Btw, if the Ganja scene I speak of is in this print, it'll be right close to the end, you'll find it a few minutes before the end credits roll. Good luck and let me know what you think of it if it's there.House of Karnsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04957214135444293024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23449634.post-59070147019536643862010-07-25T10:21:22.041-07:002010-07-25T10:21:22.041-07:00HofK, a friend recently bought it hoping it was th...HofK, a friend recently bought it hoping it was the obscure Larence Jordan film but it turned out to be the Ganja and Hess re-edit. She asked whether I wanted to see that cut... I think I'll say yes, now.<br /><br />btw, many thanks for the subtitle heads-up iro Sveto Mesto and Lepterica - managed to get synced subs re the latter and reviews will be forthcoming.Taliesin_ttlghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10105263634442191232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23449634.post-10647073199485069922010-07-25T08:40:12.695-07:002010-07-25T08:40:12.695-07:00Taliesin-

I used to see Black Vampire around years ago at my local video store, but I never bothered with it because I had the Blood Couple tape. If I were a gambling man, though, I would bet it probably does have the scene, and if you can score the tape cheap it might be worth the roll of the dice. : )House of Karnsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04957214135444293024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23449634.post-52224847522887281712010-07-25T01:48:03.917-07:002010-07-25T01:48:03.917-07:00HofK, is that footage in the version released as B...HofK, is that footage in the version released as Black Vampire?Taliesin_ttlghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10105263634442191232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23449634.post-33112305514031421542010-07-24T17:24:25.078-07:002010-07-24T17:24:25.078-07:00How in the heck I could have left this one out of ...How in the heck I could have left this one out of my top 20 I'll never know. I love this film and it only gets better with repeated viewings. What I wanted to point out, though, is that while it is nothing short of a vamp revelation that we finally got to see Gunn's original cut, the vhs entitled Blood Couple is far from being worthless, if only for one scene (and what a *doozy* it is!) in particular. This scene I mention has Ganja being chased around inside a room by the shadow of the cross (displayed on the walls) in a supernatural shadowy kind of way that has to bee seen to be believed. I cannot understand why Gunn chose to leave this out because it's one of the most fascinating sequences in either version. I wish the dvd had included in the extras for more vampire fans to see, or for that matter why not just include the whole Blood Couple edit? Which does have an entirely different feel, there's no doubt about it.House of Karnsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04957214135444293024noreply@blogger.com
