Ha ha I am saying nothing

I like this artwork.

Not terrible I guess but it doesn't really grab me and rip me apart if you know what I mean

 

[Mr.Vorhees]

YES!!! What is happening? Steelbook news are on a roll this week. Another horror classic i wished to get a steelbook release. Artwork is nice, would be awesome if glossy but we rarely get any glossy steelbooks. I don't want to complain, awesome news for me :]

 

[hoppusdelonge]

This has grown on me a lot in the last few hours, I feel like it fits really well with how mysterious the Cenobites are in the first movie, definitely needs a decent finish to make it pop though.

Not a fan of the title placement on the spine, seems too far down thank's to 'Clive Barker's' being in a smaller font.

Fergie Time. Steel looks better than some of the recent back catalogue efforts

That spine is killing me

Take away the directors name and center the title

I think if the chains part of the artwork was in view on the front and it had 'Hellraiser' in deep red debossed into the front too it would look ok, but as is it just looks like Prometheus to me.

I fear this will be another one of those classic series where only the first one will get a Steelbook release leaving us hanging without the others. I don't know about you guys but I like my collection to match, so if I have a film in a trilogy in one style I like them all the match in a uniform aesthetic.

The recent mummy trilogy steels handled it really well, they look fantastic together.

It still amazes me they've never released the Nightmare on elm street films in steel form with each featuring the classic movie one sheet artwork, I mean, surely collectors would leap at those?!

So they can tell us all that, but can't tell us the finish on the steelbook? LOL!

 

[Flloydo]

No mention of a book either

 

[Hereticz]

I´m definitely in as I don´t have this masterpiece on steelbook yet. But I would prefer a classic poster on front with some good finish. This one is not bad either, although It would be much better in full gloss but I have some doubts about that

 

[paulboland]

Arrow Video have just informed me the Steelbook will also be getting a USA release details to be provided when known

UK Zavvi exclusive

USA release details be announced soon

Region coding

UK Region B
USA Region A

 

[cooey]

So they can tell us all that, but can't tell us the finish on the steelbook? LOL!

Yeah but it's easy got copy and paste Arrow's existing specs

 

[Flloydo]

Pauls employed by them so he should know the finish


A wild guess would be matte though. Just a wild guess
