Beach of the War Gods - 1973 Hong Kong/Taiwan action war by Yu Wang.

Cut by the BBFC for AA rated cinema release in 1973. Later uncut and BBFC 15 rated for 2023 Blu-ray. Uncut and MPAA Unrated in the US Summary Review: Visually Stunning The famous
swordsman Hsia Feng gathers five other fighters and rallies the local fishermen to fight off a band of Japanese pirates. Since this is a Golden Harvest production the sets, costumes and props are well made. The directing by Wang
Yu is superb, his visual style of camera angles and the use of slow-motion is just like the movies are made today. The fight-choreographing is sharp, and visually stunning.

v The Beast in

- SS Hell Camp

- Horrifying Experiments of the S.S. Last Days
- SS Experiment Part 2
The Beast in Heat is a 1977 Italian Naziploitation by Luigi Batzella With Macha Magall, Gino Turini and Edilio Kim.
Banned as a video nasty in 1983. Not released in the UK since. Uncut and
MPAA Unrated in the US. Summary Review: The Good Old Days A beautiful, nefarious senior female SS officer/doctor (Magall) creates a genetic, mutant human Beast (half man/half beast). The Beast is a
rapacious, squat, mongoloid sex fiend which she uses to torture and molest female prisoners while the Nazis watch. The vertically challenged beast is kept on a diet of mega-aphrodisiacs. There is plenty of sadistic titillations, gore and nudity in this
Nazi sub-genre exploitation flick. Ahhh, the good old days when absolutely nothing was safe or sacred to the exploitation movie merchants.... Here we have, in my opinion, probably the most tasteless example of the
Naziploitation picture, a genre that more or less died shortly after this "movie".
Anyway, about the movie. For the uninitiated, start with Ilsa - She Wolf of the SS . If you can "enjoy" that bit of nastiness, then
perhaps consider taking on this "unique" take on a forgotten film genre. Just don't watch it with your mom or girlfriend or aunt or grandma etc...

Summary Review: Sexual Energy Without stating the obvious, the film is a mess. But that's where the fun begins. There is no real telling of what is happening, but one might surmise some of the possibilities. Ultimately
this film is riding the coattails of two other films: The Beast (La Bete) and Star Wars . How you might imagine to combine these two films into one heap of psuedo-science-fiction with a touch of pornography? Its not easy, and watching this
is not very easy either. There are hardcore scenes in this version, but its really not erotic or sexually interesting. While the film is already cut-up to an incomprehensible mess, the hardcore footage does not help
matters much either. |

The extra 50s could be distributor logos - given all the above, the UK version seems uncut.
Thanks to Scott: The IFCO have passed the film with a running time of 178m 52s,
practically the same as the NZ OFLC's 178m 50s. The BBFC have it at 178m 2s. It almost certainly is cut. The BBFC's website still doesn't list any cuts, however this could be a similar case to The Invisible Man in 2020 where cuts info was only added to
the site once the film had been released. US parental guide sites mention that the film contains several suicide scenes, including someone drinking paint and another person jumping from a building, with their head smashing open
upon landing - the BBFC don't mention suicide at all in their short insight, so quite possibly this is what's been cut. The sex scene responsible for the Aussie R18+ sounds quite strong too, yet the BBFC have buried the mention of it in the middle of
their short insight, so this is another candidate for cuts. Additionally, the film apparently contains several uses of the c-word, however the BBFC haven't mentioned very strong language in the short insight - it could be that they didn't have space for
the phrase very strong given how much else is listed, which previously happened with Promising Young Woman, although this is very rare. When the BBFC publishes its extended insight the situation will become clearer, but at the
moment this looks to be a proper 90-style hack job, cut to bits for no reason. If it really is missing almost a minute I won't be wasting my time seeing it.

whom the dangers of sexual asphyxiation might not be clear, seemed to warrant an '18' certificate. But as Kirei points out, the same scene would perversely be banned from an R18 film. |

Review from UK Amazon : Ultra-Fun This is a Russ Meyers
film, his final full length film as director and as usual his fascination for the female form is in abundance. The movie is based in a small town USA and centers around the married couple of Lammar and Levonna and the
sexual frustration of Levonna, here on in ensues a fantastic comedy soft porn romp in which the couple meet various colourful charactors along the journey to help cure Lammar's bedroom leanings, ending up in the fantastic Church of Rio Dio Radio where in lies Eufaula Roop, who has to be seen to be believed.
This movie was not the best received Meyers movie at the time of release however its safe to say that it has now gained cult status. | | ~10:00s |

