Excellent news, they'll do a nice job with it. Glad I didn't order the German disc.

Amazon Uk has a listing for Shining sex, coming from Screenbound in Sept. I mean everyone should have the Severin release by now, but hats off to Screenbound for taking the risk with that.

Wil this have any extras or is it justa vanilla release? Either way the Severin release looks like the more definitive release of said film.

They need to sort out the colours, the overly pink skin and green teeth. Especially bad in the deleted hardcore section. That guy's dick looks like a stick of rhubarb. Not that that extra would ever get past the BBFC.

There's no way they'll be able to include the "Very NSFW Outtakes" from the Severin release due to the BBFC.

edit: agent999 beat me to that one

That's great news! I haven't seen either.

Both are actually really decent. Stylish and entertaining. The opening credits to Rififi are bloody fantastic! Grabbed them off Rarelust a year or two ago and was surprised by how enjoyable they were. Seems like they're cramming them onto one disc though. Definitely interested but will wait for disc reviews first.

Severin is spoiling us with the Franco this year. I had no idea they had these titles and I've never seen either. Looking forward to the DVD!

This out today and spotted in HMV, but there's no BBFC entry so I have no idea what state it's in.
