No sex please, we're British...

A Beast in a Jungle has received a huge number of hits today for "A Serbian Film" and now I know why- the film was to be screened this weekend at the U.K. FrightFest, but has now been pulled from the schedule, which would have been the only screening of the film in the U.K..

British censors demanded almost four minutes of the film be cut because of  its "juxtaposition of images of children with sexual and sexually violent material." Festival organizer Alan Jones responded, “Film4 FrightFest has decided not to show "A Serbian Film" in a heavily cut version because, as a festival with a global integrity, we think a film of this nature should be shown in its entirety as per the director’s intention."

I'm still doubtful an unedited version would ever be released in the U.S. on dvd for the same reasons cited by the Brits, but at least it's been shown at two festivals.
