SHAM009 - Night Train Murders

[Almar@Cult Labs]

Should have some cover art for you next week. I have seen what I think is a rather spiffy draft but there's a couple of changes to be made before I subject it to your scrutiny!

Superb ran by fans for the fans ............

Looking forward to seeing the cover! In the meantime here's the movie classified at the BBFC :

It's also good to see that GRINDHOUSE has just been cleared as a full 190 minute movie for theatrical release!!

I've sent an amendment in to the IMDB which will update the film's status there and include a mention of the Shameless release too.

Thats what I love to see, pure Shameless dedication I suffer from the same condition myself!

Give the customer what they want! I'm chasing the designer to get the amended artwork to me - I'll have something for you very soon. I think it's an improvement... Your dedication is well noted!

So here we finally are.... the front sleeve for Night Train Murders!

A fine sleazathon of tight thrills and Texas Chainsaw style 'Did I actually see what I thought I did?' spills we've hopefully done it some justice. Thing is will anyone notice the sleeve on the shelves?

Come on then - let's hear the opinions!

[vincenzo]

Well at the risk of being attacked with a scalpel in a darkened train compartment I must admit to not being a huge fan of it.

It does stand out beyond doubt and it's definitely better than the BU Laura D'Angelo/red background cover but where are the girls (or even Macha Meril) on the cover - and why is there a naked blue maiden doing an exotic dance with a train pulling out of her err..... underground passage? I don't like the 'Whore Aboard' either and I feel it detracts a bit from the menace in the title. It reminds me a bit of a 70's-style pulp fiction paperback.

I'm probably in the minority here with the above opinion and I'll still be buying it regardless. Will the cover be a reversible one and have you found a trailer for it?
