Seeing this image on a DVD news site gave me an idea for a thread.  Usually they're Direct to DVD horror movies but sometimes DVDs can have covers so hideous that they're funny as hell. Post up some of the better ones you've seen........ |

Post up some of the better ones you've seen........ I wouldn't buy a DVD where the cover was simply DVDACTIVE.COM. I've heard good things about it. It's about 3 CGi DVD's (voiced by Tom Arnold, Jessica Alba and Billy West respectively) who travel the cosmos, battle their darkest enemies (a VHS voiced by Jon Lovitz and a Blu Ray disc voiced by Maurice LaMarche) so that they can finally reach the DVD Player of Ultimate Destiny and save the universe!!! Rated PG.  |

Oh God where to begin....honestly, I have found that it's usually the bigger studios with more money who have the WORST movie posters. A lot of the indie/b-grade horror films have AWESOME covers for their DVDs....many of them getting into the lenticular/moving art now.
I nominate each and every one of the "floating heads" DVD covers. Those are unimaginative and boring, and do not sell the film in any way.

Maybe it's just the camera angle, but the first Shark movie, her head doesn't even look attached to her body.

 I hate those comedy covers like Mac said when you just know that ass hole trailer guy is doing a voice over like... 'He thought he met the love of his life, but uh oh, he still has his best friend forever...rated PG-13.' Basically the Rob Schneider parody on South Park. Funny how that is a HD-DVD cover, perfect analogy for a god awful film. *edit* Oh and for just plain awful, uninspired, cliche covers, here's one.  |
