It took me several minutes to figure out that’s “Frankenstein” wedged under the werewolf electricity breath and the hand. I don’t know what those purple letters above it and to the right of “Dracula” are though

Took me a moment to figure out what was bothering me, but the figures are staring straight ahead and not up at the giant thing looming over them.

Aw, this looks really cool to me. Like a “midnight movie” screening poster from the psychedelic era. Something different from the same old gloomy stuff.

Can we at least share a resentment that this a mere repackaging of the last two years' 4K releases?

I like the store hours thing - it's hilarious, but maybe not in the way they were going for

At least it gave us our first Toby Jones-starring steelbook cover. At least until Haneke's Happy End gets one.

Yet another underwhelming cover for Le Mepris. Unlike it's UK counterpart it is
UHD only, not dual format.

It's strange, it's re-using the old DVD cover from the Godard collection.

Yeah, there’s nothing egregious about that cover. It’s perfectly in line with what the film is and is a decent execution of it.

Suspiciously perfectly timed for the first anniversary of QEII sailing off into the sunset!
