This thriller from Lucio Fulci (Perversion Story, The Eroticist) is acclaimed as a masterpiece of the Italian giallo thriller genre and its psychedelic Ennio Morricone score ranks among the best of il maestro’s work. Presented fully uncut.
Carol Hammond (Florinda Bolkan,) is a sophisticated politician’s daughter who experiences a series of vivid, psychedelic nightmares drenched in depraved sex orgies and LSD. The dreams culminate in a nightmare featuring the death of her neighbour, Julia Dürer (Anita Strindberg, The Eroticist). The next day Julia is found brutally murdered in her own apartment.The investigation, conducted by Inspector Corvin (Stanley Baker, The Guns of Navarrone, Zulu), leads to Carol’s arrest, however she is released after a mysterious man confesses to Scotland Yard that he is the murderer. Not convinced of Carol’s innocence, Corvin continues to investigate the murder and unearths new disturbing clues … Did Carol really do it or is she being framed? Where do her dreams end and reality begin?

Their omission of the blue tint in the climatic sequence is clearly an error. It's on the shitty Dark Force transferred from a print version which proves it was and should have been there. It's also on every other version I've seen. Unless they clandestinely fix it (which would be a fuck you to the people who bought the limited versions).

Got to say, I do miss the deep blue colouring of the finale of City of the Living Dead on the new UHD (especially surprising as most UHDs go out of their way to show off the HDR). I have no idea how authentic the colouring was on the Arrow versions, but I liked it. Disc is by far the best I've seen it looking though.

Ironic to see this popping up just a few months after I finally managed to ditch my old, severely cut, UK VHS copy of 'The Beyond', having failed for years to persuade anyone to take it off my hands. (Now that, truly, was a useless artefact, even to the most determined VHS fetishists out there..)
