Yeah and bitch and moan to Paramount for Four Flies... it's that kind of epic time wasting that shortens your life when you're trying to find stuff to release because films like that are of no consequence to studios that size. If they were MGM would sell me the Cannon library for 10p and I could really have some fun!

Yes it's frustrating when the majors act like this. I think everyone has bitched to Paramount about an uncut My Bloody Valentine but they simply don't appear interested. I'm not sure about the original Anthropophagous: The Beast though, as Hollywood released the heavily edited version (The Grim Reaper) a while back. Do MGM also hold the rights to this one too? |

I'm sure MGM will not be happy to learn about 'certain' aspects of D'Amato's filmography... the whole jerking off horses thing appeared too often for comfort! lol And that's his regular movies... I love to see their reaction when they learn he was a full fledged pornographer I can see the rights no longer being wanted. *crosses fingers* |

The problem is that majors don't want to spend time looking at these things as it costs them money, is a hassle, no one would pay them lots of money for the rights and they've got to look into each thing from a legal standpoint. It's a bit of a Catch 22 and I'd never bother because I've seen other people tear their hair out over such things and they know what they're doing! The only hope is that every now and again you might get a fan working for a major but the mindset has to be totally different to work there - it's a numbers game ruled by accountants and marketeers.
