I like both covers. I hope they don't change them for a couple of people with bad taste that weren't going to buy them anyways.

Like they did with Steel Magnolias?

Hmmm to me, the title font looks kind of cheap. It doesn't mesh very well with the zombie pic IMO... Like trying too hard to be artsy? I'm OK with the red-black theme though. Just my opinion.

right, that pissed me off. The first cover was WAY better

From a graphic design perspective, the cover makes a number of elementary mistakes. As someone has already said, the font for the title is out of place in a horror movie.

What horror font 'rulebook' are you referring to Clark? Is It's Alive in it?

I'm going to buy both no matter what the cover is, but I hope they listen to what their customer base is saying. Some people will avoid buying these because they don't like the covers.

What is their customer base saying?

I think the NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD cover is fantastic. I love it.

We go through this exercise in futility every time we see cover art. It's ridiculous. What part of the customer base should TT listen to? The 5% that love the cover art? The 5% that hate the cover art? The 90% that don't give a rats ass?

Maybe they don't even need cover art. Just sell the discs in a brown paper bag and make sure that SAE includes a magnet.

And I don't believe a single person will avoid buying a disc because they hate the cover art.

Oy! Are folks still getting hung up over my use of the word "iconic" here? I thought it was obvious I was using it in the cultural sense.

Mooch360 · 08-31-2012, 02:38 AM

What I want to see is the Blue Lagoon cover.

NOTLD will have the Savini commentary - just saw it on TT's website
Very great news indeed

ROclockCK · 08-31-2012, 06:10 AM

...NOTLD90 now has revised cover art (see right):

Works for me either way...

BluPat · 08-31-2012, 06:21 AM

I bought 'Fright Night' but, that's all. if TT ever decides to drop their prices to $20 or less, then I will buy them. But since 'Fright Night', I haven't bought any of their releases and prefer to give SHOUT! Factory & Olive Films my business. There is no reason in the world these can't be sold for more reasonable prices....especially with next to no extras.

Oh well.

That only leaves "The Dead Walk" 25-minute documentary and the theatrical trailer.
