However, I'd also like to hear from someone who's seen it to know if it's worth £5.99.

Just looked and it's part of a trilogy. All 3 parts are only £5.99 each too.

I read the bit about the trilogy but didn't check to see if they were available and, if so, how much they cost. Less than £18 for all three seems pretty good as long as the films are good and have lasting value.

I've seen it and got it - it's part of Pasolini's Trilogy of Life. I think it's pretty good - it's divided up into several stories, some are better than others; lots of grotesque situations and figures. The first segment is gross, but pretty funny. But it's a film that the more I rewatch, the less I like it.

The next one is the Canterbury Tales, which is generally regarded as the weakest. I would have agreed with that the first time I watched it; but on several rewatches, I've actually preferred it to the Decameron. Again some stories are better than others. Lots of bawdy humour and flatulence - it also features an appearance by Tom Baker, who shows more than perhaps you would like. Robin Askwith also pops up.

The final is the Arabian Nights - generally regarded as the best, which I totally agree with. I really love this one. If this is going for £5.99, I would advise getting this one.

Thanks for the description of the trilogy -- looks like a trip to Play.com is in order!

Nice find, I just picked up the Terminator Salvation T-600 Skull for only £22.99. Result! I almost bought it when it first came out for about £70 or something.

I picked up half a dozen things and was tempted by Se7en, but then realised they jacked up the price by £1 to put it in the sale -- it was £7.99 previously and is still that price at Amazon!

Yeah I saw that I was looking at Greezone SB but waited and got it for 8.99 euros.
