I don't recall being confused or disappointed when I watched Death Ship and discovered there is no great big mouth on the tub but that remains one of my favourite sleeves and it keeps getting ripped off - look at Nazi Dawn that has just come out.

Back to the topic of The Beyond I think it's shaping up nicely.

If sales are going good then keep doing what you're doing. I very much enjoy the paintings on the Arrow releases so there's no complaint there. Plus it's great to see underrated classics hit bluray.

Anyone want to take that bet?

I reckon he'll use the crucifixion image, perhaps with some zombies in the background and tarantulas in the foreground. That may be a little too blasphemous for some people so you may be right.

Or maybe he'll keep in theme with previous UK releases and have either the dude from the morgue coming out of the chiller or the Liza and her creepy eyes getting her throat ripped out?

He could certainly use Liza for his t&a quota.

Siff you don't like T&A? I know I wont be complaining if that's the case.

If we are going to get a classier cover for The Beyond, I'd like to see Rick's re-imagining of the final shot of them in the beyond! He could really sink his teeth into that imagery.

Please show me the t and a in the film. I just want the cover to be relevant.

I honestly can't remember the film that well but there were some attractive women in it. Anyway it's just a cover so as long as it's catchy on the eye and is somewhat relevant then I'm happy. Main thing is that the film is uncut with a great print.
