Price shot up to £19.99 now (€27)

Will probably be back down once the Mystery Codes run out!!!

strange it came down from £18-£15 and now is £20 ill only buy it if it drops to £10
was a good movie but not worth anymore,

Zavvi's prices are all over the place, I was waiting for manhunter to drop a couple of weeks ago and it changed price 4 times in 1 week...

Yeah Zavvi's famous measure of raising prices before a sale or sales coupon is announced. Tesco got heavy fines for doing this a couple of years back.

I guess Zavvi won't be honoring the £2.99 I'm owed from their price promise then.....

well i hope zavvi gets reported, this is just stupid,
i can on think they sold many over christmas and now have only a few left,
so have decided to raise the pirce to get as much as they they can,,

The funny thing is that if the price had dropped by a fiver instead, there would probably be a similar number of complaints.

Well one would be the usual grumblings by those that preordered, you'd think they learn by now lol. Grumbling because they've bumped the price up during a sale on the other is perfectly justified as it's illegal to do so in the UK, just ask Tesco and Curry's who both got roasted for that one lol.

[UpsetSmiley]

Zavvi have done this before though, bump up the price and offer 10% discount codes. It's just a ruse to mislead people into thinking they grabbed a bargain.

I'm sure Amazon is guilty of this too, especially in the 3 for £17 deals. Sorry mods I'm going OT again.

i just watched it, enjoyed the first half of the movie, it could be great but in the end it did not delivered.....in case i decided to get it it has to be on the 6.99 or so n if it gets "sold out" i wont be missing it...lol

 

[tono06]

I will have to disagree in my opinion. This movie was superb and kept me interested till the end of the credits. I have already seen it twice and I cannot wait to see it again. It really depends on the person and what kinda films you like. It definitely has a Drive vibe from it and the music was amazing, acting was great too. I really loved this movie and cannot wait for the steelbook to be in my hands.

An absolute great choice for a blind buy as B-Movies are freakin awesome in my opinion. All up to you make the choice for yourself!!!

acting great? cough cough!

 

[tono06]

Hmm well it looks like a few Instagramers have received theirs (not my pictures)...

All the pics I've seen in this thread are all "unboxed".

Anybody got shots of the steelbook with the jcard? Front/back. And maybe the Disc as well?
OH. and is this region B confirmed? Thanks guys!

Will open and take a pic of the disc later. Seems like it's region B locked though.

 

[kaw]

Thanks @spass !!! That was exactly what I was looking for. You're the best!
Glad I didn't order it now as this is one film I really want to open and watch!

 

[Ricker]

OMG!!! I love this movie, and this is one of the best soundtracks ever. Xymox, Front 242, Sisters of Mercy, Love and Rockets and more. I wanted to buy the soundtrack, but I can only find the MP3 for purchase

That does sound like an interesting soundtrack. Oh my, Front 242-there is a blast from the past. Didn't track them since late 90's...had no idea they were still around, lol.

 

[Mark]

Pre ordered this and during that waiting period the price dropped - so i emailed them to ensure I would be charged the lower price, which they confirmed would be the case. Will be interesting to see what my credit card bill says when it comes in next week.

 

[leelee17]

the soundtrack was a real blast from the past hearing front 242 for the first time in years!!
great movie!!

 

[Bagman99]

acting great? cough cough!

To ones opinion the acting was great. It was supposed to be silly lol.

the soundtrack was a real blast from the past nearing front 242 for the first time in years!!
great movie!!

Yeah the soundtrack was amazing the OST I could listen to all day and I am quite young so i had no idea this music existed hahahaha. Yeah unfortunately there's only a digital copy for the soundtrack, as I wish there was a physical disc as it would look good on the shelf lol. Whoever researched the music was an absolute genius.

Easily the greatest movies of 2014 in my opinion even though many may disagree, and I hope more steels come up for this in the future.

Started off good, with an interesting premise but for me fizzled out in the final act and turned into a generic 'by the numbers' thriller. I paid a tenner for the regular amaray version and it's worth that but no more, certainly not an £18 steelbook purchase. Great soundtrack though....

 

[gimpli]

Does this have inside art work?
