I picked this VHS US Paragon tape up at a flea market for less and a dollar. Does anyone know if it has been put on DVD or how much has been cut from this?

Forgive the inappropiate listing of this film. I can find very little on it and do not wosh to make the mistake of using the proper Italian name incorrectly.

Good to see you back on the forum Vog! The title of the film you seek is 'Napoli violenta' (Violent Naples).

It's had a DVD release in Italy, which was the source for the Alfa Digital bootleg DVD.

Hi Vog - The Paragon VHS of Violent Naples (Violent Protection) is ever so slightly trimmed too. All other DVD releases are uncut mate.

Holy fuck I'll just say it.

Cut ta hell. Pieces, bro. Put it away and start anew.

The Federal Video in PAL DVD runs for 1:31:14

The Paragon NTSC tape runs for 1:32:09

Nice one...which would make the Paragon tape cut by around 3 minutes. So I guess I was being lenient by saying it was "slightly trimmed"!

[VogNyhmn]

Thanks folks!
I think I might just keep the tape for the art and nostalgia though

Yeah, what's worse, though, is that there will be a conversation between two people and you'll be lucky if you see someone's ear. I don't recall if it's pan&scan or matted, but it's atrocious, whatever it is!

Good choice! That's exactly what I've done as well.
