News: A Serbian Film Auction Banned By Ebay




Perhaps one of the most disturbing horror films of all time, the perversity of A Serbian Film will be getting an ultimate director's cut. As a pervasive genre film that already pushed the boundaries of what most would even consider watchable, director Srdjan Spasojevic's journey into the bowels of depravity is going to have a new cut that will be five minutes longer. Unearthed Films will be in charge of the U.S. release and they have released an uncensored trailer. Apparently, there's over sixty hours of unreleased footage that will be cut into extended version for the newly edited release, along with various special features. 

In advance of the, Unearthed Films held a special screening of the film that included a gallery exhibit, with props being auctioned off on eBay. eBay decided that the auction was too inappropriate and pulled it. You can read the full press release below.

The “A Serbian Film Auction” has been put on HOLD due to eBay taking all of the listings down. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. We have been on the phone with eBay staff and management about this for the past 3 days but, despite our appeals, their position is that they want nothing to do with A Serbian Film. They have even refused to sell the costumes, stuffed toys and well, you know, the other stuff.

We have decided to resolve the situation by setting up our own online auction site; a place where the eBay thought police will be unable to enforce their narrow-minded morality test. We have decided that there will be no more misguided corporate interference in the choice of items that we put on sale. It is important to us that our customers are allowed the freedom to purchase items without eBay looking over their shoulder and making decisions for them.

We will have the new auction site up and active within the next week on the A Serbian Exhibition website at: aserbianexhibition.com

We are happy to announce that the gallery exhibition and screening at Lethal Amounts and the Downtown Independent theater was a roaring success and we thank everyone who attended. The storyboard pages and posters (only a few left) are still up for sale on eBay and the props, costumes and other items will be back up for sale shortly.
