Lionsgate has teamed up with Best Buy for another exclusive SteelBook of 4K UHD product they've simultaneously given "wide release" in standard packaging. See some of the links I've included below for information on what the disc contents are, and look below in the Supplements section for my thoughts on the SteelBook design.

On disc supplements are detailed in the above linked review. This release comes with a kind fun if gory SteelBook design that some may feel may have been crafted by Vincent Van Gogh (that's a bloody ear joke, in case it wasn't clear). An acetate O-Ring actually has an image of the ear which, when the O-Ring is removed, offers an even more bloody look at a seriously wounded head (contrast the first picture I've uploaded to this review with the sixth for a look at the difference). The dribbles of blood on the front cover kind of morph into the characters, as can also be seen in that picture. The back cover, as shown in pictures two and three, isn't much to write home about, but offers a bit of a depiction of a focal location of the film. Inside are all important chalk outlines of bodies. As with the wide release, a digital copy is enclosed.
Quentin Tarantino may not be everyone's cup of tea, whether that be T for Testosterone or THC (maybe both), but for the initiated, Reservoir Dogs is a visceral viewing experience. This SteelBook should appeal to fans of the film with a simple but effective design. Highly recommended.
