Slaughter High – The Artwork Panels

Nosferatu@Cult Labs · #1 3rd May 2011, 10:41 AM

You all know what the main artwork, by Graham Humphreys, looks like, so here is a thread to talk about this piece of artwork and, when it's announced, the reverse sleeve.

What artwork would you like to see and, even if it isn't chosen by Arrow, what VHS, poster and other pieces of artwork do you have?

The only artwork i have seen are these -

The first 2 are the US video artworks, the 2nd two for the UK releases.

Nice covers -- it's easy to see where Graham Humphreys got his inspiration.

Grahams painting is by far the best.

Yes, it is being released in July. It hasn't yet been before the BBFC but, judging by previous cuts and the way the BBFC now views slasher films, I would be surprised if it was cut. Fingers crossed though!

I approve of both the U.S. and U.K. SH designs and ideally would like to see both covers adorning Arrow's release. However, if only one of these illustrations is to be used then i'll go with the British artwork as i think this particular concept is more relevant to the film.

Of the four artwork designs above, my vote goes for number 2 or 3.

Here's another one I found (also available as italian VHS) :

Cool cover and an interesting title -- if you saw that on a list of videos or DVDs without knowing anything about it, you might buy it for your kids!
