Evil Dead 2 - Book of the Dead Edition
According to Dread Central:
I'm in
This time around we’re getting it wrapped up in it’s very own Book of the Dead packaging, and just like the Book of the Dead release of Evil Dead a few years back, this one is designed by effects guru Tom Sullivan. As an added bonus, this DVD case will feature a bulging eye that, when pressed, elicits a nice, bloodcurdling scream, which I’m sure will make for some very surprising moments when it’s put away on it’s shelf.
The actual movie itself will be, for the first time ever, a hi-def Divimax transfer, and reportedly a host of other goodies will come on it as well.

Would love to see a new transfer (it's about time, actually) but I also hope there is a no frills edition... Just never been big on packaging like this I guess.

i have the first one and i gotta say it's not really that good... the fabric is really cheap feeling.. from a distance it looks kind of cool but when you get up close and hold it.. kind of looks a bit cheap.
i would liked to see better quality.

So, are they going to do the same thing for Army of Darkness so you can recreate the scene where Ash has to choose between three copies of the Necronomicon?
Not to spread idle rumors, but I wonder what the likelyhood that Sam used some of his bajillions of Spider-Man money to get the necessary rights to release Within the Woods?

So now ED2 gets a "stink of the dead" book edition?
I'm curious about these new extras, but i too hope for a regular edition that doesnt make small animals pass out from the smell.

I am totally buying this, but I'll probably just throw the packaging out, the lumpy cover will make it a pain to deal with and it won't sit right on the shelf. I think I am for good or bad one of the few people on here that could care less about all the collectible peripheral crap that comes with the actual dvd discs these days. Just give me the best transfer possible.
