I love this movie and will buy this to go with my other editions as well as any other special edition release they want to put out!!

Just not doing it for the American carbon copy!

I've never ordered from Zavvi before, how is their shipping? Has anybody received damaged items from them before? I'm in the US.
Also, I'm wondering if this release will have the proper theatrical subs and not the dumbed down subs that were included on the first pressings of the US dvd/Blu-ray.

I have ordered a lot of steels from Zavvi. The packaging isn't great, so on occasion one will arrive damaged, I think of the several dozen I have gotten, maybe 1 was bent and I got a replacement sent for it. They had asked me to mail the other one back, but when I informed them I was in the US, they scrapped that idea, postage would have been way too much!

Sweet!! I've been on the fence about getting the kimchidvd release of this movie, I think I'll go for the steel instead. Much less painful for my wallet and the that front art is dope.

[CyberGhostface]

lol this will be my third copy of LTROI.

I do think the cover would be a little bit better if it was just the body hanging among the trees, the branches turning into Eli looks a little out of place.

[Gorgon]

Dang! almost missed this! Ordered!
I've always had good luck (so far) with my Zavvi steelbook orders.
Still receiving them in either the white cardboard sleeves or double-wrapped cardboard.

[Bullitt]

I’ve never seen this.
I do like the trailers and the reviews are very good....ohh and nice steel....pre-ordered.

Saw it when it first came out on DVD - never seen the remake.

Love the inside art:

I actually found the remake quite enjoyable.
I of course prefer OC fliks but some remakes can in fact be supportive to the original, exposing them to a wider audience (i.e. The Grudge, The Ring) whilst others should have never been made regardless since they totally distort the intent (i.e. Oldboy).

I'd recommend giving "Let Me In" a view, I think you will find it strays just enough from the original to claim its own voice, without distorting the uniqueness of the original.

[DB1975]

That freaking scene was awesome.

[MifuneFan]

The back is taken directly from this shot. She does look a little "chubbier" in it than she actually is.

[Zombilina]

That is actually some pretty phenomenal art. I passed on the Kimchi releases but may grab this if the price is right. That spine art will also make it stand out in any collection. Slightly bigger fan of the remake but they're both excellent in their own way. This one is definitely creepier in my opinion (cat scene!!).

[Gorgon]

I agree, excellent art on both the front and back ( and the inside reveal...doesn't).
Not quite up to par with the DaVinci calibre of the "From Hell" Steel but we can't have lightning strike twice I suppose....

[CyberGhostface]

To me the remake was a complete waste of time. What was particularly insulting was how much the director talked up about how important the original book was to him and then he ends up just copying the Swedish film almost verbatim except with the usual dumbing down and making it 'louder'.

I.e. for the pool scene (spoilers)

[Show spoiler]Compare the composition of the original scene to the remake. In the Swedish film it's very quiet with the carnage going on in the background and in the remake we have loud noises and severed heads flying at the camera.

[Gorgon]

Just thought I would mention, it appears that Kimchi have a few steels remaining of the Lenticular Type A and B sets.
