Viewing Notes

This was a rewatch for most of us, but the first time for my kids who not only loved it, but had no problems understanding the thick accents and slang that crippled this movie’s release in the U.S. Criminal, since it deserved a wider, better supported release than it got.

We were supposed to watch the BluRay, but due to an ordering/shipping snafu, we had to resort to renting the DVD from RedBox as a day-of replacement. It still looked great.

Second movie of our Halloween Movie Night.
