Foreseeing a relaxation of censorship on the horizon, England’s Titan Films filmed this mad surgery opus with far more gore and cruelty than was the norm in 1967-68, and their gambit paid off. Horror favorite Peter Cushing stars with Sue Lloyd, a pair nobody expected to show up in a shocker with such a high sleaze quotient. Pi’s special edition gives us three versions of the show including the continental cut with Cushing’s most lurid scene ever, and heaps of comment and analysis.

I’ve just watched the trailer and it looks fabulous with a real quirky British feel. It’s so great to see British film-makers thriving at what we all love so much!

The movie has already been screened at Minghella, Montreal and is set to for it’s Us premiere at Mill Valley Film Festival alongside Ralph Fiennes’ ‘Coriolanus’ and Lynn Ramsay’s ‘We need to talk about Kevin’.
