Of course it is after I bought the regular copy a few months back lol. Either way great news & it'll be a day 1 buy for sure.

NO ****IN' WAY!

Feel bad for all those those who just plunked down the big bucks for the German Mediabook. I almost did myself.

So, is the uncut version that much different than the theatrical cut?

theclickclackman · 01-14-2016, 03:07 AM

This is SO cool! I guess we can toss the MGM Blu-Ray in the garbage.

Probably contains more violence and the deleted scenes from the Greek VHS tape.

They talk about this movie in "Electric Boogaloo: The Wild Untold Story of Cannon Films" (which NEEDS a BD release BTW). Turns out Michael Winner's a pretty creepy dude.

Awesome news! Now, bring on Death Wish III with some awesome bonus features!

That is an absolutely great doc. It's streaming on Netflix now and has a German BD release. Hopefully it gets a US release soon.

it was a fantastic documentary. I reviewed the doc for Warner on DVD when it came out and LOVED it. such craziness that went on with that studio. In fact I reviewed Bolero the other day from SHOUT... forgot just how awful that movie was, and the little tidbits of behind the scenes info made it a much more informative viewing.

In terms of the sexual violence, yes. Both rape scenes are longer and much more graphic.

rickah88 · 01-14-2016, 04:15 AM

Great news!

LordCrumb · 01-14-2016, 04:19 AM

As was I. Though I am still considering it, because I always like to have a region B back up.

Amazing! Now I don't have to pick up the Austrian Mediabook.

evilive · 01-14-2016, 06:52 AM

Hahahaha, I just got an individual copy of DW2 because the one the Bronson 3 movie pack wouldn't play on my ps3. So I have two copies of DW2 that won't play on my ps3

Regardless, I'll triple dip.

Basically turning them into sicko sexploitation scenes from what I understand. I have read that Bronson was greatly angered by this cut.

I saw it on cable a while back. No need to see that again so I'll pass.

StingingVelvet · 01-14-2016, 09:52 AM

Interesting. I have the three-pack but have never seen the uncut version, so will probably double-dip.
