Is my B/W opening version worth £££lots now?
So, what's "the word on the street" for those mugs amongst us who still have copies with the B/W opening sequence, instead of the sepia one? Are we sitting on a goldmine, or are we just taking up space on the shelves, where something else could go?

Since those who got the corrected version through Arrow were told to just keep the original disc as well I can't imagine its very rare or worth anything I'm afraid Suzi.

Why would it be worth anything? No-one wants a version of The Beyond with the B&W opening instead of the sepia-tinted one.If it had the full colour opening that might be different.

Um...because it's no longer available, thus making it a collectors item??? Question - Why would anyone want the version of 'Casablanca' in colour, and with a happy ending? Answer - because it's no longer easily acceptable! Mr Pix - I take it you are not a fan of 'The Beyond', because surely a true fan would want as many different versions as they could get!

Suzi was right to ask the question though and collectors have sought out discs for plenty of silly reasons - I'm thinking of an early pressing of the Roan DVD of City of the Dead which featured a short minute and a half easter egg of Christopher Lee speaking ill of Forry Ackerman, evidently Lee was speaking without his knowledge that the camera was rolling... even sillier was MGM's DVD of Swamp Thing which was quickly withdrawn after someone noticed the PG-rated DVD contained a bare-breasted Adrienne Barbeau... As for The Beyond, who knows ? People buy mispressed vinyl all the time...

I think the release is still far too recent to be worth anything yet. But a couple of years down the line, who knows? People buy things for all kinds of reasons.

It'll probably be worth something in a few years, I've got a few vinyls that are mispressings that are worth a few bob or two. But there's one I'm always on the lookout for which is considered the Holy Grail and that is a brown vinyl of Iron Maiden's Twilight Zone 7", which I believe there are only 6 copies of, some kind of mix up when pressing the red vinyl, last one I heard of went for $5200 on ebay!

Hmmm I got ripped off with the crap B&W opening version as well, I doubt I could give it away And it appears to be cut as well since my Italian copy is longer.
