  • Exterminator 2 (Mark Buntzman, 1984) uncut DVD

    Apparently the new FSK-18 rated version of EXTERMINATOR 2, released on 20th November in Germany, is the uncut 'R' rated version of the movie (NB - not the more graphic workprint) - something that's been quite hard to come by. I think this is the first official release of the film on DVD too, isn't it?



    I've got an old bootleg copy of the Dutch VHS release, which I think is similarly uncut; I haven't seen the film in at least ten years, but it was a guilty pleasure of mine throughout the 1990s.

    Has anyone seen this disc yet?

    Have not seen it but am glad to hear it's the harder cut. I was going to pounce on this but then Shout! Factory announced it for next year so I'm going to wait it out.
    Rock! Shock! Pop!

      Didn't realise Shout! Factory had a US release in the pipeline, Ian. I may also wait for their release now.

            Have to ask the obvious question, is it uncut and what is the running time on this blu ray? Thanks

                    Just a matter of time till there's a US announcement. It's been playing on MGM HD for a while. I actually recorded it over the weekend, too.

                      I bought the UK Blu-ray release last week for the grand some of nine quid. Watching it right now (I've got the morning off work). Audio's a bit garbled but it's not a bad presentation. It's nice that the BBFC have finally let this one pass through unscathed.

                        Robert Ginty's performance in this is atrocious - his overacting during the botched surprise party for his crippled girlfriend is hilarious! Such a fun bad movie.
                        Why would anybody watch a scum show like Videodrome? Why did you watch it, Max?

                          Couldn't agree more, Matt. Ginty's especially awkward in the scenes in which he's supposed to be seductive with Carolyn. And he looks *really* uncomfortable during that sex scene.

                            Ugh, the UK Blu Ray looks like nothing more than an upscale using the same master as the region 1 dvd. and it lacks the commentary from that release. good thing i only paid a fiver for it.:down:

                              Strange, since it's got a pretty good HD transfer regularly running on MGM HD.
