They posted this earlier regarding Opera:

“Coming soon from our sister label CultFilms! Any idea what this film is from?”

I am wondering if Suspiria and Opera have played a part in holding up Mountain and Ferox. Mountain was delayed already and having to change the cover delayed it further so I wonder if Shameless / Argent have been concentrating on Opera which has had a knock on effect?

Whatever the reason, a little transparency wouldn't hurt.

CANNIBAL FEROX aka ‘Make them Die Slowly’
Format: Blu-ray only
Release date: 30 July
THE MOST VIOLENT FILM EVER MADE - BANNED IN 31 COUNTRIES
A decade on from starting the cannibal genre, director Umberto Lenzi has the final word, pushing the vomit envelope beyond the sick with his utterly nasty, nihilistic apotheosis CANNIBAL FEROX. So unredeemable that its own makers denounced it as 'barbaric'..!
An academic, Gloria (Lorraine De Selle), journeys to the Amazon jungle where things go awry when her party encounters sadistic druggy villain Mike (Giovanni Lombardo Radice aka John Morghen), as the travellers venture further into the heart of darkness, they soon discover what it means to be hunted prey.
CANNIBAL FEROX aka 'Make Them Die Slowly', topped the official Video Nasty list for its raw, graphic scenes of torture, mutilation, murder and cannibalism. This new 2K restoration features new grading which revives for the first time, the original edgy look of the 16mm film stock it was shot on - finally presenting the film as it was first created by director Umberto Lenzi, on location in the Amazonian green inferno.

Cuts to animal cruelty have apparently been replaced with substitutions..


ALL previous cuts reinstated. The BBFC waived ALL previous cuts relating to violence (by & against humans). Therefore since all previous (non-animal cruelty) cut scenes of gore and torture and mutilations have been reinserted for the first time ever, this is the LONGEST EVER, HARDEST, GORIEST version ever legally published in UK!

However in keeping with UK’s animal cruelty Acts, there are some BBFC trims where some of the more gratuitous (unnecessary) animal torture have been substituted: therefore the animal torture scenes were removed and replaced by other visuals of the exact same duration, seamlessly edited-in, and thereby preserving the original duration of the film.

Where does the "number" appear on the cover of mountain of the cannibal god? I see a blank white space which looks like it should have a number on it on the back.

Someone asked this on Facebook a couple of weeks back, the only numbered editions were direct from Shameless, if you bought it in HMV etc then they aren’t numbered and (I think) don’t come with a slipcase, which is where the numbers are I believe

[JAMIOUSE]

Yeah the number is printed on the card slipcover, the standard edition just has a blank white box on the back. My local HMV still has some copies sat on the shelves.

[Nostalgic]

Thanks, debating ordering Ferox direct vs hmv pickup, might just get it once it hits shelves, unless they get complaints about the cover lol!
