Their first release of The Burning is cut while the second edition is uncut. Both versions use the same VHS master.

The original releases of The Beyond, The House By the Cemetery and Mountain of the Cannibal God are all in their correct ratios (2.35:1) but the later 'Screamtime' editions were cropped to full screen.


All their other releases are identical.

Since this has turned into the 'ask Pete' column ....

Dear Pete,

Is 'Prozzie' any good since I've always been hooked in by the exploitative title and don't mind Lommel's 'Boogeyman'?

From what I remember it's pretty dull and nowhere near as exploitative as the title suggests. Image released it in the US under it's proper title of Olivia.
