Yes. I have the BU release and there's a disclaimer before the film begins regarding the German sequences.

I'm glad they added them. It would be a fairly poor film sleaze wise without them.

This is the interesting aspect for me, what with the films being treated in a rather elastic manner by all and sundry.
After years of "the final cut" being somewhat sacrosanct territory etc.

To be blunt, I have found myself watching various genres of films recently, and have wondered every time... "What would Jess have done to this material??"

Which I think is a decent enough legacy in itself.

Sounds like a thread in it's own right.

The Witch (2016) - 1/5

Relentlessly dreary and boring, I really struggled to sit through this one. Anyone on here seen it? I'd be interested to hear your thoughts, I know it's generally highly regarded. At the end of the film when I said to my friend 'I thought that was garbage', a guy on the row in front of me turned round and we had a nice little film discussion, he compared it to Wild Strawberries but I couldn't see that and said maybe Hour of the Wolf and Cries & Whispers would be more applicable

This is from the same guy that is supposedly remaking Nosferatu.

I'm looking forward to The Witch.

Mark Kermode really liked it.

My mum used to use a kermode.

Chloe's mum, who is disabled, refuses to use a commode, because "it is demeaning"!

My mum loved the damn thing.