The Benny Hill Show - 1969-1989 UK comedy TV series
The Benny Hill Show is a 1969-1989 UK comedy TV series
Starring Benny Hill, Henry McGee and Jackie Wright
Enormously popular at the time and had a long life of international sales. Later became a beacon of political correctness and was duly consigned to the televisual wilderness. Revived for TV showing on UK nostalgia channels in 2021 carefully
wrapped up in censor cuts and trigger warnings. Summary Notes A sketch-comedy series in which Hill would often play multiple characters and satirize popular British and American
performers and stars. Common themes in the show were the husband-beating wife, buxom women, and silent, high-speed chase scenes between Hill and the other characters.
That's TV Gold broadcast in the UK in 2021
Thanks to Philip
That's TV Gold channel is currently re-showing edited versions of The Benny Hill Show in the That's Entertainment slot with a warning at the beginning to the effect that This show contains outdated opinions that some people may find offence. Surely by
now people know what to expect from this show and if are offended by such humour they shouldn't watch it. In another edited episode of The Benny Hill Show and came across yet another trigger warning. This was for Black-Face and featured a hospital
sketch where in one scene Benny gets multiple bed-baths from a sexy nurse by disguising himself by various methods (Bandages, false moustache made from a broom etc.) One of which used a mop head and a tin of shoe polish as the patient was a Rastafarian.
Benny is caught out however as he forgot to boot-polish something, much to the nurses confusion and shock. And a deliberate censorial cut. There was a sketch where Benny Hill is playing vicar and is being interviewed by Patricia Hayes where they talk
about a bishop who Benny's character knew. At the end of the sketch the light fades but not the sound and the two can be heard talking. Hayes mentioned that when she interviewed the bishop last he pinched her bum but not in this version and there is a
very noticeable pictorial and sound cut in the sketch. As there have been warnings prior to the programme starting, wouldn't it have been better to leave the sketch intact?

violent viking warriors who wore bear skins and snouts. Not long after pairing off for romantic escapades, they find themselves terrorized and ripped apart by a large and violent bear...but is it actually a bear, or perhaps a real life berserker who has

Cut by the BBFC for 15 rated VHS in 1996 and 15 rated DVD in 2007. The 2016
Blu-ray release seems uncut but without a BBFC database entry. The US R rated version is very short. Summary Review : Bad Film, Great Fun I really enjoyed it, in a campy way.
Tommy turns up in some rural town and steps right into a race war. Tommy is basically given reason after reason to take on guys of 4 or more and throw them through various fruit stalls, ticket offices, coffee tables, and french windows.
The gorgeous Gina Gershon does her best as a choir teacher helping Tommy out, but whenever she needs to be helpless it kinda doesn't work because she now plays such strong, female roles. The
acting and direction are seriously questionable but this film is obviously about fight scenes and they are entertaining enough, from the moment we see Gershon's house is full of glass tables, flimsy bookcases and china filled cabinets we know we are in
for a treat. Terrible, patronising attitude toward racial issues but, hey, its got a rocket launcher and plenty of flying kicks. Versions

Betty Page: Bondage Queen is a 1998 US documentary by Irving Klaw Starring Bettie Page, Lili Dawn and Shirley Maitland
Banned by the BBFC for 1999 VHS release but was later passed 18 uncut for 2010 DVD.
Review: Queen of Curves The new DVD : Betty Page Bondage Queen will be a desirable addition to any Bettie Page fan but I suppose that I was expecting the whole disk to
be unpublished shots of the Queen of Curves as the title suggests. The several short movies presented are black and white films taken of some of Irving Klaw's models in their undies, being bound and gagged by Klaw's sister.
Betty appears in a few and in many stills. The exclusive commentary by Bettie Page is a short written page or two, not the audio file I hoped for. I enjoyed the movies of the models in their bras and panties, dark nylons and
ultra high heels as they tried to walk in them but a more truthful title for the DVD would have been Irving Klaw's Bondage and Fetish models, Featuring Bettie Page.
Summary Notes
Betty Page famous for her pin up modeling and other glamour girls appear in bondage photos and short films. These unique classics are the first film sources of today's fetish and SM scene and appear nowadays surreal, tender and
joyful. Versions

handcuffed, slapped, tethered and suspended. Such sequences of bondage, restraint and gagging (proffered as masturbation material) are very extensive and unacceptable. The distributor of this material has decided to re-edit two versions of Betty page's

