Given up on HKFlix then mate? ;) :biggrin:

Which version did you watch, reaps? The shorter or longer version?

I'll probably plump for the US Blu-ray, which has the longer cut on it. :)

HMV have The Shining in they're 2 x £25 BluRay range.
I did'nt get a good look as i was in the queue but Resi Evil 2 & 3 were also visible along side a few superhero films like Wolverine , and I could also see the Bond films Casino Royale and Quantaum of Solace. (forgive spelling)

They also have a selection at £10 including Day of the Dead Remake.

yeah, i really want to see it soon!

Yeah - me too! :pop2:

AFAIK, the longer version was only shown once while Kubrick was alive (ITV 1991), and I've read that he was not best pleased by the ITV broadcast.

I may be wrong, but I think Japan got the long version on laserdisc in 1996. Also, the Australian blu ray is now the long version, but I suspect Warners (or Leon Vitali) have acted against SK's wishes here. I'm just glad the shorter version didn't disappear after his death - some people prefer it.

It's a strange thing, though - people often mention that Kubrick prefered the international cut, but I've never read a quote or interview to back this up. :confused:

Recieved the Rambo trilogy from Japan the other day and gave them a spin over the last few days.Bought them for the extras which are missing from the UK and US discs and for the artwork.The individual cases come in a nice sturdy box that also has space to slip the latest Rambo film in as well (although I din'nt realise it at first.I thought it was strange that they would make the box too big and slip a white piece of carboard in the space lol.All the films look really good even if someone has went into overdrive with the DNR on First Blood.Unfortunately RAMBO III doesnt have english subtitles during the Russian dialogue and First Blood doen't have the Sylvester Stallone Commentary that is on The U.S. disc so I put the region A discs that I already owned in the cases with the Japanese discs and I was all set to go :)

Hopefully,these will arrive this week.....:cool:

today i won on ebay

Was it the boxset you ordered or the individual ones? if it was the box you'll have to let us know what the packaging is like.

Great set that. :cool: I used to have this, but have the BU coffin set now. Definitely worth £12. :nod:

Nice one loops - how's you X-Rated collection going now? :poke: :)

That be number 12.

looks good, ive never seen any of them!

Allrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiggggghhht!

I haven't bought any for a while... tbh I can't think of any more that I want at the moment! :faint:

There is loads that i want but they are either really hard to find or unbelivably expensive.

You're (hopefully :lol:) in for a treat then mate. Night of the Seagulls is my personal favourite... very creepy and atmospheric, but not the most popular top choice of the four. I don't know if you've had a proper look yet, but it comes with a great bonus documentary disc on Amando de Ossorio. :cool: :nod:

Thanks for the info BS. :cool:

I'm all spent up at the mo though what with christmas and all... I've spent way too much on presents this year. Next year everyone's getting socks. Bah, Humbug! :mad2: :jest:

Night of the Seagulls is my fave too.

I dont think much of the others though.

The first film is cut.

Anything in particular mate? I might have come across them on my random net-tacular travels...

Yep. Sexualised violence right?

That's one of the reasons why I bought the coffin - that and the fact that it is a coffin. :woot:

Cheers! I'll pm yer!

Yes.

I've never seen the uncut version. I have the old AB double feature but i cant be bothered watching it.

I don't think I even noticed the differences when I watched the uncut version. I think the cuts total a few seconds... checks bbfc website :typing:.... 16 seconds of compulsory cuts. :chainsaw:

some guy came into blockbuster today and wanted to trade a ton of dvd's in, we scanned them all and all he got was £20.00, two of the films were only £1.75
and as he wanted cash i offered him £5.00 for both so here are my bargains for the day.......

Drag me to Hell
Knowing

both five quid and in mint condition. also picked up the Exorcist Anthology brand new from blockbuster....anyone who hasn't got it, get it because it's only £11.96 for 5 movies.

peace out :rockon:

Just won this on e-bay:

Great cover! :cool: That's OOP now isn't it?

I'm not sure.

I think most of those R1 Hammer Collection releases are OOP. Some of them go for crazy money: I'm sure I saw Scars of Dracula go for about $40 once... :ack:

Yes, 16 secs of dress ripping and breast caressing during the rape scene in the graveyard. You're not missing anything really. The cuts are very well done and the film works better without it.

thats good news, i was worried i was going to be missing out on something :thumb:

i got in contact with the guy who runs abortion bin productions and hes sending me a copy of his film black ice and also a screener of his film tapeworm which will be released in march 2010
