The movie sounds pretty strange, but I really like that packaging.
I haven't seen this but am very interested. The cover looks really cool, reminds me of the one used for Grease SE. I might get this.
I just love Bruce Campbell, and considering the original dvd is hard to find I'll probably blind-buy this. Love the packaging.
This movie's excellent. Don't know why I'd double-dip for it, though, if there's nothing else new on the disc...
I haven't seen this one, neither do I know that much about the premise. Except for Bruce Campbell playing THE KING!!!... oh, and something about...

a mummy???

Btw, THAT IS ONE SWEET PACKAGING!!!!

Awesome movie. I probably would've double-dipped if they added some new features. Especially if they would've included tidbits about the sequel, "Bubba Nosferatu and the Curse of the She-Vampires".

Change pretty to very and you're on the money.
It was strange and different but I liked it.

What's so bad about strange? I never understood why people like to err on the side of caution and act surprised when something new winds up exciting them. Everything good is new in some way. It may not be original in concept but perhaps something in execution or context or acting or directing, etc.
On that note, I will buy this eventually as I am a fan.

I was extremely disappointed by this as a fan of both Bruce and Don Coscarelli. Just didn't do much for me. And um, the King's...condition (if you've seen it, you know what I mean) was a bit much for me.
Cool - great little movie - but isn't the sequel around the corner?
if by around the corner you mean still in pre-production, then yes, it is.
Where's the 2-disc special edition promised years ago!? The Uk has had it for quite awhile!
