According to Amazon, it's a two-disc release. Unsure beyond that.

DK1979 · 04-06-2019, 09:21 AM

Amazon says "Studio: ACORN MEDIA"... That's what i went by and said to bad it's not the arrow disc.

Never seen arrow do a steelbook this long after the original rel anyway.

I’m wondering if Acorn is correct studio. Wasn’t this a Starz/Anchor Bay in the US?
Either way, I’m happy to have this in a steelbook!

Smigro · 04-08-2019, 01:11 PM

Artwork would have to be killer to get me to replace my nice Arrow slipcover.

That does not look like a steelbook.

Ok, good to know. I think all the Acorn Media BDs I own are UK tv shows.
The mock up does show a typical steelbook spine. I just hope they aren’t turning the clock back about 10 years and painting the blu banner on it.

BluPat · 04-13-2019, 06:01 AM

I love the Children of the Corn franchise. I just wish we could get a good sequel that takes place IN a cornfield.

It is. Look at the top and bottom of the spine.

Already confirmed earlier.

Steelbook or not it's still a crappy movie.

Wrong

FelixFlankin · 04-27-2019, 06:08 AM

I have it already, but I wonder if the Arrow version might go OOP. They lost the rights to Creepshow 2 a bit ago. Maybe it's related since they're both Lakeshore?

hockeyshark91 · 04-27-2019, 06:47 AM

If that's the final artwork, I'm in. It's has a nice throwback look. Very VHS like.

I don't think so at all. "Crappy" probably best describes the nine sequels that followed.

So, has anyone purchased the steelbook and care to comment on it?

Kidfury · 07-10-2020, 04:34 AM

Anyone purchase the steelbook? Is this transfer good? Is it the Stars/Anchor Bay disc? Just curious...
