Star Trek: The Motion Picture Fits a slim double-alpha, to match the other slim Star Trek movie spines. I've removed the honking-wide yellow spine and Director's Edition text - to make it so.

My Bloody Valentine

The dumb shmucks at Paramount altered their artwork of this movie on DVD, so I had to alter it back.

April Fool's Day

The fools at Paramount re-colored the original artwork, so I redid the cover.

Terror Train

LIkewise, Fox butchered the Terror Train artwork,
so I made a cover using the original.

Happy Birthday to Me

I have created different sets of spines and cannot decide which is better, so both exist.

Burnt Offerings MGM's official R1 DVD cover was fine, but I originally began this cover to replace the terrible Region 2 artwork- using the NTSC VHS designs.	Let's Scare Jessica to Death Pretty pink and purple cover for a freaky-as-hell 1971 movie!
Brainwash 1983 Corporate Horror Film starring Yvette Mimieux	DOLLS For the Region 0 Hong Kong disc.
Creepshow I've converted the cheapass cardboard snapper and made the spine match the Anchor Bay Creepshow 2 spine, so they'll look nice beside each other on the shelf.	The Funhouse I used the classic VHS artwork, which Goodtimes DVD had taken and ruined.
Death Ship A nice DVD cover for a VHS conversion. After all these years, this spooky ship movie still scares the crap out of me!	The People Under The Stairs For us folks who got the Portuguese cover, here's an English version!

The spine is completely custom, because I couldn't stand the corny lettering on the white background..	The Muppets Take Manhattan Custom cover, with the front original poster artwork taken from DVD Coverart.com. (Thanks to Sosai X). The spine I designed, because the official release sucked. .
Looney Tunes: Back in Action I hated the cramped artwork they used on the official DVD, so I opted for the grander Theatrical Poster of the characters standing on top of the world.	Super Mario Bros. My favorite DVD cover - made for the Region 0 Hong Kong DVD.
