kinda think that matte suits the retro-vibe of the artwork

Streaky matte and no inside artwork. I’m probably going to return it. From those pictures it looks terrible.

On the bright side, though, Best Buy shipped my Scream 2 with this one, so hopefully I’ll get a box and the Scream 2 steelbook with no damage.

Ah, sometimes you sit back and think, I’m so pleased I didn’t fall for the hype.

I got this and in hard I kind of like the finish on the Steelbook, I have the French glossy one but I do like this one too, that close up on front it’s cool and really goes with the film vibe, I like it!

Received this today and like others have commented the SB is meh but the 4K transfer is great and more than makes up for it. I just moved the discs over to the Eureka steelbook.
