House By The Cemetery would 100% pass uncut. Of that there's no doubt. The BBFC wanted to pass it last time but a prosecution of someone dealing in uncut imports scuppered it. Incidentally there appears to have been a recent release of the film by the dubious AGPlate. I don't know of the cut/uncut status of it (apparently it's a port of the 23rd Century DVD) but it certainly isn't a legal BBFC-certified release.

I'm really not sure about sales for reissuing the cannibal films. Granted they'd be less cut than before but would people who own the uncut foreign DVD's actually buy them again?

The reason I would push for Night Of The Demon is because it would be a 100% Shameless worldwide exclusive. It would definitely attract overseas sales as well, as the film has quite a following and is often mentioned on many a horror forum. In fact it used to have its own fan site as well, though this seems to have vanished (maybe Bigfoot got it).
