Society (1989) Arrow UK (Blu-ray + DVD) easter egg UPDATED

Postby Darrel_Griffin » 01 Dec 2018 07:10

Society (1989) Arrow UK (Blu-ray + DVD)

includes an easter egg:

On either the Blu-ray or the DVD, go to Special Features, highlight 'Screaming Mad George Music Video' then press RIGHT to play the Screaming Mad George short (copyright 2003, released 2005 according to IMDb) called 'Boy in the Box' (4:01 on Blu-ray, 3:54 on DVD), in English with burnt-in Asian subtitles (probably Chinese, but I'm not sure as I don't know much about Asian languages).

I suspect the Arrow US (Blu-ray + DVD) and the Arrow UK (DVD only) releases have the same easter egg, but can't confirm.

By the way, I've seen some pretty strange movies over the years, but this short is perhaps the weirdest thing I've ever watched - truly bizarre!

Any screenshots of the subtitles?

I could probably get one off the DVD, but how do I get it to you?

I've just found a trailer for it on Youtube:

If you watch 0:56 - 1:00, there are some of the subtitles there. Viewing it again, it may be the case that the 'subtitles' aren't a real language and/or that they form an integral part of the movie, rather than being added afterwards for certain markets. It's hard for me to tell!

They are Japanese subtitles.
