Found a few odds and ends in a dodgy 'factory clearance' shop so picked up the following (all for the total of a fiver :thumb:)..

Toxic Avenger (the cut UK edition unfortunately :rolleyes:)
Maniac Cop 3: Badge of Silence
Class of 1999 II: The Subsitute
Once Upon A time in the West de Agostino Single disc
Wes Craven Presents Dont Look Down

Annoyingly all UK releases of this have been heavily pre-edited. Peculiarly the second Prism DVD featured a print that was more heavily cut than the previous one (ie the old VHS version). The BBFC would have no problems at all with it. :ohwell:

Part II was the only one ever (ridiculously) cut by the BBFC and is now restored intact.

Where did you get it and how much did it cost Bizarre?

GREAT MOVIE!

Terrible Commentary!

I wish when HKL was doing their magazine/DVD Combo they wouyld of done a CGS Issue.

Nice Haul and even nicer price:happy:

I would say Bargain of the week so far, I would have payed £5 alone for maniac cop 3 just to make up my m/cop collection lol

Well done matey :thumb:

just ordered this, really looking forward to it:rockon:

Yep, I'm really looking forward to getting this one too, alex. :nod:

Got it for £50 inc. postage off eBay mate. :biggrin:

The seller I bought it from is very quick and very reliable, so I'm hoping it will be waiting for me when I get home! :thumb:

I probably could of got it slightly cheaper if I'd shopped around but I wanted it now, dammit! ;)

I may splash out :) Still waiting on my Blind Dead set from ebay.It was posted 1st class recorded on 30th of january :eek: The Royal mail website says it's still not been delivered yet.Nearly 2 weeks to come from england to scotland 1st class? They're having a laugh.Oh well,maybe tomorrow!

Met Loops today and readed a couple of things for The Eye and Blood Feast...then to the bargain shops where PoundWorld yielded I Am A Camera (on a label amusingly called "Wienerworld Classic" :lol:), a double sided cheapie of The Independent/Wet Hot American Summer (yes, I have a thing for Janeane Garofalo, OK?), Mystery Men and The New Guy.

They also had the 2 disc edition on Contender of Crying Fist which I thought I'd put in the basket, but obviously didn't :( . Might nip back in tomorrow!


When I got home the postie had delivered The Orphanage, The Tomb Of Ligiea and Masque Of The Red Death!

Nightmare Concert (Cat in the brain) - Shock DVD/Studio (Dutch/Eng Lang)

I ordered an ozploitation, carsploitation film yesterday - 1982's Running On Empty - it looks pretty good, and those cars are just incredible!

Also got Repo: The Genetic Opera! - in all honesty I didn't think too much of this at all when I saw this for the first time not to long ago. But since I need it for uni, I'm hoping maybe a second viewing will change my mind. I'm hoping! :laugh:

Got all of these today as birthday presents (my birthday was weeks ago!)...
Videodrome 89 Minute Unrated Version (Universal,R1)
Jess Franco Collection 2 (AB UK,R2)
Pitch Black unrated director's cut (Universal,R1)
Stimme des todes aka Watch Me When I Kill (X-Rated,R2)
The Isle (Universe,R3)
Nazi Cult Collection (Video/Film Express,R2)
The Inglorious Bastards (DFW,R2)

Good buys.:thumb:
Marathon movie weekend then is it?

The picture on Downtown in the 2nd Franco box is terrible, taken from an old full screen VHS. All the other film's have excellent widescreen transfers though (although Downtown Heat is non-anamorphic), and are uncut.

Latest buys:

Attachment 4539 Attachment 4540

I already have other versions of ZFE but I liked the cover on this one.

Nice one Loops and thanks for the info!
Is there a better version of Downtown available that you know of?
Maybe the ABC dvd?

That's the Dragon ZFE dvd right?

The swiss ABC dvd is meant to be better. It's non-anamorphic widescreen and has some interviews.

Attachment 4541


Yes, that is the Dragon ZFE.

Just ordered The Broken... I'm told it's rubbish, but I'll watch any film starring Lena Headey.

Q. about Last House On The Left remake...
Does anyone know if there's any difference between the unrated US R1 DVD and the "extended cut" R2 DVD..? I noticed that BBFC site says it's uncut but just wondering if the UK version was pre-cut before submission to BBFC.

