Picked up my "Manhattan Baby" today from my favourite import shop in Helsinki. Since this is a Fulci I haven't seen before I'm really curious what I'll think of it- though the Wilsons' review certainly made me look forward to it. |

My favourite dvds from Shamesless so far
My favourite dvds from Shameless so far are, TORSO-the best dvd of this film anywhere as it has the correct beginning to the film, compared to R1 Anchor Bay. FLAVIA THE HERETIC-the R1 from Synapse, although has an interview with Florinda Bolkan, the film doesn't fill the screen entirely on the right. MY DEAR KILLER-although no interviews on the Shameless dvd, it has the correct opening scene. On the R1 Media Blasters dvd, credits appear before the opening murder, when on the Shameless dvd the credits appear after the murder.I have already ordered WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO YOUR DAUGHTERS? and looking forward to seeing this giallo. Well done Shameless! |

Buying uncut dvds
When I first bought dvds many years ago, being a horror film especially, I have bought a vast majority of uncut dvds. Some of which are permanently cut e.g. THE CONVENT, Tobe Hooper's TOOLBOX MURDERS (R1 dvd has some extra gore on the special features), JASON X, FRIDAY THE 13 parts 2-8. I have since sold the F13 dvds. But it's a shame, in this day and age we are not allowed to see the films in their entirety. I check on DVDcompare.net IMDB etc. but there is always some film that the greedy studios will not release uncut. SCREAM, if I'm not mistaken was released on laserdisc in the unrated directors cut. But when released on dvd, they cut 20 or so seconds out it. I know there are uncut versions of SCREAM around, but it's a case of pleasing the 'Blockbuster crowd' in America. My first R1 dvds I bought were De Palma's DRESSED TO KILL (R rated & unrated with great features), Fulci's THE BEYOND & THE NEW YORK RIPPER and Argento's TENEBRE. Who else agrees with buying only uncut dvds? |

If the only way I could own a particular film was in cut form then I would buy it rather than do without . IMHO just because a film is cut is no reason to rule out buying it, especially if thats the only way its available . Some films are very well cut and edited so it dosent spoil the movie , so in that case I dont mind, especially if it dosent interfere with the plot. as in the case of Shameless's release of NY Ripper. ( I haven't seen Venus but im told its the same.) I would naturally prefer the full uncut version , but I would never leave my collection incomplete due to the sole reason a films cut. |

I've been impressed with the Shameless discs I've seen. Personal favourites are PHANTOM OF DEATH and WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO YOUR DAUGHTERS, as these releases blow my previous discs (the Spanish Manga Films and UK Salvation, respectively) well and truly out of the water.
