Nope, no problems at all here.

I didn't notice anything untoward either, but I plan to watch again this week and will say if there is anything which strikes me as odd. (Synchronisation issues don't count because the voices are dubbed in post production and actors are usually speaking different languages – probably a mixture of Italian and English – on set to those which people in the ADR booth were using.)

There are too many 'pixel warriors' out there at the moment. Surely if the film is watchable and you can see/hear everything then all is OK?

What do you think we should do? Pull the release? Release it anyway as now you've seen the scene it doesn't matter so much?

It's been passed with 8 seconds of cuts, removing the animal cruelty

I must have missed something. TOURIST TRAP in the Slasher Classics line ?
When was this?

If memory serves me right, 88 films came under fire for releasing a cut version some years back.

Charlie band mastered a HD version from an R-rated print rather than the negatives. 88 got sold a dud basically. The american blu-ray has the same issues.

Ironmaster, 2019 and Hide and go Shriek are all up for pre-order on the 88 shop. Obviously I've ordered them all, now I've bought into the slip covers I'm going to have to buy them all.
