CHAMPIONS with John Hurt was in every vid shop and corner shop from Landsend to John O' Groats! Someone obviously liked it! |
6 Attachment(s) Next....A few forgotten films here! |
Codename:The Soldier-an action classic and an artwork classic! Confessions of a Police Captain-there's another ripe for discovery! Beware of cheapo label dvds of this-they make Vipco look like Criterion! |
12 Attachment(s) A few familiar faces here eh? Could never understand that Final Exam cover though...not a lot of thought went into that eh? |
A great thread for a great label, Reaps - the blue and white spines looked great lined-up together when I used to collect tapes in the late '80s/early '90s. I had a fair few of them. BABY LOVE was a pretty rare one, as was CONFESSIONS OF A POLICE CAPTAIN. Escape from New York was one of the first films that I remember renting (in about 1983/1984). |
I didn't realise Fourth Man was on Embassy! I had SPETTERS though and it was cut to f---... |

Two classic covers there in The Howling and Humongous.:cool: |
12 Attachment(s) Modern day designers for dvd/blu ray labels should take note of some of the classic artwork from the past. Rider on the Rain and Road Games are another two outstanding covers. |
