Il seguito (Tabù 2) sarà trasmesso giovedì 30/4/2020 alle 0.40 su Cine34
la versione di cine34 di questo film non è semplicemente sforbiciata, è proprio ignominiosamente decespugliata di ben 25’. tra le scene mancanti, anche sequenze del tutto innocue e tutt’altro che efferate.
siamo nell’era in cui un dodicenne ha un serbian film human centipede 2 o youporn e bestgore a tiro di click, e ci si accanisce ancora a massacrare inoffensivi mondos di 60 anni fa trasmessi in seconda o terza fascia?! io davvero straboh.
Hello Mondo Maniacs!
I recently had a copy of this movie, but unfortunately I have now lost it.
Is anyone able to point me in the right direction at all?
Two version are available (for both I tabù and I tabù n°2):
- a cut HDwebrip from Mediasetplay (same master reported by schramm)
- an uncut telecine
There are two versions in circulation for both?
Very good to hear. I would very much like to compare and contrast them both. I believe I have both of I Tabu on discs somewhere, possibly both versions of I Tabu n.2 also actually but I would prefer them readily to hand in a drive for comparison purposes between both versions so that I could write at length about their differences and similarities, cuts, additional footage, run times etc
If I remember correctly my TV version was titled as I Tabu No.2 - I Miti Del Mondo and ran for around 74-75 mins?
I then had a version without the “I Miti Del Mondo” title card addition that ran much closer to 1.38.42 if I remember rightly. Would that sound correct?
Dunno, I have to check.
@Baron_Mynd
the tv version of tabù 2 is ultracut (25’ missing). I have to check in my external HD but the telecine should be 100’ circa. I’ll let you know tomorrow.
Thank you @schramm and @Frank_n_Furter, I appreciate that.
The reason for my interest is related to another mondo movie that, I believe, may have appropriated footage from this movie!
Needless to say, a rewatch is required in order to fully establish what may (or may not) have been. The hunt is on!
several mondos, especially the latest ones of massi/crisanti, recycled many scenes from both marcellini’s exploits. the most popular one is the yubitsume sketch /which is obviously hyperfake) featured on taboos 1
@Baron_Mynd today I’ve checked both marcellini’s telecines:
the first taboo’s telecine lasts 93’30"
taboo 2 has a rt of 98’40’’ circa
I wondered if perhaps Sadismo utilises the seaweed scene from I Tabu n.2.
I have ordered a new laptop, which should hopefully be with me later this week, so I will soon be able to watch both and compare and contrast to confirm for us.
@Schramm perhaps you recognise this lizard:
Hello mondo maniacs!
I wonder if perhaps there are censorship documents available that may list the suggested cut scenes for this film at all?
@Frank_n_Furter Do you happen to recognise the lizard that is fed live chicks at all?
No, I’m sorry, my memory is not so good ![]()
@Baron_Mynd why don’t you post a catchscreen? it should make it easier ![]()
I’m not entirely sure I understand the request, do you mean a short video of it playing rather than just a screenshot image?
I was almost certain it would appear in I Tabu (or I Tabu n.2) as the scene with the white mouse being dangled above the oriental females mouth was used, but alas, it doesn’t appear to be the case - which is immensely frustrating!
The lizard does, however, appear in Its A Woman’s World and Sadismo. For now that remains the link, though I am curious as to whether the scene involving the white mouse also appears anywhere else in a Japanese movie prior to Romolo Marcellini’s movies.
I’ve done a short video of the scene playing in the film so you can see it @schramm
apparently, wetransfer now requires an account. I tried logging in with one of my google emails, but it won’t unlock the transfer panel…
