Upcoming UK DVD Thread

[Pete]

EMANUELLE IN AMERICA went through the BBFC today and, unsurprisingly, it was cut:

To obtain this category cuts of 4m 31s were required

Company chose to make cuts to four sequences to remove sight of unsimulated sexual detail (fellatio, vaginal penetration, masturbation, ejaculation) in order to obtain an '18' classification. Cuts made in accordance with BBFC Guidelines and policy. An 'R18' classification without these cuts would have been available. In addition, company was required to make compulsory cuts to a scene of bestiality (unsimulated sight of a naked woman masturbating a horse), in accordance with BBFC Guidelines, policy and current interpretation of the Obscene Publications Act 1959. Company was also required to make compulsory cuts to four sequences of sadistic and sexual violence (naked women being humiliated, tortured, raped, branded, strangled, mutilated, and being violently penetrated with spiked objects, poles and metal hooks). Cuts required in accordance with BBFC Guidelines, policy and the Video Recordings Act 1984.

Over 4mins of cuts? Studio Canal have wasted money on this. Frankly, only a moron would buy it.

According to Amazon its R1 though, I guess that's an error then.

Amazon aren't reliable at all when it comes to stating Region 1 releases. They seem to have all of BU's dvds down as Region 1.

The BU release is definitely R0 and looks gorgeous.

ALL my Blue Underground dvds are R0 including Emanuelle In America,Deathdream,The Silent Flute,Mountain Of The Cannibal God & Fast Company among others.Amazon also list the CODE RED releases as R1 but most if not all are R0.

You're not wrong there and i agree it's an absolute waste when U.K. labels take such senseless action with titles suffering heavy censorial interference. Pathetic and pointless imo.
