Many thanks for putting my mind at rest, Almar - very much appreciated. In that case, I look forward to buying a copy of the disc.

One thing, though: You say the original Italian version was in...

That's possible, but it's ambiguous, to say the least! It would have been nice for someone associated with the release to confirm things one way or the other. But, for whatever reason, it doesn't...

So I guess we have to wait for the disc being released to find out whether a mono soundtrack is included.

Sorry, but listing it as 'Mono/Stereo' is no help at all...

Yes, but my enquiry was about the 'Mono/Stereo' notation. Which is it? Mono or stereo? That quote doesn't make it clear at all.

Still no answer to my query concerning the presence (or not) of mono soundtracks on the DEEP RED disc?

Don't know if this has been asked elsewhere (if so, apologies in advance), but could I ask for clarification on a small point of order?

The specs say the director's cut has English 'stereo/mono'...

Not only is it good news that DEEP RED will be released uncut, it's good news to have confirmation that the lizard WASN'T killed in such an appalling manner just for the sake of a film. It's one of...

I'll wait to hear the BBFC's reasoning behind the decision before making a final choice. I'm not so much 'disappointed' as 'mildly surprised'...

Good news - ZOMBIE FLESH-EATERS has been available uncut in the UK for quite some time now! Unless you mean an uncut Blu-ray version of the film? Man, I'd be first in the queue for that little...

Almar, I think it's clear the BBFC won't allow the lizard shot in DEEP RED, since it's rather less 'ambiguous' (and I look forward to hearing their reasons for waiving the cut to INFERNO).

But as...

Because it was (probably) engineered by the filmmakers themselves for the recording of a film. That's an absolutely crucial difference and one that the BBFC applies as part of its legal criteria.

I was wondering if, instead of cutting the scene, Arrow could either pixellate or otherwise obscure the offending shot? It still amounts to...

Yes, it is grotesque, but it still wasn't perpetrated for the sake of entertainment. And most of the atrocities were filmed by the liberators, not by the Nazis themselves. There is a WORLD of...

It's cruel in the sense that the mouse will hardly 'enjoy' being eaten alive. Nor will the salmon, for that matter. I'm not arguing that such things aren't the natural way of things, I'm arguing that...

I fully appreciate that impulse, and I have to admit, if the BBFC decides to press ahead with the cut in INFERNO, they'll have to formulate a pretty good reason for it in the light of remarks made...
