If you live in the U.K don't buy any cannibal films from the shops. Their only the cut version of the film. Go to ebay and get them uncut from Holland their much better quality than the U.K versions. If your looking for banned stuff try getting August Undergrounds mordum & Penance.
Here's a site about the Video Nasties it keeps up to date with what ones are cut or uncut in the U.K

REALLY!??
Seems to me you simply copy and pasted those lists, MY work from my site, (since updated) word for word!
Worse though you copied my work but left no link to the site, or even acknowledgment of where you REALLY got your information from!
Walking encyclopedia? You can't even spell it. And in fact you're a walking bullshitter anyway!
Damn site won't let me post links. Find the entire list Bren posted and more at Beardyfreak dot com
Plagiarism. Such a dirty word.

Hahaha! I saw that movie as a wee kid and have always wanted to watch it again, but I cannot find a copy. I don't remember it being anything worth a bann... but now that I know it was banned, I wanna see it again even more. I remember it was pretty cheesey and laughable, typical "psycho offing horny teens in the woods" type movie (if i recall correctly).
I saw it, and I was scared beyond recognition! The music, the low budget camera, the camera work! Everything. It had everything!It was scary, it was dark, the music was scary, it was made during the golden age of horror with a low budget and no huge stars in it - everything I look for in a horror movie.It still is my favourite - no doubt about it. I can't imagine any movie being better than Raimi's masterpiece, I definitely can't.
Not much banned horror anymore with the internet.
Australia and the UK used to be the Bastions of banning back in the 80's but now......If it sells it gets a release.
Irreversible was controversial on its release here and Magda Szubanski of our Movie Show fame fought for its release and so it did get a cinema release.
Only snuff films get banned now not because of content but because of mass marketing to sell to audiences.
I think this is the best example of banned horror movies
