I watched this yesterday and thought it looked superb.The best I've ever seen it.
Tell me something Mark,the scene where they are transplanting the monster's hands and Briant states he can't hold the vein and stitch it at the same time,so Cushing demands a glass of water and holds the vein between his teeth as hi hands are knackered.
I don't recall seeing this before and I have owned the Terrorvision vhs(Which if I remember right,was butchered),the DD UK DVD the Dutch DVD and the German Hammer Edition dvd (Which tbh I haven't watched for a few years).
I'll need to double check the German disc,which is supposedly uncut....But I definitely don't remember that scene....
Anyway-Daemonia-big fan of this-grab one mate you won't be disappointed.
It's region B as well.
