I've ordered from both before and never had an issue.

Also, not sure why many like that original artwork...because I don't like it that much and I prefer the alternate. Keep in mind I have the Criterion Blu-ray version of this movie.

As I understand it Zavvi now own Arrow. Last couple of Zavvi Arrow pre-orders have been sent directly from Arrow with a tracking number. Hit and miss with packaging but not yet had one with any damage( now I've cursed it).

Artwork is a pretty subjective thing. Many factors go into it but also a lot of people grew up with that being the artwork on the vhs/dvd.

I'm tempted by that original art box but I think I'll hold out and hope for a Criterion release. Importing these Arrows is killing my wallet

Yes, that is my understanding too. I swore off Zavvi years ago after they sent those Studio Canal John Carpenter boxsets in thin bubble mailers but they've forced my hand on this release. We'll see how it goes.

I’ve got the Arrow limited edition Blu, so whilst it would be good to get the Original Artwork UHD for something different looking, it’s a bit cheaper to preorder the regular artwork edition from HMV (£24.99 instead of £30+).

Not so much zaavi but the company that also owns zaavi, The Hut Group

I actually cancelled my pre-order from Arrow and pre-ordered from Diabolik since I live in the States. It's a bit cheaper like that and I've never had a problem with Diabolik shipping.

YESSSSSSS!!!!!!!! Pretty sweet day today, Videodrome 4K, and Chat Pile, Murder By Death, & Beach Rats all released their new albums!

Coming back to this thread since my last comment is making me grow an abdominal vagina. It has a gun it…but it shoots confetti cause once I get this release in hand, it is party time.

The original artwork variant is exclusive to Arrow and Zavvi.

I preordered with DiabolikDVD.

Their website doesn't say so like it does on Tenebre's page. Odd!

Geoff D · 07-29-2022, 05:34 PM

OG art edition ordered.

I went for Shout Candyman over Arrow and it was a huge hassle.
