New artwork is horrible. They should have gone with the back art as the front - it's infinitely better. I'm amazed at Synapse's decision.

Horror steelbooks should always go with the original poster. Don't understand this trend of commissioning new art, which is invariably always worse. You only have to look at Arrow's 'Fall of the House of Usher' to see how good original artwork looks on steelbooks.

I have no recollection of this film from 'back in the day' and almost bought the Arrow release out of curiosity but decided to wait...Im glad I did as it was on lovefilm so I watched it a week or so ago and it was quite possibly one of the worst films Ive ever seen, I have no idea what happens at the end as I could only manage 3/4 of it before I had to turn it off...money saved there!

The artwork may not please the purists but I think its still better than the Arrow one...but I still wont be buying it ;)
