The first time I saw Kinji Fukasaku's "Street Mobster" was uncut on TCM. It was a great introduction to Fukasaku and he has become a top 5 director to me. Would do bad things to see all of his "Battles Without Honor and Humanity" series on the big screen in a consecutive session.

This.
 Was great when they had The Last Drive in (Joe Bob Briggs show) still.
Silent Sunday’s are good as well.

I sorta can't deal with the pre-movie bits but the archive of Joe Bob movies on the AMC app is pretty serious. They're probably all from the Shudder era but they have cranked out episodes and the movies are uncut. I watched Fulci's The Beyond like this recently since it was the only way to stream it and was cool if you don't mind scrubbing through a little bit or if you're down for Joe Bob's program.

I like most of his rants but yeah, they’re not for everyone.

Night of the Hunter is a good one.

Crazy how "Night of the Hunter" was considered a flop when it was first released, because it is so good. I guess Charles Laughton never directed another film, that masterpiece was his one and only.

Night of the Hunter was filmed in my hometown. I can see the prison from where I work.
