Apparently HMV have started shipping preorders of it. I ordered direct the first day it went live and still waiting on dispatch.

Gaira's Guts Trilogy [1-3 collection] [Blu-ray]

IMG_1196.jpg

Discover the visceral world of Kazuo 'Gaira' Komizu with the definitive trilogy boxset: "Guts of a Beauty," "Guts of a Virgin," and "Rusted Body." Renowned for his bold storytelling and uncompromising vision, Gaira delves into the darkest corners of human nature and desire. Each film weaves a gripping narrative with unflinching imagery, pushing the boundaries of horror and eroticism. This collection is a must-have for fans of provocative cinema, offering a unique glimpse into the twisted genius of one of Japan's most controversial directors.

Guts of a Beauty: In a world where innocence meets terror, a young woman finds herself at the mercy of a sadistic killer. As she navigates the urban labyrinth, she uncovers the true extent of her captor's madness. Each encounter pushes her closer to the brink of sanity, blending horror with a raw exploration of human resilience.

Guts of a Virgin: A group of filmmakers on a remote shoot discovers that their secluded location harbors a dark secret. As night falls, they are hunted by a grotesque creature born from their worst nightmares. The lines between reality and horror blur as they fight for their lives, confronting their own fears and desires.

Rusted Body: In a dystopian future, a disfigured man grapples with his identity amidst a society that shuns him. As he searches for a place to belong, he encounters others who are similarly broken, each bearing their own scars. Their stories intertwine in a haunting tapestry of pain and redemption.

Don’t see that Gaira set getting through the BBFC in one piece. Would love to be proved wrong though.

Got my Pete Walker set delivered today. Wow - what a package!
Slimline cases with reversible artwork ( featuring the original film posters ), postcards, booklet and two sets of 3d glasses!
Love Pete Walker?s films ( FRIGHTMARE is a classic ) and I can?t wait to dive in to these.
There was a point when I thought this set might never get released, but I?m so glad it has. It has to be up there with the best releases of the year so far, no doubt.

I want it but i'm not sure i can justify paying eighty quid for six films.

I know there's seven but Die Screaming Marianne is crap.

I sold my US Redemption sets to help fund it!
You?re right about DSM mind 😁

Mine arrived yesterday and it's a beautiful set, well worth picking up even though I already had both the Redemption sets from KL. It's 74.99 if you order direct with free postage and you will accumulate 750 points towards your next purchase so technically you could consider it being 67.49 GBP. I can see this going quick but I'm sure a SE set will follow anyway probably minus the book, art cards and glasses.

they will be a USA release only because if they are the films I think they are then they most defiantly will be a US only release.
