    Must have been pretty traumatic though. Not that I'm a great cat lover when they shit in my garden and stalk the birds that I feed!

      No it didn't.
      Why would anybody watch a scum show like Videodrome? Why did you watch it, Max?

        He also used a real child actor for a rape scene in BLACK SUN. I don't remember how far the scene goes, but I do recall the girl being roughed up and having her nightgown torn off and you see her bare chest.

            Full disclosure: I've only watched the scene once and I've never gone back and studied it. You may be right - that it was faked - but we'll never really know the truth and this debate will continue for as long as people are discussing this film.

                Looks like it'll be 4K UHD release judging by the spine.

                  Well that (UHD) was certainly unexpected.

                    It's...certainly a decision. Yep.

                      Very nice. I'm just curious about the extra's. It's a golden opportunity to have a commentary from a historian.

                        German Blu-ray release coming soon.

                        I'll wait for the MV UHD myself but some in Europe might find that helpful.

                          Amazing that this will be UHD(!) A no-hesitation purchase for me.

                            From the latest MV newsletter:

                            "MEN BEHIND THE SUN is also coming closer to completion. Our extensive 4k restoration has been underway for some time and, once completed, it will be moving to the color correction stage, and finally into UHD authoring. The OCN (original camera negatives) were scanned in 4k at a Hong Kong lab, which heavily delayed the scan due to Covid lockdowns, luckily we were allowed to finish the restoration here in the States."

                              Can't wait. Been too long waiting for this, but kudos to Massacre for getting behind this masterpiece.

                                Panorama are releasing a blu of this in HK on Friday. I don't know if it's from the same scan or if it's a shitty upscale. They had been doing quite well with proper HD releases, but supposedly some of their recent stuff have been upscales.
