Probably a stupid question that has been answered, but do they need a certification to release it in the UK?

A Night to Dismember hopefully.

I think it'll include her nudie cuties albeit I wonder if they'll include The Prince and the Nature Girl which has had an excellent English friendly German BD release that I doubt will be bettered.

Ah, okay. Wasn’t sure if they were allowed to release things without a certification there like in the states.

Vol 3 will be all the nudies. All that leaves after for the single release is night to dismember, satan was a lady remake, dildo heaven, or each time I kill. I'm guessing dildo heaven because they put out a lot of SOV stuff. it could really use an official release that doesn't have a watermark in the center of the screen the whole movie.

I don't think the German Blu-Ray would be a factor in whether they release it.

[Damonstein]

Well it helps that the german release had english subtitles and an english dub created for it that agfa can use since the print only had german audio

But I doubt AGFA would be able to come up with a similar amount of extras, to the German release, for any potential US release.

Basically what I mean is they would be unlikely to better the German release in terms of extras.

Has there been any word on when some more OOP titles are going to get rereleased? Really wanting to get the Zodiac Killer but don't want to pay ebay prices

Bat pus*y should be coming this year. Otherwise all they've said is that they want to do 3-4 rereleases a year.

News from a user on Criterionforum on a boxset coming next year:

Caught the 4K restoration of Terminal USA (distributed by AGFA) at Fantastic Fest and it was announced during the intro that they'll release a box set of Moritsugu's complete filmography in 2023.

This is MAJOR news. I almost bought a box set of Moritsugu’s work from his site just a few weeks ago. An amazing and singular talent

I’m such a sucker for these AGFA/Something Weird drive-in collections. I can’t get enough of them.

After 40 years, we've found the long-lost, original 16mm camera negative of EFFECTS.

Get ready for AGFA's first UHD release in 2023.

THE FILMS OF DORIS WISHMAN: THE DAYLIGHT YEARS [Official Trailer - AGFA] - YouTube

The German BD release of The Prince & the Nature Girl is superior, especially in the extras department.

Given the fact that this set includes 5 additional films, I'm gonna give the edge to this release.

I was ignoring that fact for obvious reasons & this is the case of owning BOTH versions being a good thing. Also the German release includes Girls in the Sauna (short) as a supporting film as well as loads of extras including the 97 min documentary Better Than Sex! Or: How to Make a Wishman Movie.

I need to stop coming here. Now I need to somehow own both.

You know what this means, don't you fatboyslim?

I love you and I hate you at the same time.
