Maybe the mods could answer this, but since there seems to be an overwhelming amount of people looking to trade for whatever version they couldn't get, to avoid the inevitable 50 odd trade request threads popping up, there's at least 4 or 5 already, would it be possible to merge them into a single Cannibal Holocaust vinyl buddy/trading thread to keep it all in one place?
Anyway got the deluxe which is what I wanted, I wish it had Mondo's centre label, but you can't win them all, the extras on the deluxe release made it the obvious choice for me, really appreciate them including the artwork to the other two releases as bonus posters.
Like many her I am beyond stoked to finally have this coming to me in vinyl, this movie is one of my all time favourite horror films and the score is incredible, as you all know, this was a long time coming and it shows in the care given to this release, massive thanks to DW, OWS and Mondo for bring this to us!
Also, if you haven't seen this film and are put off by the animal stuff, you should put any squeamishness aside and give it a go, it's a great film, and the animal deaths, while graphic, are only a small part of the film, and aside from the turtle part are all over pretty quickly. As reprehensible as it is to think of this being done in modern times, with all the special effects capabilities available, you have to put these scenes into context, seeing real animals killed adds a certain gravity and reality to the film. Psychologically, the effect of watching real animals being killed tends to add a stronger sense of reality to the staged human deaths, regardless of how obviously fake they may appear.
