The Wolf of Wall Street, and The Conjuring: http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2014/...es-ghosts.html I'd love to see the 4hr original cut of WOWS!

I'd love to see the 4hr original cut of WOWS! Me too. I think it could possibly bring stronger closure to some of the side characters who fall by the wayside a little bit come the finale (depending on what material was cut out, of course ... I'm just assuming it was material from throughout the entire movie in general). Steeeeeeve Maddennnnnn. It's a pretty flippin' bonkers tale, so it is.

Oh! I just wanted to see another hour of non-stop dwarf throwing! You vicarious hedonist, you.

Oh! I just wanted to see another hour of non-stop dwarf throwing! Channel 5 is yer man for that.

X-Men: Days of Future Past, Jackass Presents Bad Grandpa, and Chernobyl Diaries: http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2014/...s-mutants.html Channel 5 is yer man for that. I remember when Channel 5 launched and all it ever showed was mostly rubbish, but every Friday night they bunged on a mucky film ... if you could get a signal, of course.

The Wolverine, White House Down, and The To-Do List: http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2014/...arp-claws.html 1) Mostly not-shit second stand alone spin-off. 2) Die Hard in the White House. 3) Nostalgic naughtiness.

Venus In Furs (Massimo Dallamano, 1969): http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2014/...mano-1969.html A film so raunchy (at the time at least) that it was confiscated and savagely censored after its Italian debut in 1973. Directed by the same man who made one of the best giallo films ever made - "What Have You Done To Solange?".

[MinionZombie]

havent seen that one, might have to watch it There's another Venus In Furs, also from 1969, that's directed by Jess Franco ... but I've not seen that one yet ... so you'd have to make sure you know which one you're watching in advance.

Baba Yaga (Corrado Farina, 1973): http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2014/...vd-review.html Based on the comic book by Guido Crepax. A beautiful photographer is drawn into the strange and wicked web of a curious older woman. References to socio-political movements and German Expressionism rubbing up against boobs bound in bondage gear.

The Frightened Woman (Piero Schivazappa, 1969): http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2014/...hivazappa.html AKA "The Laughing Woman" aka "Femina Ridens". A deeply hip'n'groovy dose of 1960s sexual politics akin to a war of the genders, featuring art by the likes of Niki De Saint Phalle.

The Borderlands, Captain Phillips, and Drinking Buddies: http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2014/...s-pirates.html 1) British 'found footage' horror about spooky goings-on in a small parish church. 2) You know, that film about the boat and the pirates that nobody's heard of. 3) Olivia Wilde and chums destroy their livers.

Captain Philips - I'll have to watch it, but it has been soured for me by the fact the crew have come forwards to suggest the captain's version of events are not what actually happened.
