Thanks for nailing this down...ever since I saw that Facebook status update I've been salivating. Now I'm going to need to stay even more hydrated because these are all must haves.
OMG !!!! Being mad Francophile, hunting down His every movie I was dreaming about "Lorna" and "Comtesse" for months !!! (I was lucky to get "Journal Intime" on unofficial DVD-R release) I can't wait for MondoMacabro release !!! IIIIHAAAA !!
All these titles are welcome, but for potential surprises I'm most curious about Comtesse Perverse. The French Cinematheque programme listed a 72m RT -- maybe the DVD will give an earlier, closer-to-director's cut?
That would indeed be the correct rt of Franco's original version. It later was expanded with those wrap-around "comedy" scenes in the hotel with Lina and Caroline Riviere. Those were shot a year or so later along with hc inserts. The shortest version, in this case, IS the director's cut. I will be discussing this on CINEMADROME later.
ese films part of a box set (or box sets)? Can we expect further titles from Mondo Macabro - like the director's cut of OBSCENE MIRROR?
Revelator, I have been told that these will be single DVD's of each title-Vo. 1-3. I will be having a chat about the releases on my www.cinemadrome.yuku.com site at 3pm this afternoon.
