I'm not too keen on it I'm afraid. I like the idea of a lenticular cover (although not sure how this affects the prospect of reverse artwork - is it a slipcase or part of the dvd cover itself?) but it just doesn't do it for me sadly. Although I haven't seen the film when I look at that cover I think 'torture porn', not 'Italian cop movie'.

Isn't that the idea though? To sell the DVD to people who would otherwise have passed this one up. The covers are designed to grab attention and sell copies.

Putting tits and blood on the cover will sell more copies in HMV even if it's not representative of the film's content.

Plus her breasts are pretty fantastic... that certainly doesn't hurt.

It's certainly easy on the eye.

Good question! And the answer is that I haven't the foggiest!

I will find out though!

Will HMV sell a dvd with a cover like that?
Or will there be a strategically placed sticker?
