The Name of the Rose
One of those films i remember as it regularly featured in the video club at the back of my gran's Radio Times in the 80's. From memory it would be closer to the top left of the page with other grown up stuff like Witness, Killing fields and The Mission. Bottom right was for Porky's, Maniac cop and Emmanuelle.

I’ve only seen ‘The Name of the Rose’ once, late at night on holiday at my gran’s in the 90s. Been very keen to watch it again as I remember it being great, but it’s not on any streaming service, and DVD/Blue Ray are relatively expensive and imports - there must be some UK rights issue.
Anyway, spotted this while idly browsing the listings and can’t wait for it. I must have been to PCC 50 times, but never the upstairs screen before.

Similarly, The Abyss is a movie that’s not easy to see these days. From what I gather Cameron has more or less disowned it. DVDs are more freely and cheaply available but the transfer is astonishingly shit.
