I dig the artwork but will definitely be going for the boxset instead.

I'm pleased that they are doing steelbooks at the same time as the LE, saves me buying the LE and then finding out there's a steel on the way!

surely that should say Ringu?

glad this is getting the Arrow review treatment. not sure i'm going to replace my dvd trilogy boxset with the fab 'reaching out' lenticular, though - it's this Tartan Asia Extreme one (available on hmv), but with a clear, image-only loose lenticular for the cover - nice.


wonder if they will do the other three?

Think it's always been called Ring in the UK. Same as Audition is not referred to as Odishon

Made my xmas with this announcement has Arrow, in for the steel and the LE due to all the extras and having the 1st sequel and Spiral (Ring 0 can burn in VHS hell )

FINALLY, jeez this has taken so long to get a release.

I hope this pave some the way for Ju-On the Grudge 1+2 also.

I've waited so long to get these on Blu Ray. Kinda wish this was a trilogy steelbook if they're not doing steels for all the films though.

Cool art

Really digging the artwork for this but then there is Arrow’s LE aswell hmm I’m going to have to think about this as I do love me an Arrow LE

 

[IllegalSwede]

I love the limited edition artwork but will probably get this instead as apparently the sequel and prequel aren't great.

IMO you can't really compare this steel and the LE, latter has so much stuff ...

HMV price has increased from £24.99 to £27.99

If HMV drop their price Amazon will likely match or better it
