The Italian film is Island of the Fishmen.

Yeah. I have that and the sequel fish men and their queen. The Mya release got some stick for being the italian PG cut with minimal violence but I enjoyed it.

Indeed. The original 'Fishmen' was a PG adventure film. Corman added more of the red stuff to cater more for the horror/exploitation market and re-titled it as 'Screamers'.

I'd forgotten it was available. I'd always hoped for it to be released and held off buying Fishmen.

So these two came in today :dance:

Ordered them both from BIOH when there was a sale, they both arroved undamaged (not a dent in Videodrome) as this is my first Criterion buy it calls for a small celebration! :woot: the biggest joke of 'em all is: I don't have a region free player (yet) :lol: But absolutely no regrets whatsoever!

The only question remains: Should I unpack them, or wait for the glorious day when there is a region free blu ray player in the house and then unpack them like crazy?

I'd unwrap them and read the booklets.

Well seeing that it is a Criterion release, it is definitely the uncut version. (Highly recommend this one, region A though) The sale is now over at BIOH but I paid around £14 (shipping included) if you head over to the B&N sale you might get the same price

Picked both of these up for £5, neither have particularly great PQ but fancied a watch.
Haven't seen Trick since it originally came out on VHS,remember liking it at the time. Intruder i've never got round to watching but have been meaning to for a long time.:)
