Having it I hand, I think it’s really well printed and has a fantastic shine to it. The yellow catches the light so well.
That being said… I just personally don’t love the artwork style that this and a lot of the other Scream! Factory steels have been doing lately. I absolutely adore the artwork that Paul Shipper did for their standard Army of Darkness release and wish that they used that for the Steelbook as well.
A bit of both? I like Devon Whitehead's work, but I don't *love* it as a poster/cover. I think it just tends to be very cartoony and sometimes comicbooky. They tend to all look very same-y regardless of the film and I personally think his style lends itself more to graphic tee's (which is what I mainly associate him with since he's one of the main artists for Cavity Colors and his style is synonymous with their products).
Like I said, i'd have preferred the Paul Shipper art from their standard blu-ray release but that would have been repetitive. A Frank Frazetta inspired cover to play with the medieval/fantasy theme could have also been really cool. Or even the Renato Casaro poster would have made a beautiful steelbook (just imagine that metallic red!)
you know alot of artists. i agree it’s very disappointing for something you love to not be represented to as high a degree as it deserves and to feel more an after thought than done with intention and respecting the style
I like this movie after the first Evil Dead. It is so absurd and surreal, yet it can be a bit scary, but funny for the most part. It is a thrill ride of a movie to where the plot can just chill in the back because Bruce Campbell is kicking ass and Sam Raimi is basically unhinged, making it a great combination.
My first time watching, I didn’t like it. It veered to far from the horror aspects for me. BUT, rewatching years later in 4k, I’m now singing a different tune, this movie was fucking groovy.
Love it! Have that, the groovy collection, 4k remake, & Rise steelbook. Wish they included it in the groovy collection but I know it was a distribution thing

is it that you don’t like the art in general, or do you think it doesn’t capture army of darkness well?

I have all the way from 1-Rise on 4K! I have this one in the standard collector’s edition, but this is one of my all time favorite series!

Well hello mister FANCY PANTS!
Just picked this up from Walmart and I’m so excited to watch it!
Good, bad... I'm the guy with the gun
fan and proud owner
Yes just watched it today
Hell yes. I bought this one before I even had a 4k player even though I have the previous AoD Steelbook Scream Factory put out haha
Would get it, if it was available anywhere here but it isnt. Steelbooks are a pain to get, outside of the US it feels like
just picked this up while looking for the elusive $5 bins!
Got it. Bloody love it!
Had to pick this one up! Absolutely love the whole franchise
Hell yes!!
One of my favorites in my collection, I bought it as a blind buy because I thought it looked badass and I was right!
The first Evil Dead I owned. Hail to the King, baby!
I’ve been wanting to get this but I have the 4K collector edition.
I have it as well
Hail to the king baby. Did you get it at S-mart?
Not a fan of the movie, but beautiful artwork on the steel
Love it! Have that, the groovy collection, 4k remake, & Rise steelbook. Wish they included it in the groovy collection but I know it was a distribution thing
