Yeah, the Italian one is a cracker! I also like the one where Michael Berryman's has a green face and red eyes. Where's that one from?

The announcement for Hills on Facebook has over 1100 likes. How many of the limited edition set do you think they'll release? Think it'll sell out?

THE LUCKY ONES DIED FIRST…

Horror master Wes Craven achieved critical and commercial success with the likes of Scream and A Nightmare on Elm Street – but for many genre fans, the director’s seminal 1977 effort The Hills Have Eyes remains his masterpiece.

Taking a detour whilst on route to Los Angeles, the Carter family run into trouble when their campervan breaks down in the middle of the desert. Stranded, the family find themselves at the mercy of a group of monstrous cannibals lurking in the surrounding hills. With their lives under threat, the Carters are forced to fight back by any means necessary.

As gruelling a viewing experience today as it was upon initial release, The Hills Have Eyes stands alongside the likes of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Night of the Living Dead as one of the defining moments in American horror cinema.

An uncut version of the excellent documentary, The American Nightmare, would be most welcome on the extras as the version on the UK Anchor Bay DVD was edited because it contained banned footage from Last House on the Left.

Same thing would happen if Arrow were to include it as an extra.

I doubt it, Last House was passed uncut in 2008.

Plus, I'm pretty sure that the 'Video Nasties: censorship and moral panic' documentary managed to get some banned footage inside their film using the argument that it was only being shown as a reference point and it wasn't in the context of a storyline.

But the use of clips being shown out of context was the main 'arguement' that the DPP came up with during the original 'nasties' scare - methods that the BBFC used to qualify the banning of films under the VRA (Video Recording Act) of 1984. They put together a showcase of 'gore' scenes from various films and basically screened this for media folk for shock value. It was a tactic so clever that it momentarily convinced die-hard horror fans that censorship was essential. But as the clips were out of context it was a sly move. Think on it … if somebody showed you just the clips of the severed arm, decapitated head, and Quint’s death from “Jaws” (1975) and nothing else … what kind of film would you think it was?

True, true. They spoke about that in the aforementioned documentary. The fella says he was there for the screening of a load of horrifying little clips only for James Ferman to stand up and tell his audience "...and now I'll show you the uncensored clips..." A clever strategy!
