Picked my copy up at HMV today, one thing that's always puzzled me is the 'Cannes Dub' why is it considered hilliarious?

I didn't find it hilarious,I just think the soft spoken english accent they used for Inspector Santini (Urbano Barberini) was completely wrong.The american accent they used was much better.

Agreed... but I have 3 copies of it and saw it on the big screen in Italy. Can we say 'Argento whore'?

Oh right I've always wondered what was meant to be so funny about it, bad dubs are part of the Euro Horror scene afterall.

It happens. I hated The Howling 3 and somehow found myself buying 3 different copies of it.

Nick's currently beavering away on a review of Opera as I type this.

Seeing as I am in possession of our Anchor Bay copy, I had to relay my impressions when comparing the two copies. From what I could ascertain, the Arrow version has a more natural colour pallette, and the Anchor Bay colours look like they have been boosted.

Watched this last night. Lovely print and great selection of trailers. Excellent booklet and poster make this a terrific package for what is arguably Argento's last great film.
