Soho Sq - intelligent?
I think they will see the film as an exploitation film
I know stranger things have happened and films have been passed uncut but it's because of the BBFC and their countless rules and regulations, e.g.
when the virgin girl is slashed and heavily cut of course
I cannot see this scene uncut (pardon the pun)
Once again the BBFC do have a tendency to contradict themselves with their laws
I honestly. really hope the film is uncut................

With Daemonias last post, everything's been said. Let's wait and see.

Looking forward to this release too! Even though I already have the EC Entertainment edition of it. It'll be nice to see it in the yellow, and the art work Shameless have planned for it.

On the interview on the SS disc Deodato say's that even he thought the script was too violent.

Some spoilers ahead, so stop reading now if you've not seen the film yet....

Anyway, the crux of the matter is this: aside from the rape at the start, is there any other rape in the film? Knowing the ending, and that Alex has been set up, can we still call what went before rape? Or was it seduction under the pretence of rape in order to keep up the illusion? What is it exactly? The lines are blurred, but the ending implies that everything they went through was by consent, so that they'd have a legitimate and lawful reason for executing Alex. So is it rape? Or is it role play? It's not entirely clear - and I think this is the problem the BBFC will have with it. The Cindy scene is unexpected, as the participants in the set up hadn't expected her to call by. But with a gun so easily to hand, they could have stopped Alex in his tracks there and then, but chose not to. Cindy is like a sacrificial lamb, which makes the participants in the set up as unconscienable as Alex. Again, another tricky element.

So...I guess we'll just have to wait and see what the BBFC say. That's all we can do at this point.

Excellent Post Daemonia.
Still not convinced that much thought went into it mind.

The trailer with the catchy "Do it to me once more!" disco number does a good job of that!

The cuts should be reduced considerably,but I would be ASTOUNDED if the BBFC passed it unscathed.
