Well, that's why they made these important films -- to finally teach the likes of us lapsed Catholics the truthiness of the Apocalypse.

I picked up a free promotional poster of the Left Behind cover a year ago. I gave Kirk Cameron an eyepatch.

As if the covers and the stupid edition names weren't bad enough on their own, I love the fact that American money didn't even look like that when Trading Places came out.

Say what you will, but I desperately want to live in a world where Don Ameche is on the $20 bill.

Wow. I'm sure it's been brought up before, but this is awful. Is the bed on the side of the road?

That one truly is one of the worst ever.Steven H wrote:Wow. I'm sure it's been brought up before, but this is awful. Is the bed on the side of the road?

Every element in the design of that cover is completely disturbing: colorization of a black and white film, layout (really, bed at the side of the road), title--but what I really love is the alliteration worthy of Daffy Duck's spittle: "Suspense as startling as a strangled scream". Do these DVD producers actually hate the films they work on? Honestly, it seams intentional at times.

They were listening and changed the cover:TheGodfather wrote:I think that the Region 1 cover of The Fountain is pretty bad (understatement)

Nice post. I love the godzilla type lightning bolts thwacking the fucking car coming up the road. What the fuck..?Steven H wrote:Wow. I'm sure it's been brought up before, but this is awful. Is the bed on the side of the road?
Not to mention that they just dumped the ending right out on the floor for everyone to see, with the cord wrapped around savage's neck.

Though, to be fair, they do admit that it's only as startling as a strangled scream.

I think we can lock this thread now. That's got to be the worst cover ever, never to be bested. Though I do like how it looks like a big box VHS cover from back in the day.

Sadly, I'll probably be picking up the "Soul Glow" edition of Coming To America. I can't believe I don't already own that movie.

EDIT: I didn't have to, skuhn8 said it for me:
Although now that I've looked back through this thread to find the first time it was posted, I think this is really the absolute worst.skuhn8 wrote:I think this thread can be closed: this is definitely the winner. How the hell could something like this go into production? Just package it in a brown paper bag instead a la Zep's In through the Out Door

Ahhh.. God Raquel oversees the floating riders in the sky:
LIBERTY VAL: John Wayne is about to blow his own head off from the jaw up, and Jimmy Stewart is about to shoot some cat in the balls or thigh.
I love the time lapse in the middle French cap: Stewart is about to blow away those pesky hallucinated mini-indians about to gallop onto his shoulder with his upside down gun... while holding back a bad meal it keeps repeating on him... later, those indians he couldn't blow away over his shoulder, he whips around to face square on.

Actually I saw a different Dvd cover for Stallone's Over The Top (made between Rambo's II and III), which I thought deserved an appearance here. It had Sly and another fake tough guy arm-wrestling, or holding hands or whatever, with a small silver truck behind them. Cheesy and bland. I can't find an image for that.
But this cover might be worse, and is certainly a mess.
Personally I get rather angry when a wrecked car impales my abs.
Of course, you still have to watch out for the attack of the giant hood ornament.
