be a world first, yeah right, but probably is quite scarce across the world, I think it may still do well.

But won't be an instant sell out I think, I could be wrong though!

[Aw 83]

I thought the same thing @Steelselecta Zavvi doing something unique and special for once which will be interesting but then the truth got revealed thanks for the pic view @luke98...

In Zavvi speak "limited" = 4000 and "ultra-limited" = 2000. They are struggling to shift some of their other ultra-limited releases at £5.99, and this a cult arthouse film with a limited audience.

I think the key word is 'official'. The reviews indicate that it is a very poor quality disc and is probably not an authorised release.

And 'The Voices', a relatively new movie at 2000 copies. Which is now a 1/3 cheaper after release in July.

But more to do with the main topic - I've not heard of this movie which surprises me considering it was released in 1990 and looks like a potential classic. Speaking of niche film how about a Steelbook release of 'A Pigeon Sat on a Branch Reflecting on Existence'.

Lol, that's exactly what they were hoping for by putting ULTRA in the title a while back. Even the "ultra limited" 2000 copies don't sell out and drop dramatically in price.

Do we have any discount codes for this tomorrow? Or are we all still rockin' ZVC5? (If that is even a a working code anymore).
OP should mention the 2000 print run.

(Too obscure a joke?!!!)
