I've only got a simple amaray for this cute little gem so I'm VERY happy that a company with the strong capabilities of Second Sight is doing this.
It's not a film for everyone ( none are) but for those like me who enjoyed its quirkiness, I think it's great to get a lovely edition.
:sing:

Yes, yes and more yes! Day 1 for me! I really hope Second Sight do this justice.
 
I have a German media book (Der Babadook)..it would have been nice if the booklet were a full reproduction of that from the film.. just after the movies release there was a full scale reproduction available as I recall but just the book, no discs...

I have one of the original numbered copies of this book you are talking about. It’s a beauty! Was such a shame they didn’t incorporate a page for the film disc even if it wasn’t provided at the time.

I’m really looking forward to seeing how this turns out. I’m kinda hoping for something different from the red cover with black silhouette, however this is so iconic. Maybe even if the colours were inverted that would be cool.
 
I knew I had seen this movie before, but it certainly didn't impress me because I can't hardly remember anything detail from this movie... :sweat:

I love how it isn’t red like all the others. This is an absolute first day for me
 
Very nice. But I'm buying nothing from them until Dog Soldiers. Do you hear me ? Dog Soldiers !

:naughty::D
I am going to buy this, Dog Soldiers, Drive and any other 4K releases they have planned. Their Limited Edition for Dawn of the Dead 4K is one of my favourite things I own of theirs. I look forward to more stuff. I think I have a disorder. Compulsive buying.
