House of the Long Shadows (Pete Walker, 1983)

[smileysmile18]

This needs a release so badly. Don't think it's out anywhere in the world. The only film starring Peter Cushing, Vincent Price, Christopher Lee AND John Carradine! And directed by Pete "Frightmare" Walker! I was so disappointed it wasn't on the otherwise exemplary Pete Walker coffin boxset from ABUK. Coulda done with this instead of Die Screaming Marianne.....

Fully agree. Schizo could also do with an uncut UK release too.

I'd love to see an uncut Schizo.

I've got the EUROSHOCK DVD R1 of SCHIZO is it fully uncut?A gem of a movie,as all Walker's are..........I'm sure MGM own the rights to HOTLS.....maybe they'll release one year as a MIDNITE MOVIE...

[vincenzo]

Yep, the Euroshock release is fully uncut.

A huge disappointment & certainly Walker's worst film.Way overlong as well.Frightmare is still probably his best film IMHO.

Schizo is 'due' to be released by Redemption next month (probably uncut).

This Walker effort is also out from Odeon soon.Just posted today in the BBFC recent decisions section:-

From the RT it looks like an NTSC transfer.

Oh well, sounds like it might be a little disappointing then. Shame as I have been waiting to see it for years.

By the way, Mark, very nice to see you here

I wouldn't say Schizo is his worst - it has its moments and is worth seeing.

Agree about Frightmare though - a bloody classic!
