i'd say yes. got really bad reviews but that's because there were huge expectations with it's massive budget and A list cast. many creepy scenes, beautiful and contemporary art direction and design.
these are my favorite sketchbooks. only $4.48.

and barnes always has them at this price. wire binding allows the book to lay flat and the paper is heavy enough to take light watercolor...
