I have a few DVDs where the actor/s on the front cover do not appear in the film

one example...


there are no sword weilding women in this film, no idea who that is



likewise...no idea who she is...(although she looks a bit like one of the actresses)

Original art:


Comment: Simplistic yet spooky.

DVD art:


Comment: It's just a picture of Jason. Lame.

I like this artwork, as I've not see this film I don't know if it has any reference to the movie, but I like it all the same.

I wouldn't call the DVD art for The Fly II bad (in fact, it's cool), but it doesn't really compare to the original art.

yes it's quite good isn't it. there's no relevance to the movie though, there's no actual woman with lizard skin. the title is actually a quote from a line in the movie.

The newer "special editions" are awesome with their lenticular covers.

^The bottom one is an alpha video cover isn't it? You can see that they made it a mile away without their logo being on it!

What the ???  The DVD artwork is far worse than the movie.  What a shame.  I take it back, the movie was good, not great, but good.

It's not a "TERRIBLE" change to DVD but I loved the original VHS for Alligator




vs. the DVD release



I love everything from the creepy but cheap Alligator as well as the 1950's style font on the title (despite being from 1980)

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
