Definitely the painting, although I appreciate the other as it is the original poster art. I'm all over this, if anyone is interested in the old Shout DF disc for cheap, PM me. That will be sold and replaced with this, I have no use for Killing Me Softly.

I cannot wait to retire the existing double feature Blu-ray.

(I have no plans to keep Killing Me Softly in my collection.)

Slipcover for sure, but both are better than the poster on the double feature cover.

Don't blame you Owl, I never even picked up that release and now I am even more glad I didn't.

I haven't ordered a Kino release with a slip before, they aren't exclusive to Kino's web store right? I will probably pre-order from bullmoose.com so just wondering. Thanks in advance!

I ordered my Mad Max 4K UHD from Amazon and received a slip. Also saw Mad Max and Hannibal 4K UHDs (when it originally released) at Best Buy in store with slips. So I would think Bullmoose would!

I'll probably order from bullmoose.com too, unless I make an order from Kino anyway.

I don't know why this film didn't catch my radar until now. Film Noir, Dennis Hopper, Jennifer Connelly. I'm definitely picking this up.

You won't be disappointed. It's great.

disco1979 · 01-26-2021, 06:18 AM

Such a great film. The cast is excellent. Virginia Madsen is so good in this.

The movie poster is one of my most beloved in my poster collection.

Herbalish · 02-02-2021, 01:12 AM

The pre-order is up on the Kino Lorber site.

No, I ordered Buried Alive from Target and got the slip. Should be standard on the initial release.

lethalkrs · 02-12-2021, 06:10 PM

Watching this on Tubi right now! Never seen it before, so if I like it, will probably buy this release!

This is why I like the reversible artwork in the amaray case! Can easily view either one!

I'm gonna upgrade my disc as well due to, well, JenCon. But I'll definitely hold on to the Shout disc, "Killing me softly" will probably never get another release, and it's not the suckfest y'all make it seem to be. For one thing it's got Heather Graham nudity, and she's no slouch in the cuteness department either. Just sayin.

dtower182 · 02-13-2021, 08:53 AM

Cannot wait for this. Was so tempted to get the Shout Factory version last year but glad I've waited!

houseca · 02-13-2021, 03:25 PM

My Mad Max 4K and The Train came with slipcovers shrinkwrapped over them. The bad news is over time (as they sit in warehouses) they become very worn. The good news is that they don't "magically fall off". Neither of mine came with any wear so that is nice.

I'm guessing Play Misty for Me and Buried Alive are also shrinkwrapped over... but I will have to see when my copies come in from Target.

What i'm trying to say, is that no matter where you get your copy, it almost certainly will come with a slip, unless you wait a couple years.

It is close to the suckfest we claim, as for the Heather Graham nudity angle, already addressed:

Hell, look in the right places and you watch the nude scenes by themselves, leaving absolutely no use for the rest of the movie.

I ain't gonna lie, I own some really shitty movies due to the nudity content, but have now given up buying movies I don't like for a few seconds of stuff I do.
