The curtains are about to go up again… CREEPSHOW 2 is heading to the UK!

We are hard at work on our upcoming UK release of CREEPSHOW 2 and want your help to decide an exclusive colourway for the Arrow Store exclusive release (N.B. there will also be an alternate colour non-exclusive UK release). Vote for you favourite below!

More updates on the release will be coming soon so make sure to keep checking back!

 
Was there a creepshow 1 ltd edition of this already?
UK distribution rights to Creepshow 1 is with Second Sight was just a Amaray release

USA Scream Factory did a limited edition in a slip box for Creepshow 1


 
There will be 2 editions

Arrow Store exclusive and a general release
General release will use the other artwork

Twitter Poll still open

Not a Limited Edition CREEPSHOW (Second Sight) but as it's now OOP the price is a ltd. ed. price.
For the serious fan there's this on the bay . . . signed by Tom Atkins and Adrienne Barbeau (looks like a replacement case as the original was blue):-

For CREEPSHOW 2 the 88 Films release with slipcover should not be completely forgotten:-

So are these both going to be hard box style releases?

One will be a Arrow Store exclusive and the other will be trade wide

Arrow might include something extra for the store exclusive but we don't have the details yet

What type of packaging that will be used is not known yet or what the disc contents will be and any other items that will be included

So this is just a reprint of the U.S. 2016 release......?


Yes but arrow store exclusive is different colour slip
Video is of the red slip edition

Arrow did not have the UK distribution rights back in 2016
88 films had the UK rights in 2016 and done a release themselves on Blu-ray

Arrow got the UK dristribution rights recently that's why they can now release their edition in the UK

will it be region free?
It wont be known for sure until someone tests the disc
It might be Region B

USA release was Region A Locked

But with Arrow now having distribution rights in UK also it's possible could now be Region Free for UK release
The only way to know for sure is when released and disc is tested
