Is that the final art for the cover?!

It's the left half of the British Quad poster. I would have preferred the US one sheet.

Much better.

Don't know.  It's what is showing on the only announcement I found for it.

Maybe you could print the poster that Mike posted here and slip it in the front of your DVD case...?

Soon.

Leif Jonker's underground vampire-gore favorite DARKNESS is getting a major hi-def makeover from Arrow Video

https://www.rue-morgue.com/exclusive-comments-details-plus-art-trailer-leif-jonkers-darkness-restored-on-blu-ray-by-arrow-video/

Leif is currently working on this release and getting our local Horrorfest Movie Festival ready for the 9th amazing year. This movie was filmed in Kansas over two years, and became an underground hit. I can't wait to see this new release in HD.

I only remember the title because of the Goldsmith score.

Can't wait for that Scars of Dracula. One of the few Hammer vampire films I don't own on dvd. While were at it, I wish someone would release Hammer's The Abominable Snowman on blue ray. Don't own that either.
