Looks good! Does anyone know if the extras are the same as the Scream Factory edition?
P.S. - Hoping for a steel of "Amityville II." I prefer that one. Sleazy fun!

Mine was posted on Friday by Zavvi and arrived Saturday.
It's a very nice steelbook, and I'm so pleased they removed the text from the front. I wouldn't have minded it printed at the bottom like it is on the J-card, but having the front clear of it is even better.
I'd definitely pick up Amityville II The Possession, but I wouldn't hold my breath on it. Even if sales of this one are strong, there's little chance of any others I would have thought. Most studios don't bother with steelbooks for their sequels unless their modern or cult classics. There's no Jaws 2, Blair Witch 2, Highlander II The Quickening or Psycho II among others. I'm not sure it would be worth Second Sight's time getting hold of it from MGM or whoever owns the rights in the UK.

It's a fingerprint magnet
It's a matte sheen finish from what I can tell or zero finish
It was never listed as a gloss finish at any stage some previous second sight steelbooks was gloss finish but some also have been matte finish
The art cards are definitely a nice touch for a non premium release. Really looking forward to getting mine to check out the transfer and that new Brolin interview and all the new features.
The extras on the Blu-ray are worth the purchase alone
New interviews not previously available on other releases
There will be a amaray release at some stage later this year or next year but won't include the lobby cards
