I Love it when distributers add related movies to there releases, BFI do it best (not uncommenly placing 3 extra films onto the disk/s) and luckely Arrow are taking quick suit. Shameless, Eureka, take note. |

Vipco used to pull the trick of including 18 rated trailers on their discs so that even if the film is rated 15 (as in the case of Shock Waves, which was an A and then a 15, strangely) the cover would have to have an 18 rated certificate. Vipco seemed to believe that only 18 rated films sell. It's a dirty trick, but then nothing was beneath Mike Lee in his pursuit of fleecing horror fans. :lol: |
Shameless do that same trick now of cause. I believe trailers should be exempt from classification. Common sense would be obviese if your showing them before a film (If you go to see a nice Pixar film maybe it's not a good idea to show a trailer for, say, Terminater) and this would mean that if a distributer wishes to put them on a release then fine and it will have no effect on the over all certification of the release. Either that or place trailers of the same certification (even if the film has a higher one) on the disk, meaning there is no increase in certification (eg. the Shameless Trailer for Cannibal Holocaust is 15, so if they had placed that on the BD of Four Flies on grey velvet it would have remaned a 15, but as there is a 18 certified trailer for The New York Ripper also on the disk the over all rating increases. It's all very ilogical. :rolleyes: |

There is a chapter at the back of the excellent Ten Years Of Terror book from FAB Press, which details a lot of these short UK films from the 70s, many of which have a thriller / murder / ghost or horror theme. One of them ( The Last Chapter ) has already been included on the BFI's BD of Private Road, so maybe more of these could see the light of day? |
I wish someone would release Blood and Black Lace on BD with The Girl Who Knew to Much as an extra. One for Shameless? :rockon: |
