Yes it was uncut (first time in the UK) but a pretty messy fullscreen print. I've never seen a good intact one either. Apart from their Black Emanuelle films and some westerns Strange Behaviour has been the only Optimum to suffer major cuts. They also got Cliffhanger, The Vampire Lovers and Fanny Hill through uncut too.

At least their Masque Of The Red Death, though not completely intact, was a darn sight better than that abysmal earlier fullscreen monstrosity.

Futureworld was an improvement over the previous ILC disc.

I would like to see Exterminator 2 as well as I have only seen the heavily cut Australian video.

I fully agree and it's because of this that i generally think twice before buying any Optimum releases.:mmph:

And their usually more expensive. HMV had Optimum's Dead & Buried disc for £16. While the ABUK 2 disc SE cost me £7 brand new.

I can't wait to get FRIGHT (1971) when they release that next year.I can knock the pricey US disc off my wishlist.

I didn't realise the US disc was selling for so much... :faint:

I bought Fright about 2 years ago from Amazon marketplace new and sealed for roughly £7 - it's now selling for over £20 used!
