Dream would be the original poster art with some debossing on the scratches.
Love this film so very much looking forward to seeing how it turns out!

Edit:

Order done.

OG poster art as hoped (just with a deep red). Hopefully some debossing on the scratches like the Basic Instinct release.

Preordered along with the CE

 

[Noodles]

StudioCanal nailing it with this release! Never seen the film before and I avoid blind-buying nowadays, but the artwork on both the steel and the CE are seriously tempting me to just go for it.

 

[Jamon-Jamon]

Love the movie (also for the great scary moments that I enjoyed loooong time ago with first watching). Recommended. Ordered the steel and the CE . Marathon than I am planning (when I get the time): An American Werewolf in London, Dog Soldiers, and The Howling.

Any codes floating around? I've been out of the steelbook game for a while but this is too delicious to pass up!!

I'm guessing since this is a StudioCanal release that the region coding is referring to the 4K disc being region free and that the Blu-ray will actually be region "B" locked.

I see the SteelBook is only 2 discs but the Collector's Edition (no SteelBook) has 3 discs (2 Blu-ray discs)

Also the disc images from the Collector's Edition shows the "ABC" Region Free logo on the 4K disc and the region "B" logo on the 2 Blu-ray discs.

Really nice art

 

[crib79]

Probably just me but I prefer the art on the original steel so happy to skip this one.

Discount codes don't work on pre orders
They only work on in stock items

On release date or after if still in stock you can then use a discount code

Reddit is used a lot 12% discount but you have to wait until after release date to use
