I understand the production history and I have to say I rather liked Delirium. It certainly has a seventies style and some of the deaths are suitably gruesome in a HG Lewis way.

What was most shocking though was the amount of library music I've only previously heard on Prisoner: Cell Block H!!

I'm sold on this now, HG Lewis and John Waters and Prisoner Cell Block H haha yes please

It's now on my Maybe list currently I think, I agree the package looks good, the slip case is certainly lurid and colourful I saw it in HMV yesterday but I picked up Night of the Demon, another film that I've never seen and don't own so I picked it up, not expecting much though to be fair, that one was £17.99 but it does have 2 films and a feature length doc (which I unfortunately also have on the Censor blu-ray from last month), the David Gregory video nasty doc.

What is the second film on Night of the Demon?

I'll probably order that this week or next

It's called Fraternity of Horror and it's a 1964 horror film made by the Night of the Demon producer Jim L Ball, never before released!?

Sold!

Unless it's a really poor quality looking film of course.

Just had a look, not good I'm afraid, obviously transferred from video and it's only presented in SD so it looks very rubbish. Another of those curiosities I'm afraid.

Night of the Demon on the other hand looks bloody fantastic, solid transfer from film.

I was going to get it anyway. The two part doc was a welcome addition which i haven't seen. I never owned those two Boxes of the Banned on dvd.

What's the poster reverse art, Justin?

You don't event want to know it's awful
I'll post a pic in a min.

Interestingly it uses the Severin cover art on the disc menu making me think it’s a direct port, exactly the same discs.
