Well do keep feeding back on what you reckon - it's the feedback that makes the releases.

Don't say that you'll have the BD fans up in arms.Just to add fuel to the fire, I thought the Arrow DVD of City of the Living Dead compared very favourably to the Blue Underground Blu-ray.Tbh I think I would have been perfectly happy just with the DVD.

I love Lucio Fulcis films and if you want to make me completely happy (which I know is the only thing you think about

) I'd love to get an HD transfer of A CAT IN THE BRAIN on Blu-ray ... that would be awesome.

Anyways, I do also have a short question on the HOUSE BY THE CEMETERY release. I got the DVD today and I've noticed that the tiny version of the cover right below the Arrow logo is missing on this one. You might think I'm nitpicking (and I do know that I am) but since this is the only release without an image on the spine it really sticks out. Is that picture missing on all copys?

You're right and it is annoying - it's the same on all copies as far as I'm aware - the right file was sent but not used.

I got around it by using the classic artwork on the reverse, which does have the picture on the spine.

Yup, I've thought about this too, but since Ricks artworks are one main reason for me to collect the entire series I want to stick with his artwork.

Well, there is another way, brought to you directly by Tim Taylor.

Just take the official artwork, shrink it down, print it out so that the image is about 1cm broad, slide it unterneath the DVDs foil and place it right underneath the Arrow Video logo ... might take 2-3 attempts to get the size and placement right but I think it's still the best if you want to stick with the new artwork.

Just tried that and it actually works!

Image should be 1,6 cm height and 1,3 cm width. I cut off the white frame and the title and ended up havind to cut off a little bit at the left. Sliding the tiny image under the Arrow logo is a little tough since I didn't want to use glue or anything else that's "invasive". Of course, my printer's quality is nothing compared to the tiny images on the other covers, but if you just glance over your collection and don't know what I did, you probably wouldn't notice it.
