Good art, but should have been gloss!

Matte finish means sell for me.

I was hoping for gloss but i think the matte suits this one............. Im only saying this cos i have to justify buying this

Haha! I only have it on DVD so that's my excuse!

It does annoy me that the skull on the back has the top cut off, yet Jane and Travolta's hair is continued.

Yea, I've never seen the skull logo from this film cut that way. It's as if they forgot to move the skull up to the top line while in Photoshop

 

[thewoe]

I like this film and yet dont own it, watched it on netflix a few months ago, good excuse to get the steely

 

[henry00x]

love the art and spine but no embossing/debossing or gloss

this will surely be a bargain price at zavvi sooner or later, will wait until then

Just received my copy today. Here's the back and inside art for those that are interested. Tbh I wasn't that keen on the back art as I didn't like the way they cut the top of the skull off but I only payed £11.99 for it so I won't complain too much. Think it could have been nicer if the letters were embossed and the skull was gloss too but nevermind, can't have everything!

 

[thewoe]

Recieved today, Love it, nice front art, simple, Great movie and a bargain for £11.99

another ****** steelbook from Zavvi I preordered. Shouldn't do it anymore... However, maybe for the 14,15 Euro I paid it is good enough.

You mean Sony right?

Another matte finished, non-embossed steelbook like Ghostbusters, The Evil Dead, Close Encounters of the Third Kind and Hellboy? In fact, like pretty much all of their catalog titles.

Man people really don't like matte steels lol I really like it. Artwork is nice, movie is great. Price is nice.

 

[CasuallyDressed]

£11.19 from Zavvi after a discount code.

Rear art work with the half a skull looks stupid

Yes, you may probably be right. It is a Sony steelbook, but zavvi is selling it as their exclusive and should at least show pictures of the real thing before shipping. However, like I said before I have to blame myself for still preordering steels from zavvi, Nobody is forcing me, except my addiction to steelbooks...

Zavvi can't do anything about that, they can only show what the distributors provide them with - and Sony normally only provide front artwork. It's all Sony's fault in this case, not Zavvi's.

So true.

On a related note, I was looking at some titles by Artificial Eye on Amazon earlier and realised not a single listing showed the spine or rear art.
