Evil Dead (2013) (Blu-ray SteelBook) (Zavvi Exclusive) [UK]

I think its a great looking Steel, and loved the film
Ive noticed uve coloured in the StudioCanal Logo on the front.
Nice touch. Looks good.
Got a replacement for the incorrect delivery of Evil Dead 2 and sure enough the back has taken a beating. 2 big paint chips and 2 corresponding scratches. Studio Canal and Zavvi have utterly screwed the pooch on this one.
Luck must be on your side. The damage to the back of the steelbooks are in the same place. There can be no way this was not spotted at quality control stage and/or the j card being added.
It would not surprise me if there was a blind eye to it. This must be costing zavvi and studio canal a pretty penny.
Bad business practice.
Exactly.
I am not a fan of the back as it way too dark. I am pretty sure that the paint chips could have been avoided if they used a better quality finish. Cheap paint and cost cutting are now costing Zavvi and Studio Canal a lot of money unless they absorb the cost of returns and put them back on sale at rock bottom prices.
This, Evil Dead 2 and Jungle Book are going give Zavvi a massive headache.

It's disgraceful really. I can't afford third copy but by now all of em must be chipped. Tempted to order target version but that's 30 quid!

I doubt the scratches are because of the finish. Gloss or matte, these have been gouged down to the metal in places. If they were gloss they would look even worse i think
Glad I cancelled my order for this. It would have been a blind buy based on my love for the original film. Have now rented this remake and found it ordinary, even a bit boring thanks to the bland cast. I'd be disappointed if I'd paid £17.49 for this and gotten one of the very many damaged copies to boot.
Think few lucky souls got a mint copy. All 3 copies of mine got loads of paint chips on the back. Returned yesterday. Goodbye to both Evil Dead 2013 and Evil Dead 2. No more Studio canal pre-ordering for me.
