Might be because it's one of the more well known "mainstream" horror titles, that the Facebook crowd have actually heard about and seen before.

A lot of them just don't seem to know much about Argento, Fulci, etc., which leads to slower sales of those titles.

presumably it'll be sold in HMV at some point as well.

One guy was whining he couldn't place an order because he was at work and they'd all be gone by the time he got home.

WTF?

Get off Facebook you plank and order one.

i'm just waiting for one fanny to be like "i seen the announcement, went for a smoke to calm myself down, came back and it was gone. GONE IT WAS JUST 5 F**KING MINUTES!!!!!!"

Why the panic. Unless the standard amray release of the thing is missing bonus discs or whatever then it's hardly like anyone's going to miss out. I'm more pissed I can't get that Romero set

the truth is the only one i care about is blood feast, but i'm in no rush

I've been a bit of a naughty troll. Went on to one of the Arrow threads and posted that I'd managed to get 20 copies of each.

Put a winking face next to it to show I'm kidding. In truth I missed out but given I'm missing nothing but fancy packaging it's not the end of the world.

"15/07/2017 11:58 AM.
Unfortunately the site has been overwhelmed with demand following Friday's new release announcements.
We are working to increase capacity so that it can come back online for you all.
If you were able to place an order and got as far as make a payment on PayPal then these will be reflected on your account in due course. We have a backlog of payments to clear that we are working on.
Please be assured we working flat out on this after a night on it. There's no need to message or email for updates - they will be posted here for you when we have them.
Thanks very much for you support!"

i think Arrow have massively underestimated the demand from the mainstream crowd here. the launch post alone got over 2,500 likes. assuming all those are also buyers that's 50% gone in the blink of an eye.

I've had an email confirmation from Arrow, so my £12 order has gone through. It's a shame that the booklet is exclusive to the digipack because I don't really like that new artwork.

Me neither. It reminded me of the Inspectors last avatar.