Promotional Material Young Glenn and his father have gone into the woods for a fun-filled camping adventure. But when dad steps into a bear trap, the pair find themselves stranded miles from civilization,
with limited supplies and nothing to eat. After his dad dies, Glenn, as a matter of survival, is forced to consume his flesh. Years later, children from a nearby town begin to disappear into the woods, never to be seen again, while adults are murdered in
the most savage of fashions. Could not-so-young-anymore Glenn have something to do with all the mayhem? Shamelessly trashy and a whole lot of fun, prolific cinematographer Mik Cribben's ( The Defiance of Good ) sole
directorial effort, BEWARE: CHILDREN AT PLAY , is a no holds barred assault on good taste, with a plethora of ultra gory and creative deaths and one of the most ridiculous endings in the history of horror cinema. Another victim of decades of poor quality

modern day Louisiana as a woman oversees the the renovation of an hotel that she inherits. Strange and gory things start to happen and poof the hotel just happens to be over one of the 7 doors to hell. Very bloody with a
slightly incoherent plot the film is a lot of fun and I suspect that no Fulci fan should be without their copy. Visually I think this is Fulci's best film (that I've seen) and the acting is what you'd expect. Versions

- When the Doctor Phillips is battling with Laura, a few of the shots where he starts hacking at her neck are trimmed.

- Buried Alive
- Blue Holocaust
Beyond the Darkness is a 1979 Italy horror drama by Joe D'Amato. Starring Kieran Canter, Cinzia Monreale and Franca Stoppi.
Uncut by censors but the film has been been shortened for some releases.
Summary Review: Honest Horror A young rich orphan loses his fiancée to voodoo doll mischief on the part of his housekeeper who is jealous of his attentions. The film is
also packed with a series of extreme gore scenes that are effective and really well-done. All of a person's fingernails are pulled out with pliers in an act of pure sadism and the corpse dismemberment is a sickening, uncompromising gore sequence as it is
completely and utterly cut to pieces and dumped into acid, complete with gruesome close-ups provided of the flesh-less pieces immersed in acid. One of the strongest films to ever get through in the European sleaze genre, it's got
a lot to look forward to. Due to the subject matter and extremes presented, this is one for the strongest-willed of Exploitation fanatics, while those who have no desire for these films should avoid.

v Beyond the Valley of the Dolls - 1970 USA comedy music film by Russ Meyer.
- Más allá del valle de las muñecas
Beyond the Valley of the Dolls is a 1970 USA comedy music film by Russ Meyer. Starring Dolly Read, Cynthia Myers and Marcia McBroom.
Cut by the BBFC for X rated 1970 cinema release. Cut again for 18 rated 1989 VHS. Passed 18 uncut since 2003 DVD. Uncut and MPAA NC-17 rated in the US. Summary Review: Camp Classic This film is a sequel in name only to Valley of the Dolls (1967). An all-girl rock band goes to Hollywood to make it big. There they find success, but luckily for us, they sink into a cesspool of decadence. This film has a sleeping woman performing on a gun which is in her mouth. It has women posing as men. It has lesbian sex scenes. It is also written by Roger Ebert, who had become friends with Russ Meyer after writing favorable reviews of several of his films.
What more could one ask for? Valley of the Dolls took itself seriously with hilarious effects. Beyond the Valley of the Dolls (supposedly not related) was more of a spoof that played straight with seriously
hilarious effects. Both are camp classics and at this price, this DVD is nearly impossible to pass up.

review from IMDb : Colorized Fox Home Entertainment has once again attempted to improve upon a
classic. BEYOND TOMORROW gets the colorizing and retitling treatment, retitling the film (BEYOND Christmas). The company has also chopped out about 5 minutes of material from the movie. Granted, they include the material in the Extras as deleted
footage, but that only begs the question, What was the point of deleting it at this time, to begin with? Some of the deletions, such as the sequence where Arlene Terry's ex-boyfriend clashes with her new leading man, destroy the emotional
impact of the showdown between the two men and Arlene during the film's finale. To first-time viewers unfamiliar with the film, the jilted lover's appearance at the end comes almost out of the blue, causing confusion as to who he is. In spite of these
alterations/deletions, the box proudly announces the film is fully restored. Sorry, Fox, but the term restoration does NOT mean alteration or condensation. And with the various advances in such technology, it is amazing to see how artificial the
colorization still looks, at least on this film. | | | 83:34s |
