Arrow Video - Mario Bava's Bay of Blood - Archive Conversation

Much better selection now. I'll be using either 2 or 4.

New Nr. 4 ist sooooooo much better than the old one. I still think it remains the weak spot of the 4 but it's okay.

My favourite!

I like all the art for this, especially 1 and 2. Having not seen this film yet I don't see the problem with cover 1. But if it has nothing to do with the film then I can see peoples point. Will this release have picture cards like the city of the living dead has? This would be great and please almost everyone with having lots more art. I think it is great that we get to see the choices for the packages before they come out. Most companies just release stuff and you have to take it or leave it.

It's going to be a tough choice between 2, 3 and 4 for me...

Is bay of blood the original name?
I like having different names on the different covers. It make you more knowlegable. I mean I only found out that I spit on your grave was originally Day of the woman.

I believe the original title was L’Ecologia del Delitto which translates to The Ecology of a Crime.

Does anyone know if both the Italian and English versions will be included on the BD? The Italian version is actually a completely different film - the scenes and shots are identical but all the dialogue scenes are completely different takes acted in Italian whereas the English version has takes acted in English. The thing is that the Italian version is a much nicer looking film, the zooms and dolly shots are a lot smoother and all those rough edges (like the overly active zoom in the petrol station scenes) are much more even.

Well I like the new cover 4!
I also realize it was probably next to impossible to get a decent high res image of the original Italian artwork.