Thanks Loops,I'll check that one out.

Think they're the same. Certainly no BBFC cuts. The UK cinema version was the R-rated US version.

Differences between the unrated & R-rated versions here.

None.
Spent too much in the last 2 weeks.:(

That's me until next week.:biggrin:

Thanks for this...
Looks like LHOTL import DVD is cheapest.

just ordered these of amazon...

See No Evil (aka Blind Terror) 1971 - 98p NEW
Sisters (De Palmer) - 1.49 NEW
The Terror Within (corman) - 1.00 USED
Hatchet For the Honeymoon (ABUK) - 96p NEW
Outland (connery) - 1.53 USED
HOUSE: spec edition (ABUK) - 1.40

all of these including Postage of 1.24 each cost me 14.80...good haul me thinks

I believe there are both Canadian and American BR editions of the original and best Black Christmas.
Can any kind soul here tell me which is the superior release to go for in terms of PQ and extras?:confused:

Any info on region compatibility would be appreciated also.:)

I agree, that's as good as The Children.

THE SIGNAL is a low-budget sci-fi 'zombie' anthology with some technical faults and it lacks the intelligence of Videodrome or the surrealist imagination of Kairo, but it's a vicious, gripping, psycho chiller and a must–see for any fans of those films.

Hopefully your Hatchet for the Honeymoon will be the corrected dvd that includes the narration on the Bava doc.

Finally recieved my Blind Dead Collection from Ebay this morning.It only took Royal Mail 17 days to get it from england to scotland!

:clap::clap::clap::clap:

Now,go forth my son and tuck into one of the greatest horror series ever.:nod:

I enjoyed The Signal, except for the middle section in which the film decided it no longer wanted to be serious and became a comedy... then it decided it was going to be a serious horror film again! Bah. Damn good indie horror fun though, despite the huge flaw.

I picked up The Mist and Bejamin Button yesterday.

Why did Fincher do Benjamin?! Why?!

It was so droll!! It looked very nice indeed, but did he not bother reading the script? It's like Forest Gump 2!! Ha ha.

Ugh, hopefully he'll redeem himself with his next project... hopefully!

I had to re-watch Seven straight after to cool down!

Will do.I'll be giving Tombs a spin later tonight.:thumb:

Tombs is fantastic - hope you enjoy it Steve! :biggrin:

"Ride the High Country" - Peckinpah

"Jack Says"

"Jack Said"

"Porkys/Porkys' 2" - Upgrade from TV dupe.


"Werewolf of London" - Universal classic.

"Tony" - New Brit shocker about a serial killer.
No idea about it, but it looks good and UK horror cinema is on a fine roll at the moment.

"Grindhouse Trailer Classics 2"


DVD-R's of;


"I Start Counting" -
Amazingly obscure British sex killer on the loose thriller from 1969 starring an astonishingly young looking Jenny Agutter (just off "The Railway Children") Who even at 16/17 and playing a school girl was not afraid to strip down to her underwear.

Also stars Simon Ward ("Holocaust 2000"), Bryan Marshall ( "The Long Good Friday"), Lewis Fiander ("Could you Kill a Child"), Charles Lloyd Pack ("Frankenstein & the Monster from Hell").


"Corruption"/"Cash on Demand"

Two hard to find Peter Cushing movies ("Cash" is also a 'Hammer' film).
Sadly, despite the cover saying "Corruption" is uncut, it is in fact the slightly cut/less explicit British version of this unusually sleazy Cushing vehicle (under the "Corruption" title) not the stronger export version (actually known as "The Laser Killer") which is what I was hoping the print was taken from.
NUTS!

Oh well, not seen either of them, and "Corruption" should at least entertain even in this form.

I agree, saw this at cinema and loved it. If you didn't like the film then it still deserves merit for it's SFX. It's CGI raises the bar.

Looking forward to the Alien films on Blu-Ray definitely

It certainly does.While I was watching it,I thought that Brad's head (in old age makeup) had just been cgi'd onto the body of the actor playing the young Benjamin,which is amazing in itself but when I found out it was done using motion capture,I was in awe.
