There's hope

Picked up Nightbirds,Requiem for a Village (Again!) Her Private Hell and Herostratus today-nice BODY BENEATH artwork inside the front cover of the booklet-I'm thinking of canibalizing it!

TBP also has superb artwork on the booklet (see my avatar).
If only the BFI would do reverse covers-they'd be the perfect package!

What the...why had I not heard this!

Splendid!

I have to admit I've watched The Big Switch but haven't watched the main feature yet! It's also available in the uncut export edition or the UK cut. The export has a lot of full frontal nudity.

Apparently it is just this reason. It was mentioned on the Digital Fix 'Anatomy of a Flipside' article, which I'd forgotten.

There is not one BFI Flipside release that I would buy
saw the film with Jane Asher (set in swimming pool) on tv and it was a boring Brit arty film
Nothing of interest

[trouserpress]

Wow! That's a bit harsh! I would have thought the Flipside had something in there for every fan of weird movies. And I couldn't disagree more about Deep End. I am in love with Jane Asher in that movie. I think it's fantastic.

[bizarre_eye@Cult Labs]

Yes, Deep End is a fantastic film.

There are so many gems to uncover when you explore the flipside range.

[The Reaper Man@Cult Labs]

And Jane Asher is one of them....

I wonder what BFI have lined up next.
Although all the movies so far are exelent, I hope we get some more Horror in the future. The Body Beneath has really wetted my appetite for some British sleazy exploitation.
