Does anybody have knowledge on whether or not this is going to be released again later through the arrow shop like The Beyond was?

Yea limited to 2000 so might not make it to Arrow shop, unless Zavvi have 2000 and Arrow have 2000??

Golf clap to Arrow for this one! It will be a BEAUTY AS USUAL!!! Ordered? CHECK!!!

then it wouldn't be a zavvi exclusive.

Its possible this may happen but with this release this but will only happen if Zavvi are unable to sell out their stock of 2000

If Zavvi cant shift 2000 units Arrow Video would be willing to take any unsold stock and then make available for sale on Arrow Video online shop

But with this release I don't see that happening

The previous Zavvi exclusive The Beyond - Zavvi Exclusive Limited Edition Steelbook was different this was an exclusive for a limited period only with Zavvi not a limited print run
After that time period lapsed it was made available for sale with Arrow Video Online and other retailers

That's not the case with these new Arrow Video Steelbooks given to Zavvi as exclusives they are limited to 2000 (3000 limited for Day of the Dead) and not limited time period exclusive releases but if they cant sell these then Arrow Video will take back any unsold stock

This question was asked and the reply was it will only be available from us if there is stock left in a few months time. If this is one you are keen to pick up we would suggest you purchase direct from Zavvi.

I love, love, love the artwork, but I already have the slipbox version which is pretty great. So I'm just having a tough time pulling the trigger on a double dip for this title. But man, that art is too sick.

Pre-ordered!

If we have now had Zombie Flesh Eaters, The Beyond and now City of The Living Dead, then surely it is only a matter of time till House By The Cemetery arrives on the scene

Thanks Elvis, Updated OP!

 

[Punky Partridge]

Anyone had this dispatched yet or is this another Indiana Jones/Captain America 2 delayed release?

 

[Heche1981]

I hope Arrow Video learn their lesson from this cock-up, and go back to listing their SteelBooks on Amazon, instead of offering Zavvi the exclusive. I know they are just a small indie studio publishing obscure films and need all the support they can get, but do they really need the support of Zavvi when they give such poor service?

 

[Wreck]

I love the finish when they do the smooth feel. Arrow does a lot of those.
