I'd love to know if the Revenge of the Living Dead Girls is fully uncut.

I have the US dvd which is uncut and it's pretty graphic. Pete's screen grabs here show how graphic.

I hope it will be uncut, will be on my watchpile for next two days.

It appears to be uncut if the BBFC listing is anything to go by. From the length of the submission for Blu-ray it appears that the version of the film on the UK disc is the erotic rather than the horror cut.

Helpful hint time.
 

A couple of Cex exchanges.

The stickers were absolute nightmares to begin with, left so much sticky residue and paper on the plastic case. However a spray of WD40, leave for a few seconds, then rub off and they are like new.

I watched Casino for the first time earlier this year since I rented the VHS from Blockbuster in the late 90s! I loved it, fantastic movie!

I agree although i do tend to neglect it probably due to it's run time. I bet i've only seen it three times - Once at the cinema, once on vhs and once on dvd.

Sharon Stone helps you forget about the running time!

Trying to grab all of the Larraz blus. I think only Rest in Pieces is remaining from VS. I’ll order that next payday!

Turns out there are a couple of OOP ones from Dorado I’ll have to pretend they don’t exist lol…

Are they that bad Justin?

I don’t know I’ve never seen them but they’re out of print so eBay sellers only!

And bet they will knock the prices up a bit, good luck

A couple of film fanzines about British cult cinema including features on Corruption, Deep End and The Innocents among others.

I notice there's a chapter on Deadly Strangers. One of the great lost or unreleased British films. Have you seen it?

There's a decent vhs rip worth watching that's knocking about. I borrowed a bootleg dvd from a mate and loved it.

I haven’t no, I might be inclined to hunt it down after reading about it though!

I'm sure it would sell loads of copies of someone like Powerhouse or Network could get the rights to it.

It's a few years since i saw it and have forgotten what the issue is with it exactly.

Arrived from 101

That reminds me, I bought Toy Soldiers literally on release day and it's still on my "to watch" pile :lol: I mean I have seen it before which probably explains my lack of urgency while last night I re-watched Juno for like the 20th time :lol:

This weeks new arrivals. Six from Classic Films Direct and Operation Mincemeat from Asda.

OPERATION MINCEMEAT is excellent. I think you’ll enjoy it, Dem.

I enjoyed it too, it’s much better than the trailer makes out lol

Fantastic. :thankingyou: Going to watch it in an hour or so.

How much was Operation Mincemeat in Asda? I'd really like to see it and want to know what is a 'good' price for the Blu-ray release.

£15.

It's the same in Morrisons.

I take it THE LIVING DEAD GIRL is uncut Dem?
I've lost track of all these Black House releases and what's cut and uncut. Was there a thread?

I have absolutely no idea. What was there to cut? It's licensed from Salvation so maybe it's just a straight port of the US release.

Cex will give me an £8 voucher for it (I paid a fiver) so it's no great loss if it's cut and i'm not happy with it.

According to Melon Farmers it's uncut.

Great. Thanks Dem. I used to have the old Redemption VHS.

I do know that Schoolgirl Hitchhikers is cut but i just want to see the film as Rollin can be a bit hit and miss with me.

:thankingyou:

The UK Blu-ray of Schoolgirl Hitchhikers is fully uncut, even though it was supposed to be cut. Just don't tell anyone!

That's good to know, thanks.

Noted!

An Alistair Sim collection (The Green Man/ Folly To Be Wise/ Geordie/ Left Right & Centre/ Laughter In Paradise). UK dvd set. £2. :nod:

The only one of those i've seen is The Green Man. An excellent precursor to The Wicker Man....not really.

It's the one where Sim plays an assassin and he's a genius at it.

I saw Geordie years ago on tv and was happy when he appeared. Yes, TGM is the reason I bought it, though Laughter is worth a look certainly imho.
