This evening, I went food shopping in NJ. I had to get a bunch of stuff for the Super Bowl party I'm hosting. While I was online for checkout I looked to my right, there they had discounted, previously viewed DVDs. Front and center was the above title for $2.00. I laughed out loud (or LOL for those of you under 26) the instant it came into view. Is it not the most hideous DVD cover ever foisted upon the buying public? They had to be joking, it's the worst photoshop job I've ever seen anywhere...period. I don't think anyone could even reasonably try to do a job a shoddy as the job that was done on this. Of course it was so ridiculous I had to buy it for $2.00, it makes me laugh to even think about it.

Whole lotta slummin' goin' on. Ronee Blakely, only 3 years from winning an Oscar in Nashville. Apparently married to Wim Wenders at the time, though divorced in '81. Maybe this flick had something to do with it...
And if dat dere wuzn't enought...take a gander at the alternate cover for this here epic:

"An epic tale of a man who's head was the size of Texas..."
Wow. That one IS worse. How did they manage that?
At least it has pix of Glenn and Blakely that are contemporary to the period of the film. It still is pretty effin ugly. Glenn's head looks like it's snapped off of 1970's plastic action figure or from one of those marionette based TV shows, none of which I recall the titles of.
