Look at the DVD.

You know what's really bizarre? I've seen a few copies of The Matador at Borders with that one-sheet art. I didn't know if they have an exclusive design or what.

The rerelease of Bringing out the Dead has to be up there, especially when compared to the original.

saw this at target today. never seen the movie, so i don't know if it deserves the horrible cover it has. so so horrible and cheap-looking. the font, the "boxes" effect (don't know what to call it), the picture, the mess of colors, bleh.

The new upcoming Bram Stoker's Dracula SE looks terrible.

I second the BRINGING OUT THE DEAD comment.

I unfortunately got the "new" release. Patricia Arquette has the wrong hair color on the cover (brunette in the film, blond on the cover) and it just looks like a cheap life-time movie. The red-cross with Mr. Cage's eyes in it was far more effective (not to mention indicative of Scorsese's red obsession) and stylish.

The DVD disc art still kind of has that at least.

This Prom Night cover with a much older Jamie Lee Curtis (Pic is from H20) is terrible..note the uneven eyes in background, not to mention the disc is foolscreen.

The foolscreen disc to be followed by this preorder alledgedly "Widescreen", we see Cartoon Jamie Lee Curtis
