I'm sure Sony has already offered that cover artist a senior position in their design department

That can't be real.

So exactly how many John Hustons made this film?

They didn't make the movie, they beat the devil.

I hadn't seen this cover of The Siege and Bruce Willis posted yet.

I posted that one in one of the previous versions of this thread.

Edit: Here it is.

I thought it must've been posted already

Everything here's going to be an anticlimax for a while, but I just happened to notice the latest cover for Hitchcock's Topaz:



Most of Universal's latest repackages look pretty crappy, but this cluttered Blur-O-Vision one looks like the worst.

It's a bad film, but it had at least one cool poster:

The all new adventures of three children terrorized by a giant wolf and a crazy pedophile -- IN 3D!




Howard Duff looks an awful lot like Vittorio Gassman. ](*,)

Is that Asian James Mason I spy in the background?

Probably the best-looking horror cover ever posted in this thread

I'd buy that for a dollar. Probably won't live up to the cheesy awesomeness of that cover, but I'd still buy it for a dollar.

knives. been watching too much robocop lately?

Oh man, now I've got that Hall & Oates song in my head.

It doesn't.

It's strangely reminiscent of the surprise buttsecks scene in Deliverance.

The scenery-chewing tantrum and fake-blood-saturated snow on that cover make me wish the film contained a Bugs Bunny routine: While being dragged back to the Yeti's lair, the guy grabs a bottle of ketchup from just outside the frame, douses himself, and goes into conniptions. "Quick, get a doctor! I'm dyin'!" The yeti is suddenly overcome with worry and remorse and begs the guy not to die, who then says "Aw, I didn't know you cared!" and kisses the yeti full on the mouth.

Alas, that's too inventive for this by-the-numbers (& probably made for Sci-Fi network) Yeti-ized version of ALIVE.
(Please don't assume I went out and bought or even rented this thing. A review copy was sent.)

Grammar lesson 101: removing guilt with the passive voice

"I requested a review copy" becomes "a review copy was sent."

I really like the girl in the blue checked miniskirt in the background. She must be feeling a bit stopped up in the lower gut-- she's looking awfully gleefully at that plunger the chick in the foreground is holding... maybe if we could see her in motion we'd see that what she's doing is a shifty, shuffling, footstomping, cramping, Gotta-Go-Really-Bad Dance.

"Let's Talk Turkey," the most useless source for a quote since Ben Lyons.

This is technically not a cover, just a poster for a 3D show at the Georgia Aquarium:



I'm really surprised that AT&T is sponsoring a blatant Finding Nemo ripoff.
