Totally agree with you- the Eureka steelbooks are just beautiful- and classic films too...not the crap Zavvi churns out on a daily basis. :thumbs:

Interesting I noticed the top plastic clip for the booklet is broken/missing. Mine arrived the same way. I think the extra thick booklet causes this.
In hand this is a gorgeous steelbook.

that's so not true. "touch of evil" is one of the best film noirs ever made (and one of the last of that era). orson welles gives a stunning perfomance as the bad detective (cop?), brilliant black/white cinematography, and the opening scene is also one of the best ever. so many nice aspects around that film, and EUREKA releases are also always reliably well done.


how dare you to say this movie is crap. :rolleyes:


edit: and the steelbook is definitely not available anymore directly from EUREKA. i wrote them an email last week, because it told me "Your item has sold out
We're sorry, the following item(s) isn't available at this time" when i tried to order via their offers page.
they had a look for me in their warehouse if they might possibly find one last copy, but they couldnt. so this is sold out now, even if it's still listed there on the offers page.

I had one with a broken clip a few months ago and Eureka sent me a replacement copy and let me keep the damaged one so I sold it on...reckon I got one of the last ones from Eureka then! Will be a collectors item one day methinks!

I think I might have bought it lol
 
You got my good one then! Wish I had kept the intact one now lol

Oh, I thought you sold the one with the broken clip, I got it a lil bit cheaper because of that, you can see it in the video. It's doesn't really bother me.
 
Already put photos in the "pics of your last steelbook" thread but basically got this of the cex website for £5.00!!!!!! The normal blu ray is on sale for £10.00. Don't make sense. Anyway there was only 1 left but will post the link for people to keep an eye out. More photos in the other thread

Haven't been following this thread but mine also arrived with a broken clip when I got it shortly after release. :(

yes, it's a pity, they are just teasing.

it really hurt when i first hesitated buying when these "last few copies" were put up about a year ago (because i already had the amaray version), and then had to pay double price for an opened copy to complete my MoC collection.

i try it every once in a while to order it, still hoping that maybe they find a couple of copies in a corner of their warehouse...
