Very nice release, gonna go well with my second sight collection!
Really digging second sight they have some beautiful releases.
Got Dawn of the Dead box set, Revenge, Walkabout and Nightingale so far.

Like goufcustom said it was good, personally I loved it I thought it was brilliant and unique, which is what I love.
However alot of people did not like it they expected another THE CONJURING or something, apparently they love jumpscares.

Not a fan of jump scares myself...something this movie luckily does not have.
It's a slow burn with a disturbing ending and a great atmosphere throughout the movie.
I recommend watching it before you decide to purchase, its definitely high up my "greatest horror movies of all time" list.

Looks awful and I mean not the artworks itself - the treatment.

 

[Masta Norris]

How is the packaging from them for international orders, any bubble wrap or some sort of protection?

Yeah, thanks, I don't like jump scares either, will check it out - got a 'file' somewhere on one of the HDDs...

Yes, an extreme amount of bubble wrap, could've been delivered by Ace Ventura, and arrived undamaged!

Does Second Sight charge on the pre-order or when it ships?

Thanks.

Fabulous, order placed with friend

Great news. Old slipcover goes for sale ... anyone ?

 

[ManRay]

I want it but just can't justify £39.99 for it when I got the steelbook for about £15 on Zavvi. Same thing with their edition of the guest which is £49.99... I got the steelbook brand new from music magpie for £3. I know there's lots of new features, but it's not like any restoration work is going into these recent films so I don't get why they're priced so high.

You could say the same for at least some of the FA releases. But SS has new matching art and book, not flimsy booklet and IMO bit useless stuff. This set looks good. And way cheaper than FA releases that all are not even 4K like Ant man and WASP ...

Yeah it is nice, I'm just sad because I'm poor and I want everything SS release

Hey, me too. I'm not even trying to get them all. Happily don't like all the movies they release ...

 

[Flloydo]

Like the art. Will most likely pick it up

On the fence, steelbook inclusion would of been a for sure upgrade.
