Solange would be lovely, I've only watched the Shriek Show dvd once because it's stuck in my mind so well. Seven Blood Stained Orchids would be a great addition, altough Seven Notes in Black is crying out for a HD release.

I honestly have no idea, but you're welcome to get the electrodes out!

It's being released by '84 Entertainment. It's English friendly. I have pre-ordered it. Haven't found any reviews yet, just a couple of comments on facebook that it looks good. And the German subs are optional.

Just a heads up for everyone. The 88 Films blu-ray and dvd of The Toxic Avenger Part II contains the Japanese cut of the movie, which is longer than the unrated US director's cut.

As the main feature Stephen?

Japanese cut as in the Directors cut?

The Directors cut runtime is the same as the blu ray and is the Unrated version with the extra 10 minutes.

I got confused because the Japanese cut on the last Toxic Avenger blu ray was a tape master with Japanese intro and actual Japanese burnt in subs.

Yeah that's it. With the extra 10mins, including the japanese radio station scene. Had to say japanese cut since the original US director's cut was shorter.

Really? I didn't know the directors cut label was on the shorter version!

Looking at movie-censorship, it's fair to say the short versions loses fairly much everything

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's the version on the DVD (which I bought from 88 Films at Manchester) as well.

If memory serves, the dvd in the Toxic Avenger collection was the US unrated cut (labelled as the DC, probably wrongly), missing the extra footage from the DC here.
