I don't know if these ones are really that remarkably bad, but I certainly was disappointed to see how they turned out.

Mastroianni appears to have at least 4 inches of makeup caked on his face. And that flash of light with the title in it is causing me to dry-heave even as I type this.

What are these men doing? And do they really have to put THAT on the cover? Is this a gay sexual manual docu or something? Cause that's what it seems to be saying. Anyway, here it is in all its glory:

There is a woman on there as well - the blonde one to the left!

I've seen the documentary and really enjoyed it, though they are upping the sex angle, more naturism than bonking in this one! I did like the idea expressed in the film of a group of people rafting down a river through a valley each summer to a secluded cove and doing various hippy-esque things, usually in the nude! As always it is sex that caused the split - I think it ended with a lot of animosity as certain people paired off and got more interested in each other than the group (if you know what I mean - nudge, nudge, :wink: , :wink:!) . I think everyone decided to leave except one guy who still goes every year as far as I can remember! It is well worth a watch especially for the opening introductions to everyone where you see a young lady dancing round naked and then cut to her now as a forty year old schoolteacher etc!

This one is so bad, most dvd sites still have the old cover art on their site.

to be fair, that's how he appears in the film. neither he nor Anita Eckberg look too good in Intervista.

*making mental note not to shake hands with Mr Fingaz - never know how they got so sticky*

Shouldn't the tag be 'hot women, fast cars'? Or does it work either way? It just seems a little derogatory to call a woman 'fast'! [-X (or it is loose that I'm thinking about?) Hot still isn't great, but still seems a bit better! :-k (but then if you call a woman 'hot' and the film is called Hot Parts then would it mean that. . . - ah forget it, I think I've thought more about the implications than the cover people already!)

I suppose what I'm trying to say is that you wouldn't get Ladies in Lavender advertised like that! (hot cross buns, fast cross stitch!)

Intentional, I believe, as yes, it can go either way. I suspect the box is far more clever than any moment in the movie. I know people who watch shit like this...and it makes me sad. DVD production really is becoming an art form, which is good, because more and more we will be able to truly judge a film by its cover.

I don't think that huge explosion behind Segal fits in well with his environmentalist leanings - think of the pollution!

Oh man, what is hilarious about that cover - if you look closely, that gun on his back is Photo Shopped on there very crudely. Maybe they think he looked a little pudgy and "un-bad-ass" without it? I don't know...

Sticky Fingaz = the next Denzel as in: The Academy Award goes to.....

Sticky Fingaz!!!!! :D

Either he is a no-name pornstar or a no-name rapper. No matter what, he has the shittiest name I ever heard. I wonder if he is registered like that with the SAG.

I know some people who not only watches, but also buys crap like this. There is even a guy that has bought all those Master P DVDs sold in bargain bins.

I'm surprised no one posted a cover of those low budget hispanic exploitation movies.

I present some more films [which happily also happen to have truly hororific dvd covers] in the career of the peoples favorite

"sticky fingaz"

yes, apparently he pops up somewhere in this mess. Jennifer Aniston [mainstream media darling] is also probably trying to forget she ever made this heap of junk. "her luck just ran out" clearly refers to Ms. Aniston's film career.

his career is clearly on the up, joint top billing!, albeit in...

what a horrendous image this cover is, and remember "It's your duty to inspect the booty!".

Finally there is yet another truly terrible cover for

and yes our man sticky is in there somewhere.

thankyou and goodnight.
