Never seen it, but wanna buy a poster of the dvd cover. It just looks so cool.

Paul Thomas Anderson's Magnolia
Six Feet Under Season 1
Sixth Sense (Vista 2-disc)
A Woman is A Woman

Rosemary's Baby
What's scarier? The Devil's spawn or skinny as a skeleton Mia Farrow? I'm going to go with the later.

Damn it! Why can't all releases be as nice as the French ones. I have the 3 disc "Brotherhood of the Wolf" from our mapple-leaf neighbors and the case is just a regular black amaray case, identical to the two-disc case holding "The Others." I love how the French version is a fold out with many of the principals highlighted individually. I believe those photos/shots were also used as movie posters for the film.
Canadian Version 3-disc

much better cover art than the US/Canadian 1 disc version...

Original posters can suck at times. 99% of the time they can be improved.

The 20th Ann. cover for Tron is the only example I can think of right now where the new art was an improvement over the original.
