That always seems to happen.You wait and wait,then give in and buy something and as soon as you do,another edition is announced. :eek:

Init just! I was holding off for a while, thinking Arrow might release it! Let's see what happens now that I've also ordered the R1 Zombie! (don't even tell me if you have news!:lol:)

Yes Platinum's editors needed a kick up the backside, as the cut shot was painfully obvious. The old Redemption video (which additionally removed the brief scene of the two dogs playfighting) was edited far better.

Exceptional news! I can't see the BBFC maintaining the cuts now, but they have surprised me before!

There's no justification for cutting the cat on mouse "nature footage" and the cat to chair bit is quite clearly not a real moggie!

Whatever, even if the BBFC succumb to absurdity (as they have a history of doing...:lol: ), well done to Arrow for getting out a UK DVD of this bizarrely neglected film!

Why do you think it would pass uncut now, Vince?

Just a feeling I have. The shot itself is very brief and some previous (though non-graphic or prolonged) previously cut cruelty footage has been waived of late. If they were prepared to pass Pink Flamingos intact (far nastier scene) then I can't see the cut to Profondo being retained.

The cat/chair scene in Inferno was an additional video cut. I'll rewatch this again to see how it could possibly fare today.

From what I remember about the cat/chair scene is that the cats head hitting the chair is shown in an extreme close up shot, the shot lasts about several frames. You would need to freeze frame the shot and perhaps zoom in to really determine whether that was a real cat or not. It's certainly possible that it was faked. I think the cat/mouse scene has more chance of being cut. Will rewatch the uncut version again to have another look.

Looking at the screencaps I still think this will have problems though I could be wrong. Very much a fringe one.

Great news! Hopefully, we'll get some nice extras. This would look wonderful on Blu? Any chance of a Blu-ray release?

That Arrow collection is soon gonna be up to the same numbers as Shameless.
Side by side on a shelf,what could look cooler?
