This whole sequence has been like looking at my life, my friends, my
music, my politics, my misdemeanours, fuckups and triumphs. In turns,
hilarious and deeply moving. Ken Loach for Generation-X. Woody is
a legend!

Hell on Earth: The Desecration & Resurrection of The Devils (2002)
I don't think I'll ever shift the image of
Lovejoy's Tinker (Dudley Sutton) warming actresses goose-pimpled tits
with a hairdryer out of my head.
For those wondering, there are short clips of the 'Rape of Christ' and 'Charred Bone' scenes on the 2-disc BFI DVD but they are not shown in their entirety thanks to the restrictions imposed on the release by Warner Brothers. As far as I know, apart from bootlegs and youtube clips taken from VHS recordings of the original Channel 4 airing of 'Hell on Earth' there is currently no way to see these excised scenes.
A bloody good documentary on an excellent film but both critic Alexander Walker and Warner Brothers are Grade-A dicks.
The world without Ken Russell and Derek Jarman is a little more dull and pedestrian :(
