I really liked this Most Dangerous Game-exploitationer with an international cast and some nices 70s sleaze/terror/revenge-movie touches. The swedish VHS is uncut I believe, but cuts right to trailers after the last scene, which makes for a shorter running time.

ANIMAL FARM

UK, 1954

Beautifully animated adaption of Orwell's classic satire of Stalinism. They should have skipped the upbeat ending though.
