The Dunwich Horror (1970) (Arrow Video) - Page 3 - Blu-ray Forum

I’m tossing up between the US or UK version. UK release does not appear to have a slipcover in any of the promo pics. Can anyone confirm the UK version has the slip?

Didn't realize this has a slipcover. Why is it so difficult for Arrow to says "slipcover for first pressing"

Thank you for confirming, will be getting the UK edition as it’s far more economical than importing the US one to Australia.

I know right, only label I know where the slips and booklets are lucky dips if you get one or not…

maybe they're taking pity on us and minimizing the obnoxious posts a year later asking "does this still have a slip cover?"

Just learned about that new edition!!!
(I don't come very often of the forums anymore...)

This is my all time favorite Lovecraft movie adaptation!

Ordered!!!

Arrow put together a really nice package for this edition so you're in a treat when you receive it.

Looking at those head shots it seems like one format is either squeezed or stretched.

I just got this recently. I would like to see Die, Monster, Die! also though, I wonder if there is any chance Arrow will release it too.

drownsoda · 04-30-2023, 07:10 AM

Finally got a copy of this. What a glorious package—the artwork is stunning (I love the original poster artwork on the reverse), and the picture quality is a noticeable upgrade from the Scream Factory disc. I started watching the conversation extra between Stephen Bissette and Stephen Laws and was shocked to see that it is over two hours(!) long. While the Scream disc was good, Arrow really did this film right.

ElRobHubbard · 07-08-2023, 05:50 AM

The one drawback is the commentary - one of the most obnoxious commentaries I've experienced so far. They're knowledgeable, but they are horrible comedians and just really bring the release down. Fortunately, the other extras and picture quality make up for it.

Almost. If you get this, don't listen to the commentary - your experience will be MUCH better with the film.

klauswhereareyou · 08-07-2023, 03:24 PM

Got this from the Barnes and Noble Arrow Video sale. The Color and detail are much better on this release then the old Scream Factory double feature disc. Only gripe I have is that near the start the added detail makes some of the scratches and damage pop in the image a little more. Still a great upgrade.

Anyone knows if this is still coming with a slipcover from Amazon?

mine came with a slip, in a bubble mailer, in perfect condition.

Cortiz · 02-04-2024, 01:49 AM

yup, i just got it from Amazon today and it did come with a slip. Movie is been out for a while so it must have been a slow seller.
