Just in case you didn't pick this disc up already - or if you're a crazed SteelBook collector, Lionsgate is giving you a pretty slick reason to add American Psycho - 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray to your collection!
and here's a look at the not so subtle back artwork:
Currently up for pre-order at Best Buy for $19.99 - this set looks to be the exact same discs and content as before, just all souped up with some fancy new packaging. Normally I don't leap for these SteelBook reissues if I already have the original, but I'm damn tempted to add this one. Lionsgate loves their plastic slipcovers and this new artwork is boss!
What do you think, worth grabbing again or worth getting for the first time just for the SteelBook art, or are you going to stick with the original release?
As always - thank you for your preorders, they go a long way towards keeping our little operation up and running.
Here's the full press release from Lionsgate:

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
From acclaimed director Mary Harron and staring Christian Bale in his career-making performance as Patrick Bateman, comes the exciting re-release of the unhinged cult-classic AMERICAN PSYCHO. American Psycho arrives October 5th on 4K Ultra HD™ Steelbook from Lionsgate, exclusively at Best Buy. Patrick Bateman (Christian Bale) is a Wall Street yuppie, obsessed with success, status, and style, with a stunning fiancée (Reese Witherspoon). He is also a psychotic killer who rapes, murders, and dismembers both strangers and acquaintances without provocation or purpose. Based on the controversial novel, the film offers a sharp satire to the dark side of yuppie culture in the ‘80s, while setting forth a vision that is both terrifying and chilling. Featuring all new artwork from artist Justin Erickson, American Psycho will be available on 4K Ultra HD™ Steelbook at Best Buy for the suggested retail price of $27.99.
