16mm print of Wes Craven’s banned cut of ‘Last House On The Left’ up for auction on eBay


 
Horror fans may be interested putting in a bid for an original 16mm print of Wes Craven’s “banned” exploitation shocker The Last House on the Left which is currently up for grabs on eBay.

The print was owned by actor David Hess who starred in the film and is now being sold by his son. The print is in “perfect condition and was stored in a sealed container for years protecting it from any damage.”

Need I say more it’s a one of a kind and will come with one of very few signed pictures still in my families possession. And a copy of the sound track on cd or vinyl.

The Last House on the Left was banned in the UK by the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) which refused to give the movie a certificate on grounds of sadism and violence. The film was later released uncut on video in 1982 but was again banned under the Video Recordings Act of 1984 by the Department of Public Prosecutions as a “Video Nasty.” The film remained banned throughout the eighties and nineties until it was eventually released (with 31 seconds cut) in the UK on DVD in 2002.

If you fancy putting in a bid you will have to be quick as bidding finishes in just about eight hours, details here.
