          Why would anybody watch a scum show like Videodrome? Why did you watch it, Max?

              I wonder if this release includes his 2015 film Kiddie Flamingos. Would love to see this.

                It isn't listed on the release.

                    I know it's only July, but I think PINK FLAMINGOS may be the release of the year. You'll see why.

                      I'm impatiently awaiting the UK release in a few weeks time.

                        Is the UK version going to be fully uncut?

                        I hadn't watched this flick in probably 15 years and the chicken scene was even more shocking than I remembered.

                          Yes, it was recently passed uncut. Amazing what they'll do if someone like Criterion comes along.

                          Even when it was butchered by the BBFC, I had a legitimate bought on the high street 18 labelled VHS release on a double bill with Female Trouble that was uncut, not sure if they used the wrong master or knew that there was little chance that the BBFC would ever find out. I subsequently bought a remastered VHS in the late 90's and that was still heavily cut by them, so my earlier tape was a real fluke.

                            The first time I saw FLAMINGOS was via a completely butchered Canadian VHS version; all of the major scenes were cut out except the dog shit scene was intact. Needless to say, it was a revelation when New Line put out that uncut VHS.

                              Apparently it was passed uncut a couple years ago, but a disc release never happened.

                                It's incredible to see Pink Flamingos get a Criterion blu-ray release. Hopefully Desperate Living follows on the heels of this.
