No no, that's a brilliant cover!

It's very pulpy novel Dick-ian.

I'm with you on this - it looks a college-kid's work from a weekend assignment.

Amazon lists the below as the artwork for the Presige DVD...I sure hope its not right, because the only thing missing there is 'Uwe Ball presents....'

That artwork is not final, but I've seen the retail version. Not much difference. The fonts have been cleaned up and one critic's quote has been added. Still, a major disgrace.

The posters they started their marketing with were also in the same vain. Guess they have chosen some really bad creative heads.
