The video was seized subject to an Obscene Publications Act Section 3 Seizure Order.

Gemini Man is a 2019 China / USA action crime thriller by Ang Lee.
Starring Will Smith, Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Clive Owen. IMDb

Uncut and 12A rated by the BBFC. A rare 12 rated use of the word 'motherfucker'.

The BBFC commented it its annual report covering 2019:

In the action thriller Gemini Man, there is a single use of 'motherfucker' when one character explains an acronym to another. While it is uncommon for this term to appear in content at this category, in this undirected and matter of fact context we concluded a 12A was appropriate.

Our previous research with the public has indicated that people are accepting of infrequent use of this term, particularly where it is not complicated by violence, threat or aggression.

Banned in the UK as a Video Nasty. Banned by the BBFC for video release in 2021. Available uncut in the US but there is also a cut version.

Bannable scenes include girls being dunked in quick-lime, girls fellating pistols and sodomising the commandant with the butt of a whip.

Summary Review: Way Better than Expected

In the tradition of THE NIGHT PORTER, SALON KITTY and SALO only far more depraved comes perhaps the most notorious Nazisploitation epic of them all: Daniela Levy stars as a beautiful young death camp prisoner forced into a nightmare of brutality, torment and sexual degradation. But will a Commandant's vilest urge trigger her ultimate vengeance? Marc Loud co-stars in this fetid slice of filth-strudel

Caligula Reincarnated as Hitler was way better than what I expected. The young blonde star of the film is gorgeous and someone both men and women would find attractive to sleep with. There are some five star sexual violence scenes that are unfortunately too brief. Beatings, whippings, gang raping of women prisoners, dipping naked women into vats of lime, hanging the young blonde star nude and upside down over a box of live rats! I mean, hey you "sicko" Nazi fans, is this something or what?

There are no actual hardcore sex scenes, however, there are multiple simulated sex scenes that are quite hot to watch.

The BBFC commented:

THE GESTAPO'S LAST ORGY is an Italian exploitation film, from 1977, in which a Jewish woman revisits the site of a concentration camp in which she was formerly imprisoned and subjected to torture, terrorisation, humiliation and sexual violence.

BBFC Guidelines state that: As a last resort, the BBFC may refuse to classify a work --.where a central concept of the work is unacceptable, such as a sustained focus on rape, other non-consensual sexually violent behaviour or sadistic violence.

THE GESTAPO'S LAST ORGY is largely composed of scenes of strong sadistic violence, humiliation, degradation and non-consensual sexual activity, including rape, all of which occurs within a clearly anti-Semitic context. Its central concept is therefore unacceptable, and the sadistic and sexually abusive material it contains is too pervasive to be effectively addressed by cuts.

Accordingly, the BBFC has refused classification to this work.

Summary Notes

Carter "Doc" McCoy is a career robber, currently in his fourth year of a ten year prison sentence at the Texas State Penitentiary. After his request for parole is denied despite he being a model prisoner, Doc, unable emotionally to endure life inside, asks his loving wife Carol McCoy to contact crooked businessman Jack Beynon, a man with political connections, to secure his release in return for he being "for sale" to Beynon. Beynon is able to get Doc released, the sale price being for Doc to plan and execute a robbery at a small bank branch in Beacon City, Texas where Beynon knows that $750,000 will be kept in the vault for the next two weeks. Rather than Doc using his own men for the job, Beynon directs that the only other people involved will be the men of his own choosing, Rudy and Frank. There are to be no casualties, which is all right with Doc who is not a murderer.

Ghost in the Shell 2.0 is a reproduced version of its original 1995 counterpart. For the films Version 2.0 release, all the original animations were re-produced with latest digital film and animation technologies, such as 3D-CGI. The original soundtrack was also re-organized and re-recorded. The original Japanese version has the song "Reincarnation" played over the ending credits. This song was replaced with "One Minute Warning" by U2 and Brian Eno.

Japanese music composer Kenji Kawai, who orchestrated the score for the original 1995 production, remixed the Version 2.0 soundtrack in 6.1 Channel Surround.

To complement the new soundtrack, Japanese voice dialogue was also re-recorded, with some variation from the original script to make use of more recent colloquial phrases in modern speech. Notably, the original male voice actor for the character of the Puppet Master, Iemasa Kayumi, has been replaced by the female voice actor Yoshiko Sakakibara

From the BBFC 2007 Annual Report:

Ghost Rider was passed '12A' on its theatrical release, after reductions were made to the sequence in which Johnny transforms into the 'Ghost Rider' for the first time. For the film's DVD release the distributors reinstated the cut material, in particular shots of the skin on Johnny's face breaking and falling away. These more detailed and gory shots added significantly to the intensity and horror of the sequence and necessitated an increase in category from 12A to 15

Ratings are decided in France by La Commission de Classification, an independent body under the jurisdiction of the National Center of Cinematography. In February 2018,, the commission's newly appointed president, Yves Gounin, found himself under the spotlight after he gave French horror picture Ghostland an 18 certificate. The 18 certificate is more or less reserved for hardcore porn and gave the film no chance of a commerical cinema release. Distributor Mars Distribution challenged the decision and the rating was dropped to a commercially viable 16.

With a nod to Hitchcock and a wink in the direction of Agatha Christie, The Girl Who Knew Too Much inadvertently created a genre that would dominate Italian cinema for years to come: the giallo.

A young American secretary with a taste for lurid paperbacks witnesses a murder whilst visiting Rome or does she? Nobody will believe her, but she appears to have stumbled upon the work of a serial killer active ten years earlier. The victims surnames began A, B and C... and hers begins with the letter D!

A host of familiar genre faces including Hal Holbrook (Creepshow), Rutanya Alda (Amityville II: The Possession), Julia Montgomery (The Kindred) and Lauren-Marie Taylor (Friday the 13th Part 2) rounds out the cast of this gloriously mean-spirited slice from the slasher golden age, Girls Nite Out! The students of DeWitt University are preparing themselves for a night of fun and frolics in the form of an all-night scavenger hunt. Little do they know that they are in fact the ones being hunted... An unhinged assailant, disguised in the college's goofy bear mascot outfit -- and bearing knives for claws, two years before Freddy donned his famous gloves -- is stalking the campus hellbent on carving up co-eds.

Before his death, the Emperor chooses Maximus to be his heir over his own son, Commodus, and a power struggle leaves Maximus and his family condemned to death. The powerful general is unable to save his family, and his loss of will allows him to get captured and put into the Gladiator games until he dies.
