I've heard some great things about the transfer for Braveheart so It's definately on my to buy list :nod: And I'd like to know how the Optimum Evil Dead 2 looks too,if it's better than Anchor Bay's disc,which I own and looks like someone has thrown a layer of frozen grain over the whole picture :eek:

The previous BBFC cut has been waived for the Braveheart release. :cool:

The scene in question has always made me uneasy.Funny that,with all the violence if seen in films,but there's just some things that i dont like seeing.

Yes throat slashings were never popular with Mr Ferman. Especially for a 15. Surprising that much of the later violence in the film was left intact.

I have it and am not overly impressed with the picture or audio quality.

Watched the remake of One Missed Call on Blu Ray last night, after picking it up for £4.50 in W H Smiths. Not exactly a classic but I kind of enjoyed it. The Blu Ray transfer was flawless but the disc was bare bones.

I'll just stick with my Anchor Bay disc I think :nod:

I quite enjoyed One Missed Call too.Definately nowhere near the best horror remake out there but at least the phone ringtone in this one was a little better than the original IMO :lol:

It's almost laughably noise reduced. Ash and co are now wax.

The Anchor Bay THX dvd is much better.

Thanks for the replies - I'll avoid all current Blu-ray's of Evil Dead 2 then. I'm sure there'll be a decent remaster down the line.

I just picked up a couple of films in HMV

I got the Dragon Dynasty version of King Boxer and a film that I had to buy once I saw the title Teenage Hooker Becomes a Killing Machine a Korean revenge film that aparantly has shades of Tetsuo and Eraserhead. Should be an interesting watch
