I'd always go for the original Italian poster artwork, as that is what it was originally released with, it's nice to have all the new fancy artwork but i think for the B side it should always be the original release artwork that's what i always use when i have the option

Looks like one of those early 90's 'erotic thrillers' that populated video shops in great proliferation. I'll go for the reverse artwork, which will hopefully be something a bit more classy. I understand that Shameless want to shift as many units as possible and lurid covers undoubtedly facilitate this. But, consider this, if I were a casual punter and picked it up thinking it would be some sleazy epic and discovered that it wasn't, I probably wouldn't buy anymore Shameless titles. So this could work against sales of future titles, couldn't it? Just making casual observations, I obviously don't work in the industry so I'm not sure about customer demographics and all that. I hope it does well for Shameless, but can't help feeling that the cover is a bit misleading. You can't have a cheap and tacky cover with the tagline 'Fulci's masterpiece', it just doesn't work. I know the cover is aimed at casual shoppers, but that being the case, how many would even know who Fulci is? Makes the tagline a bit redundant if it's aimed at high street shoppers.

But : the artwork may not represent what the film is about - one could argue about that. But it looks like a Shameless cover. And that's the general idea, innit? Greetings! |

While I don't think the Torture cover is that great, it does kinda tie in with why the killer kills.

I did say that lurid covers facilitate sales, so I'm not really knocking Shameless for making what they consider a good marketing decision. I'm just saying that I dislike it, but I'm sure that what's on the disc will be great, so it's no big deal really.
