Thanks for letting me know that! You should've kept that paper for the afterworld (assuming you haven't).This might be a long shot but do you happen to know in more detail where some of these screenings took place, at which independent/art-house cinemas?
fish wrote:I've never even thought about that before.
The Madman version has a small paper label saying the film has an "M" rating, suitable for mature audiences 16 years and over because of "offensive language".
fish wrote:The Memfis one has no rating label at all.
My recollection is that I bought both DVD's on Ebay, the Madman obviously came from an Australian seller, the Memfis from an international seller where no ratings were used.

Eldsjäl wrote:...If no publisher is shown on the DVD cover and the region code on the back is 0/All then it could very well be a bootleg...
fish wrote:That's true, but my DVD players are both "region free", meaning as long as it's the PAL system, they'll play.
Any DVD player can be converted to "region free".
I converted mine so I could play the Asian and European DVD's I own. (plus one from Argentina.)
fish wrote:I have strong objections to buying bootleg or pirate DVD's as I love to support the industry.
That's part of the reason I've joined in crowdfunding a number directors' new projects.
fish wrote:Here are scans of the covers.
I can't see anything which indicates they aren't legitimate, but if you can I'd appreciate it if you'd let me know.
