Is there good original art for this one? A quick search is just giving me floating heads of the main cast, which looks pretty awful.

Dreadful artwork on the steelbook. Amaray wins.

 

[Betonos Le Truel]

The art of scr3wing up image rights of stars and young actors of this movie… Very disappointing.
Next reveal: back art will be a slice of bacon with embossed bullet holes.

Amaray is definitely the way to go.

I like the Steelbook art. I'm in.

If I had some kind of nicer previous steel, I'd just switch/add a UHD disc, but as is, I'll buy this steelbook...

There was a Spanish horizontal DVD steelbook with a better front picture, but it's blank inside, and with a printed back, as was usual then:

Controversial bestseller. Controversial artwork... that's the idea.

Actually the finish on this SteelBook is amazing. Has 2 different feels. Because of the quality finish I prefer the SteelBook in that sense compared to amaray art. Just depends if one values the tactile feel and quality product more then simply art choice.

Was hard for me to capture the difference Basically diff finish from the tear down

Wish we could see the boys faces. Would have paid tribute to their performances in the movie.

It’s intentional, so there's no 'actor likeness' on the cover. I'm surprised they didn't 'rip' their whole heads off...

A lot of times that can be true, pop art etc. I just presumed this was old creative artwork they happened to choose tho and not new art. Though I'm not that familiar with all the art available for Sleepers in the past.
