Censorship

[Smagmata]

As The Hospital sales skyrocket in Europe it once again proves that censorship does not fundamentally work. I'm 100% behind keeping a movie like this from children, but trying to stop adults? Give me a break.... retards.

I picked up the UK version this week for £3.50

Just as importantly because it comes in a silver / grey case. Identical to a certain dvd range.

Looking at the BBFC website it says uncut. So either they are lying or there are different cuts of the film for different territories. Perhaps we have the R rated version rather than an unrated one.

Ah right. That's pathetic isn't it? From what was cut i doubt the BBFC would have cut all of it.

Still, if the cuts make the film unwatchable, those silver cases aren't easy to get hold of and i've been dreading damaging a Doctor Who dvd due to lack of a replacement case.

Yeah, I'm interested in seeing it purely because of the controversy surrounding it, but I've read it's pretty poor uncut anyway, so I'll wait til it's cheap on Amazon before I splash out on the US DVD

I do tend to get on well with zero budget scuzzy junk though. Hence my love for films like The Stitcher, Hells Highway, Angst and The Goatman Murders.
