Giallo A Venezia (Merged)

I have a hard time understanding why, for instance, Camera Obscura wouldn't have released this by now? It's like right up their alley.

I heard a German or Austrian release is in the works, I don't know from which label though.

Good to hear, Daniel! Do you by any chance know what label is releasing it, and if it will have english language options/subs?

Thank god. Just give me decent English subs.

I just took a look at a torrent I have that says "Spanish VHS". It's 91 minutes & some odd seconds; quality is decent (better than I expected it to look). Skipping through it, I landed on a lot of sex and nudity but nothing hardcore and the one scene of violence: tied down nude & leg is sawed on. I'll wait to watch it fully if/when the blu is released. Is there more gore/violence than that one infamous scene?

I mentioned it early in the thread but there is a scene where a hooker is stabbed in the cunt. The shitty quality of the prints don't do this scene much in the way of favors.

Yes, seeing this in HD is going to be a revelation after years of shitty bootlegs.

I don't even care if it's DNR'd to hell and back, I will celebrate the day I have this in decent quality on my screen. With my pants off, naturally.

I will believe it when I see it. That goes for all of Bill's announcements.

A couple other bits, don't wanna spoil anything tho :)

91 min is the Italian version
99 min is the Portuguese tape

Code Red will release the 91 min Italian.

So the german BD is the full 99 min but the Code Red is not, why?

If this is indeed the fact, I'm guessing they'll add the missing bits with VHS inserts. Or maybe, if CR really go back to the OCR, everything will be there intact?

I hope you can watch the film with the option to skip the pornier inserts. As I said, I'm not a fan of the extended softcore scenes.

I'm assuming this will be a blu-ray and Code Red will never insert anything from video. Never done this in the past and doubt they ever will in the future since he claims it would look like hell. Also, they will use whatever is sent to them from the rights holder. Anything added by other countries will not be there because it will not be on the master (print, negative or hard drive).

So is the 99 minute version the fully uncut film with everything shot by the director then cut out or does the 99 minute version have extra footage added by the distributor & not shot by the director?

It seems odd that it's a Portuguese tape that has everything; I'd think they'd censor movies down there. Guess not!
