BBFC Watch: Upcoming Titles

[c4uk]

Can't wait to see what extras will be on the Serbian film blu ray
During the limited cinema release, you should video peoples reactions and thoughts and put it as an extra on the dvd/blu ray

Uncut dvd release in the USA should be in February 2011!

Which will mean import money goes to US distributor instead of our Revolver.

Same here!

From what I've heard, the US won't be uncut, but we'll see - that may well have changed for all I know.

Capthowdy - where did you see that news?

I had heard the US distributors were planning to self-censor the film for their theatrical release...

[rawshark]

Ah - I see, it's here;

Well, to be fair, it only mentions the theatrical release for Feb 2011, not the DVD which I expect will be later. And it's one thing for a distributor to say they plan to release it uncut and another thing for them to actually go ahead and do it..

[capthowdy66]

It was on Dread Central, a cut r release into general cinemas and then uncut in 'Arthouse' cinemas and DVD.

I have to be honest I will buy the cut version to support Revolver for releasing such an important film and likely source an uncut from abroad.

Meanwhile, back at the BBFC's Old B-Movie Department:

THE PHANTOM FROM 10,000 LEAGUES (PG, formerly a cinema A in 1956)
THE MONSTER MAKER (PG, formerly a cinema X in 1954)
THE MONSTER WALKS (PG, rejected in 1932!)
HORRORS OF SPIDER ISLAND (12, rejected in 1960!)

BBFC cut the (once banned) Aussie comedy FANTASM by 8m. Mainly for sexual violence. The cuts are twice as heavy as Serbian.

[Axe]

Bare Behind Bars (previously banned) now passed with only 1m.35s of cuts.

[Satans Puppy]

I noticed the Special features for Machete had been passed uncut Wooo Love that film, go see it at the cinema!!

Dragging the thread kicking and screaming into 2011:

WOULD YOU KILL A CHILD? passed "uncut" at 18 for DVD:

I saw the Devil passed uncut

Enter the Ninja passed with over a minutes of cuts

http://www.bbfc.co.uk/CVF029511

Good news though for fans of Revenge of the Ninja as the previous 6 minutes of cuts have been waived

I'm eager to see what their decision on Requiem for a Vampire will be.
