*BBFC fringe title

[Angel]

The Beast in Heat, Gestapo's and Women Behind Bars are the only three the BBFC still haven't seen.

[vincenzo]

I wonder when (or if) the BBFC will eventually see them. I reckon Women Behind Bars will possibly be the first of those three to be submitted.

[Pete]

I thought Women Behind Bars was mild compared to some of Franco's other stuff.

[Angel]

Overall Women Behind Bars is quite tame, just one scene that is likely to cause problems here.

I can't see Beast in Heat being submitted.

[Pete]

Hardgore were thinking about submitting The Beast in Heat but changed their mind.

[Angel]

That doesn't surprise me.

[Pete]

I think Inferno might sqeeze through uncut.

[vincenzo]

Inferno was cut in two places due to animal (cat) cruelty. It depends on how the BBFC would view this now. Very much a fringe title.
