Does anyone have the specs for the SSSSSSS (Dual Format) release ?.I'm a moderator on REWIND & I'm assuming the climax where the mongoose fights with 'Benedict' in snake form is still cut for animal cruelty, like the old CIC video release.Any help with RTs of movie & extras plus audio specs would be appreciated.

I compared it with my region one Universal dvd,and it looks identical to me,when the sheriff shots the head off the cobra that kills Strother Martin,the fight between the snake and mongoose which follows looks the same to me.

Interesting as this is a 'staged' fight & would normally be cut by the BBFC or pre cut by the distributor.If the head shot to the cobra was real it would probably pass as a 'quick kill' but I think it was faked.The BBFC only cut the final fight.

If you have the full specs for both the UK dvd & blu-ray to add to REWIND they would be appreciated.I emailed 101 Films to see if it was still cut a few days ago but no reply so far.I may contact the BBFC as the cuts may have been at least reduced as they usually over cut for video.However if you have the old uncut R1 like me & it seems identical who knows.

So excited for this, I wanted to import the US disc but it's Shout Factory therefore locked! Hopefully it'll hit a tenner before release date.

For the first time on Blu-ray in the UK comes this classic 70s festive slasher horror!

It's time for Christmas break, and the sorority sisters make plans for the holiday, but the strange anonymous phone calls are beginning to put them on edge. When Clare disappears, they contact the police, who don't express much concern. Meanwhile Jess is planning to get an abortion, but boyfriend Peter is very much against it. The police finally begin to get concerned when a 13-year-old girl is found dead in the park. They set up a wiretap to the sorority house, but will they be in time to prevent a sorority girl attrition problem?

• Audio Commentary with director Bob Clark

That actually looks like a decent release, might have to rethink my post about it on the other thread and upgrade after all

I went to the Amazon page expecting to post a sarcastic comment about a trailer to go with the poster others mentioned. I was a little stunned to say the least when i saw the list of extras.

They must have just updated the listing, because when I searched for it and saw the ridiculous price tag of £22.99, there wasn't any extras listed
