Night Of The Creeps (1986)
 

Now,here is what they should have used.....;)

Yeah none of those are too appealing.If that's the best they can come up with,i would probabaly go for the third one.....maybe! oh i don't know lol.The yellow of the 3rd choice remonds me of something :D That's one of the many great things about Shameless/Arrow,the choice of new artwork or original poster art.If only everyone offered the same

They could learn a thing or two from the releases on here eh Steve?;)

Yeah it finally comes out on DVD in October,The covers they're apparently considering are absolutely horrible and I would be embaressed to present those to anyone.I have seen some stinky new covers but wow these ones are just sad.:ack:

Spot on.The original poster art was great.Why try and fix something that ain't broken?
I suppose we should be glad it's getting a shiny disc release though eh?:o
After all.Someone out there is pumping their money into this.....:cool:

this is a great film and imo dekker's best film even though there is not much to choose from lol. the mix of horror and sci-fi really worked for me and who couldnt love tom atkins performance in it. a classic 80's film to say the least and its nice to see it getting the release if needed. the blu-ray is fantastic might i add so go grab it people.

Tom Atkins is an unsung genre hero.
Great actor.:nod:

Got the Blu Ray for Christmas and agree the cover art is rubbish! Tom Atkiins is awesome! Thrill me!

I got the DVD and the cover art is equally crap, nice transfer & great extras though.I have to agree with reaper about Tom Atkins, a great actor with Halloween III and The Fog being two of my faves. :cool:

Got the NOTC DVD in the post a few days ago and i'm waiting on the Blu-Ray edition arriving too.
No doubt a great release crammed with some enticing extras but as per usual when i'll get around to watching this title is anyones guess!

The main thing is i actually own a copy and that's good enough for me at the mo!:)

This film is a guilty pleasure :biggrin:

I don't yet own the official DVD release unfortunately - only a bootleg (featuring both endings) that I acquired before the DVD version was released.
It's on the to-do list.

THE BLURAY is great looking.The Bluray and the Regular DVD go for fairly cheap right now.

Its a MUST OWN blu!!

The Standard DVD got a one sided cover mate?

Both Blu and DVD have one sided cover on the new release.
If thats what your talking about :lol:

very cool film and a great dvd, yes the cover art sucks and i prefer the one on my bootleg but i had to have this to go with the 20th anniversary edition of Monster Squad. get a little Fred Dekker shrine on the go.

If only! I may be in the minority here but I wish they had used the dvd art on the Blu-ray too.

Another one that should have had the original art on the dvd/blu-ray. :mad:

Does anyone here use custom dvd/blu-ray artwork? I have this blu-ray cover of NOTC if anyone fancies printing it out and using it? I got it from a talented member over at the Hidefdigest forums who designed it (the cover,not the art).Just send me a PM.

I...er...*cough*...well...I...I have never actually...I have never seen Night Of The Creeps!

:blush:

Leave here.............NOW! :lol: Only joking.

:ack:
FAIL
ha ha :lol:

i was like that till a year ago. Loved it from the first viewing.

I'm not too sure my copy is still sealed right now.

However, i reckon both the U.K. VHS sleeves (The 'zombie hand through the door' illustration and the great Graham Humphreys artwork.) would've sufficed as superior DVD and BR cover designs imo.:)

Which Is why I'm using the Graham Humphreys artwork with my Blu-ray :nod: So much cooler than the official cover.

Good man and you know what they say "Great minds think alike.".

The U.S. NOTC DVD and BR covers are not too bad but they could've been so much better. I hate it when great films are saddled with less-than-stellar artwork and we've all seen examples of this sorry situation.:(

Not only is the artwork horrible but the case it comes in is horrible it’s a low grade DVD case, with a massive recycle logo cut out of it!, that got changed straight way.

By the way did anybody go and meet Atkins when he was at collectormania a few years back? I got him to sign my VHS :biggrin: ‘to Chris thrill me, Atkins’.

That was also the day i had a conversation with Romero about incest (the crazies)

:chainsaw:

night of the creeps is such a wicked movie and has some seriously funny quotes. Really wish they would release a region 2 dvd of the movie :(.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this film, such an awesome flick. The U.S release does have some bad cover art, and yes that ECO case is flimsey as hell, but i've got a bootleg copy too with the hand coming through the window. It's wierd that this got such a shit dvd release where as Decker's Monster Squad was give awesome treatment by lionsgate. Sony dropped a bollock on a potentially awesome release...

Shit release? :confused: The NOTC dvd/blu-ray is a fantastic release.It's got more stuff on it than Monster Squad.

you are right stevoj, i checked out my copy and yes there does seem to be more on there, all i could remember was the reunion. but they could have made a better cover for the dvd, i remember it being a voting system to decide on the covers..

Yeah the covers are awful but luckily I have a much better custom cover on my blu-ray,which can be seen on page 2 of this thread.

My Commando DVD came in one of these awful cases too, if you're not careful you can put a hole in the cover while trying to extract the disc from the flimsy case. :mad:

Do you have a larger size image of this ace cover?

I love this movie so much. If there's a more quotable horror film from the '80s, I haven't seen it!

My son and I met Mr. Tom Atkins at a horror con a few years ago, and the kid snapped a photo with him (after he politely agreed to do the whole "No, Bozo the Clown" exchange with us -- how freakin' cool is that?!) . . . unfortunately, I'm having trouble finding said photo at the moment. Hope to remedy that soon, so I can share it here!
