Ah, didn't realise Facebook did that type of trickery! I just thought a heads-up was in order, just in case anyone did get the wrong idea.

This might be pushing it but.........how about a uncut version of the movie in HD? Seems like im the only one who cares about that!:-(

:doh:

:confused:

It will probably turn up uncut at some stage from a non-U.K based label, but as far as the good old BBFC/U.K censorship laws go, this is as good as you'll get I'm afraid.

Edited to add this link to the Cannibal Holocaust/BBFC advice discussion : http://www.cult-labs.com/forums/cann...fc-advice.html

Even if the uncut version does show up on Blu-ray at some point, I'd like to own both that and this version to have the full film and Deodato's new edit as that way I'll have different extra features, different artwork and different edits.

Have Shameless ever considered setting up a non-UK based company (Shameless EU perhaps?) just for the purposes of releasing films like CH fully uncut?

Imagine the increased market for a fully uncut Blu Ray of this with all the extras... and you would be the only label in the world to be issuing it.

Of course you'd need worldwide distribution rights, but would the extra income be worth it?

You obviously haven't read any of my posts. If you had, you'd know you're not the only one who wants a full uncut version in HD. However, that's unlikely to ever happen here in the UK and we are therefore discussing the UK release, which, be fair, has an intrigue all of its own with Deodato supervising a new edit. Although I advocate seeing the film uncut, I'm also extremely interested in seeing Deodato's reworking of this ferocious classic and I commend Shameless for taking this brave step.

Anyway....back to limited edition packaging........

I voted for LE packaging on both but I wouldn't be too unhappy if it was just for the bluray. The idea about a Shameless EU is certainly an interesting concept but I doubt it'd be possible.

The logistics of setting up a sister company in Europe is probably tricky. However, If Vipco managed it....

I think Ltd Ed packaging should be available for both DVD and Blu-ray, so everyone can enjoy it! :)
