Movie Review: The New York Ripper (1982, Blu-ray, Shameless)

There are a handful of films that even with my jaded tastes make me wanna soak in a shower for hours, lathering myself up until my lumpy frame wrinkles up like a prune. One of note that does just that incredibly well is Lucio Fulci's highly controversial, The New York Ripper. Censored just about everywhere it's been released because of it’s over the top sadistic violence towards women,The New York Ripper has a special place in many a gore fans black heart. It's truly a unique beast as it's not only horrific but it's also hilarious. Shameless Screen Entertainment has taken this Video Nasty on by creating the most complete version ever to be released in the UK. This Shameless Blu-ray release, although slightly cut, is still the longest version of the movie available.

Movie Review: Cannibal Holocaust (1980, Blu-ray)

Well here it is folks, the very first Blu-ray edition of the notorious horror film Cannibal Holocaust. Directed by euro-cult movie maverick, Ruggero Deodato (Jungle Holocaust, Live Like a Cop, Die Like a Man), Cannibal Holocaust has been produced for the Blu-ray market by Shameless Screen Entertainment out of the UK. With a surprisingly minor interference by The British Board of Film Censors, Shameless has been  are forced to have a single scene of animal violence censored (14 seconds total) for the release. In a way this is kind of amazing, considering the fact that Cannibal Holocaust has quite a bit more animal violence that made it through. In addition to the film, Shameless has also included a healthy serving of extras and an alternate cut made by Deodato to lessen the animal carnage. Is it worth the upgrade? Let's have a look!
