SHAM031/201 - Cannibal Holocaust: The Artwork

[bizarre_eye@Cult Labs]

I like both panels, but do prefer Panel B.

It's the same cover-art as on my EC Ultrabit release, and I've always regarded it as one of the better CH covers.

To me, Panel B IS Cannibal Holocaust. It's the same cover as my Nan's old VHS version, so for me, it's a winner

Nan's?? Cool.

[Baseball Fury]

Yeah man, I mentioned it somewhere on here before, but my Nan was a massive horror buff. Had a bunch of pre-cert horrors (and quite a few from the DPP list) plus loads of stuff that's never seen the light of day on UK DVD. We used to watch them after she went to bed!

Unfortunately, when she passed on they all got destroyed . My Grandad had no interest in horror movies and we were too young to be considered giving them to, so I believe they all ended up down the dump for some lucky binman to find!

Awful artwork, as it ever was, but it looks oddly OK in the "Shameless frame".

I actually prefer it with the muted green. It makes the bright yellow border pop. Plus the red and black colour scheme doesn't fit the bright yellow as well as the green. Love the old Go video cover for panel two though.

Yeah, looking at it again, I feel less hateful towards the original green, though I don't think the character stands out enough from it. It's mainly the composition that doesn't look right.

[Slippery Jack]

Sorry, couldn't resist having another play...

Oh yes, definitely the one on the right with the mud-like background. Top Notch stuff.
