I've never seen this but it looks ridiculously hilarious.

It is.

It is a lot of fun. I don't have any burning desire to revisit it but it is a real curio.

Umbrella covers are so horrendous, it's a real shame. They could do so much better for this movie. Same with Showgirls. The 'small square surrounded by solid color' design needs to go.

If 88 got it, which one can't rule out I guess since Fortune Star licensed it out to Umbrella which I never imagined it would get this title, it would've got the well-designed cover art like Erotic Ghost Story did from KungFuBob.

It's like their covers for the three original TMNT movies. Each cover had the same Turtles appearance from movie III instead of having each movie's unique look.

Don't mind the design at all. It's the colours that turn me off and cheapen the look.

Question is: Will this be a new 2k (or even 4k) restoration or an upscale?

[Jompa]

My HK BD looks good, but it is upscaled to 1080p

Would be grateful if someone could confirm that this release is Region B locked?

I just played this blu ray and much like their Childs play (1988) blu ray, it looks absolutely horrible.
as for sex and zen:
its not restored
blurry as hell
upscaled to 1080
and is now officially the WORST blu ray picture quality I have ever seen.
Umbrella needs to step up their game and stop selling people cash grabs.

@moovimn: I'm in the U.S. and recently imported this from Umbrella. I only have a Region 'A' player and it plays just fine, despite indicating Region 'B' on the back. No issues at all with playback.
