The slip case is the exclusive part i think.

I think the slipcover is the only exclusive thing about the Indiegogo ZH release, and Amazon et al will probably be getting the standard amaray release. I'm not sure whether HMV will get the slipcover too though as they seem to be doing a line of exclusive covers at the moment where 88 films are concerned (albeit just the Troma Toxie films so far).

EDIT: Dem beat me to it

As i understand it if they don't reach their target they will be releasing it using the current HD master.

Or not at all.

From what i read the Shriek Show release isn't much better than the dvd.

So if understand you go to the indiego page thingy and depending on how much you donate you get said perks? Sorry if I'm being thick.

That's correct.

And no you aren't being thick. You are learning how Indiegogo works.

Edit - From 88 Films.

IF WE CAN'T DELIVER OUR STATED GOAL OF REMASTERING ZOMBI HOLOCAUST FROM THE IN-CAM NEG AND HAVE TO USE THE EXISTING HD SOURCE THEN YOU WILL BE REFUNDED. OUR FULL INTENTION, HOWEVER, IS TO GO AHEAD WITH THIS NEW SCAN. SO WE DO NOT EXPECT IT TO COME TO THIS!

All the more reason to contribute what you can in order to get a new HD encoding.

That's a pretty damn good perk. I may just go for that one myself.

If you consider the BDs normally cost £14 at Amazon and even factoring in they cost less at HMV, the price in the rewards is about £10 each, with the Zombi Holocaust BDs (and T-shirt etc) coming for free! Even pledging £20 and receiving the Zombi Holocaust BD with slipcase seems really good. All in all, I think they are very good value for money.

I'm more likely to go for Perk 7 – it's what I can afford – a little later this month.
