Gimmicky? Of course. Cool? Hell yeah! I love that it is being made into something fun and it's also a great marketing ploy that is reminiscent of the films that inspired Night of the Creeps in the first place. Only problem I have is that the covers are all pretty lame and I would much rather have the original poster art donning this much-anticipated DVD. Here they are in order of how they appear on Amazon…
Not all that great as I said, the first one is okay and the third cover is just plain awful. For my vote, I went with number two since I think it is the coolest one. Though I do like that each cover choice has a different film era look about them. Still, I would much rather have the REAL cover art, but hey, I’ll just be content with getting the movie on DVD once and for all. Beggars can’t be choosers right? If you are into voting for things that won’t cost you any money to do so, then head over to Amazon and push the buttons on that mouse to vote and be in on the good times that everyone is having. You do not wanna miss out; this is the coolest thing since smoking! You have till the 12th of this month to vote, so head over before it’s too late, then head back here and tell me which one you voted for! Do it for Atkins' mustache.

3 things:
I like your "Amazon should pay me for this" label.
I also enjoy numero dos!
AND I need to start blogging because you are putting me to shame! Go you!
Why in the hell can't these folks ever use the posters anymore? Are we really trying to keep that many art directors in business nowadays?
Have they lost the original art or something?
I voted for number 1 myself, and as long as it's not 3 I'll be happy to hold a legit copy of this in my hands.
Ha ha! Those bastards at Amazon should pay me! (I take gift cards if anyone from Amazon is reading this...and I was joking about the bastards thing)
Number two is the best one...even though it still kinda sucks. But, it's the one I like so that shows your great taste and sense of style.
And if I had the time, I would write a blog everyday!
All 3 of those are junk. It sucks they just don't use the original art, it's classic.
Mob and Dylan: They trully are terrible, and the box art shouldn't be too difficult to recreate. I also think that it's funny that both the first and second one are almost the same, just moved around a little with some different coloring!
A certain "Gentleman" had the great idea of just taking the bootleg DVD he has and putting the art in the slip case, which is what I'll probably do.
Still, it is a fun thing to get the fans involved to a certain extent. It would have been way better if the choices were more along the lines of different covers and poster art from the original release of the film though.
