As you'll see, the Hannah Gordon interview fell through, but was more than compensated by a lively Kim Newman piece and above all by a whopping 1995 interview with Freddie Francis that's almost as long as the main feature. And I can now confirm the option to play either the theatrical or the TV cut according to preference. | Thanks impressive set of extras.
The likes of 88 and 101 need to take a leaf out your book when it comes to extras.
