Charley One-Eye (Don Chaffey, 1973)

So I reached out to them and got a reply. To their knowledge they release an uncut version, and even got HD elements from Paramount to do so (some parts seem to be inferior but that’s a small price to pay I guess, if it is just a few minutes of footage that have inferior quality). I am told the UK theatrical version passed BBFC with cuts, whereas later home video releases passed uncut. And this is the 86mins, maybe the 96min is a matter of frame rate or pal-ntsc difference etc? Apparently there is a pirated Spanish version somewhere but it is unclear whether that one is really containing more footage despite saying it runs 107mins…

107 mins is the running time of an English language print, listed as a ‘Web Rip’, by a certain tracker … so maybe it came from Amazon Prime or some equivalent source.

I got some additional info: there seems to be a longer US version indeed at Paramount. Aside from just extended shots and whatnot there is apparently a scene of folks shooting at Jesus that is also missing from the UK version.

I can organize a review copy for someone UK based on the condition of writing a fully fledged review of the disc for the SWDb, any takers, please PM me with a shipping address.
