Matte! Confirmed by ..... Me.

How about the art. Can we expect something new?

 

[Wreck]

Think already approved standard

 

[cooey]

Think already approved standard

But there's different ones.... the original amaray art or the ultimate edition art

 

[MovieFan1982]

next to the selectable screen formates I would be interested, which is chosen design for the steelbook.

 

[goufcustom]

Would this one be sharing the same artwork as Evil Dead Future Shop?

I guess...? Really love the artwork but the fact that it won't be gloss... just a little bit of let down...

 

[Sigill]

I prefer the blue artwork to the normal release but I presume this will be region locked like the original release.

 

[denizen]

I dig the artwork. Quite happy with that.

Now of course, which is the better one to get? US or Canada?

 

[justboy]

It doesn't bother me that this will have a matt finish.
The play.com version as well as the sequel & remake from Zavvi all do, so at least they will match in that regard.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for inside art though!

 

[severo]

that artwork is wonderful for the steelbook, can't wait to get it!

 

[cooey]

They'll both be the same mate so whichever is cheapest

 

[Blu-devil]

Still prefer my Book Of The Dead Edition.

 

[davidson]

Very nice artwork, even if it comes dented and scratched it would still look alright I think. Just kidding.

 

[Blurian]

I already own the UK steelbook, but seeing what these two would look like side-by-side is pretty nasty (in a good way)

Thanks DB!!!!! Just ordered from Amazon.

I read in the Canada thread that the Bonus DVD was a mistake and that this will only come with a single disc. I'll probably cancel and stick with my OOP amaray with the bonus disc.

 

[Hooch]

I think I prefer this one in comparison with the UK one I own.

The back looks pretty good, nice choice for art work.
Pity there is still no confirmation of inner art though, I'm thinking there might not be any.
