Can you post the Phenomena work? I can't seem to find it on his site.

Thanks Wow, that's doesn't look too bad. Wonder if it'll become the official artwork or not?

Bloody stunning though.
Far better than owt I've seen for this film anywhere.

This illustration gets my vote, too.

I haven't seen IOD, not even any footage from the film despite it's unsavoury reputation and the movie has been one of those talked-about titles that for some strange reason just never seemed to appeal to me.

However, all that will hopefully change when i take a chance on Arrow's forthcoming edition. Here's holding out for another stellar release in line with the company's previous formidable output.

Great news! I'll definitely pick up the BD version if it comes out.

[Amertume]

Amazing artwork too, I might add!

If this is risque I suppose the goat f*cking one is out of the question.
