The Devils (Ken Russell, 1971)

[Mark Y]

I'm currently reading The Kenneth Williams Diaries and there's an entry from 1970 when he was making Carry On Henry, where he quotes an electrician making a rather salacious statement about the on-set shenigans of The Devils, which was being filmed at the same time. About an Alsatian dog, and I'll say no more

No idea if it's true or camp tittle-tattle, but I can't recall hearing this one before...

When I was young, I read in Ken Russell: An Appalling Talent that one of the female extras was sexually assaulted.

I've got the Spanish disc-it's the shorter version.
Comes in a nice slipcase though,and it's definetly a genuine Warner disc.
I also have the disc Zanner mentioned-just need to keep it for now.

I have both versions too - the R-rated cut on the Spanish disc is like watching a children's film.
