I should mention that it's not printed on red paper. But it's a full bleed print.

I get the feeling a lot of people have not seen this film. The print captures the mood of the film perfectly. Was unsure about the colors at first, but am digging it in person. Superb detail, as always.

If you're on the fence, get it while prices are (still) low.

I bought one for $49 shipped on Ebay and it just came in. Gorgeous print - no idea why it is so cheap, but I won't argue.

yeah I'm not sure either, maybe the remake tainted the original's legacy? *shrugs*

It's a pretty depressing/disturbing movie, so most people don't want to put it on their wall and be reminded of it. It won't make my wall, but I can certainly take out the print and admire it every once in a while.

Yep, it's more of a niche film and consider the scene it's depicting too. :P

Never really intended to frame this, but I recently got a new frame from Spotlight Displays and threw it in as a test. Was kind of shocked at how good it looks on the wall. Criminally underrated print.

Yeah personally I love it also. Also have it in a clean white frame, though my borders are much thinner. Looks great though!

It's a nice print, but a very depressing movie and a disturbing scene depicted, which is why few folks frame it. :D
