Indeed. I have no goddamn clue what these specialty labels are thinking of with their recent cover art choices. If you're spending $50 on a vintage movie, can't you get the original poster or at least something that evokes the style of posters of the movie's era?

Can artwork slap without ruling? Or does anything that slaps also rule? Where's Jon Wurster when we need him?

I mean, this release is going to have a cover sleeve for the disc case, alternative art on the reverse side, a two-sided slipcover, and a two-sided slipbox. I bet the poster art makes it in there somewhere!Monterey Jack wrote: Thu Jul 02, 2026 2:10 am can't you get the original poster or at least something that evokes the style of posters of the movie's era?

I'm sure it will be, but why make the cover most people will see first that horrific? What on Earth about that image says "Buy me!" for anyone who isn't already familiar with the film?swo17 wrote: Thu Jul 02, 2026 2:47 amI mean, this release is going to have a cover sleeve for the disc case, alternative art on the reverse side, a two-sided slipcover, and a two-sided slipbox.

Poor Lukas Haas couldn’t stop witnessing murders in the 80s

Looking at that slipcover, I can’t stop seeing Sissy Spacek in Carrie if she was covered in flour rather than pig’s blood.

It looks exactly like Katherine Helmond in what is the best known still from the film and let me guess why it's rendered in white.Feego wrote: Thu Jul 02, 2026 7:09 am Looking at that slipcover, I can’t stop seeing Sissy Spacek in Carrie if she was covered in flour rather than pig’s blood.

I don't know the movie, so all I see is a garishly looking actress motionless in a blank stare, on a non-descript black blackground, so the movie could very well be exactly the kind of 3.5 on IMDB movies VS are releasing on a weekly basis.
