The Shameless version misses the featurette about Nicoletta Elmi, and it has a different commentary track. Thats not enough for me to buy it again though

It?s unfortunate that Shameless seem to issue Blu rays that another company has released an excellent edition of months before. FOOTPRINTS being an example. I already have the Severin release, but probably would have held off and bought the Shameless edition if I?d known it was forthcoming.
It?s a pity Shameless couldn?t upgrade to Blu Ray some of their titles that aren?t so available, such as FORMULA FOR A MURDER, THE WASHING MACHINE etc.

We know about the 'Footprints' re-release, but *this* appears to have slipped through the net

"NEW ANNOUNCEMENTS

We're delighted to announce the upcoming release of not one, but two, new releases from Shameless! This Easter, Shameless presents two new additions to your Blu-Ray collection: Luigi Bazzoni?s FOOTPRINTS ON THE MOON and Giulio Berruti?s KILLER NUN. Two distinctive thrillers that epitomise the essence of Italian genre cinema from the dynamic 1970s era.

Prepare to step into the mystery of lost memories in Luigi Bazzoni?s FOOTPRINTS ON THE MOON. Starring Florinda Bolkan and Klaus Kinski, this enigmatic Italian thriller follows Alice, a translator haunted by gaps in her memory as she ventures to a seaside town for answers. But as Alice delves deeper into the mystery, the boundary between reality and nightmare begins to blur.
Drawing inspiration from real events, the provocatively titled, KILLER NUN, features Swedish screen icon Anita Ekberg in the lead role. Portraying the titular Nun, Ekberg's character grapples with the dichotomy of her duties as a Sister tasked with healing the sick while battling personal demons of addiction. As the death toll mounts within the hospital walls, the nun's struggle with her inner turmoil leads her down a dark and sinister path.
FOOTPRINTS ON THE MOON and KILLER NUN are now available to order and ready for shipping exclusively from https://www.shameless-films.com in advance of their official release dates. Customers who order directly from us will receive exclusive low serial numbered editions for both titles, ensuring you don?t miss out on your chance to own these limited editions."


Killer Nun

"KILLER NUN [REGION-FREE, UNCUT, NEW RESTORED 1080P ENCODE ? LIMITED SERIAL-NUMBERED EDITION]

Dubbed ?The Sex Symbol of the silver screen?, Anita Ekberg, renowned for her iconic frolicking in the Trevi Fountain in Fellini?s ?La Dolce Vita,? delivers an amazingly unique barn-storming performance in ?THE KILLER NUN.? In an interview exclusive to this edition, Ekberg reveals her frustration with the ?bombshell? typecasting that followed, expressing a preference for working on films like ?Killer Nun? and she boldly declares, ?This is the kind of film I like!?

Originally banned as a Video Nasty, ?Killer Nun? is a true ?Nunsploitation? great, which uniquely crosses into the Giallo genre. Presented here uncut and pristinely restored from a 2K scan of the camera negative, this release finally does justice to the uninhibited and frenzied vision of its creator. With impressive high-style photography and vivid, deliciously surreal murders, it is superbly enhanced by the dreamy yet dystopian score of Alessandro Alessandroni (immortalised by his twangy guitar and his legendary whistling in Sergio Leone?s westerns). The music itself is a manic masterpiece.

Based on a true story, Ekberg?s captivating presence and tour-de-force performance portrays a nun who turns junkie and engages in robbery, possibly torture and murder of pensioners in a church-run Elderly Care Home ? all while luring young nuns with her sapphic desires! The Nun is abetted by a hunky doctor played by Andy Warhol?s superstar prot?g?, Joe D?Alessandro (also spelt Joe Dallesandro, he was lionised as ?Little Joe? in Lou Reed?s famed ?Walk On The Wild Side?).?

Special Features:
  • Unique Interview with Fellini?s Muse and iconic silver-screen Sex-Symbol, Anita Ekberg
  • Interview with director Giulio Berruti ?God is the Drug?
  • Audio commentary by UK Film-Critic and Genre-Expert Rachael Nisbet
  • English + separate alternative Original Audio version.
  • New Full 1080P 1.85:1 Widescreen Blu-ray Encode
  • The Director of Public Prosecution?s Video Nasty is now fully uncut and pristinely restored from 2K scanned original negative.

Whilst low serial numbers (up to No 250) are assured from this website only, no specific number within that range can be guaranteed."

they are also re-release mountain of the cannibal god as well its supposed to be a new 2k remaster' but to me it's a complete waist of time because it's still going to be cut by 2 minutes.
