It must be absolutely sole destroying for a company who puts in the effort and then sells what will be 5 films on blu-ray for £45 (or whatever the price was) only to have some self entitled nut come along and whine that 13 precious seconds of two cocks fighting each other has been removed so they want their money back as it wasn't as described. Is it any wonder some companies just don't bother these days?
To think it wasn't that long ago we were paying stupid money for pan and scan video tapes usually complete with Dutch subtitles running through the film and thats if you were even able to find these films and get them through the customs.
How does a cut like that in anyway change the film? and before people cry about preserving the directors intentions as they know best, tell that to the legions of Star Wars fans and see how far that argument gets you.
My only complaint about Deep River Savages is that not enough of the animal footage was cut out as I'd gladly take all of the cannibal films with an option to completely jump over this unnecessary footage as in the Cannibal Holocaust release
Considering that Massacre in Dinosaur Valley complete with a 1080p brand new scan cost the grand total of £9 if you bought into the first option, anyone who bought it got a real bargain and if 13 seconds ruins the experience for you then maybe its time to find a new hobby and find other things to invest your £9 on.
