Video Nasties: The Definitive Guide Part 2 (2014)

Looking for a copy of Video Nasties: The Definitive Guide Part 2, specifically one that includes the contents of all 3 discs :

Disc 1 : Draconian Days

Disc 2-3 : The Section 3 List (looks like A-L is on disc 2 and M-Z on disc 3)

Had a look about but have come up empty handed, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Just wanted to share this as I've not seen anyone report a similar experience.

I picked up a copy of Shout's People Under the Stairs 4K back in March, and have only just recently attempted to play it, as I'd not seen reports of the region lock issue until after purchasing it and I wanted to try the Stop/Top Menu trick to see if it worked (FYI I live in the UK and I'm using a player purchased in the UK).

I put the disc in and waited for it to read it and bring up a message regarding region lock...and the disc just played. It went straight through the FBI piracy disclaimer, the Shout logo, and straight to the menu, then played the film from there without any issue.

I ejected it, turned off the player, and tried again to see if it was a fluke, but sure enough, the film played without any upset over region.

Full disclosure, my player is not a region free one to my knowledge, it's a Panasonic UB820 that I bought new from Richer Sounds, and I've made no changes to it since purchasing it. The copy of People Under the Stairs I bought off of a trusted seller I frequent a lot on eBay, and the box and discs certainly look legitimate (the picture and sound quality certainly do, too!).

I'm going to raise a query with Shout and see if they've addressed the region lock on any recent prints of the film, but thought I'd share this experience here first just in case anyone outside of region A had been eyeing it up.
