As time has gone by and society become more liberal about horror movies, many films from the list have been resubmitted to the BBFC. In some cases they were passed with no difficulties, but a few of the more extreme cases were passed only with cuts, only for them to resubmitted again a few years later and released completely uncut in the present day (the most notorious and high-profile case of this being ''Film/TheLastHouseOnTheLeft''). Only a handful of films from the list still remain banned, but usually because they remain so obscure that nobody has bothered to resubmit them.[[note]]Of the 39 "official" nasties, seven - ''The Beast in Heat'', ''Blood Rites'', ''Fight for Your Life'', ''Forest of Fear'', ''Last Orgy of the Third Reich'', ''Love Camp 7'', and ''The Werewolf and the Yeti'' - have never received BBFC certificates to this day (though only ''Last Orgy of the Third Reich'' and ''Love Camp 7'' have been re-submitted). ''Snuff'' was passed uncut in 2003 but has yet to receive a home video release. Seven others - ''Cannibal Apocalypse'', ''Cannibal Ferox'', ''Cannibal Holocaust'', ''Cannibal Man'', ''Exposé'', ''Faces of Death'', and ''I Spit on Your Grave'' - have only been released with cuts to scenes involving rape or unsimulated animal cruelty.[[/note]] If you are able to find and view these films (most used to be incredibly rare and obscure; what were once considered Holy Grails amongst collectors are now widely available in this age of DVD) you will probably be shocked at how tame ''some'' of them are compared to today's standards what with films the likes of ''Franchise/{{Saw}}'' and ''Film/{{Hostel}}''. In many cases, some films would have been tame even by ''those'' days' standards; often films were convicted of obscenity based on the cover[[note]]eg. the notorious cover of ''Film/TheDrillerKiller'' showing a man being [[ThisIsADrill drilled to death]][[/note]] or the GoryDeadlyOverkillTitleOfFatalDeath alone. Mary Whitehouse herself, apparently unfamiliar with the phrase "Never judge a book by its cover" or at least how it might to apply to a medium other than literature, admitted in an interview that she [[ComplainingAboutShowsYouDontWatch never watched any of the films she railed against]] because she erroneously felt the stomach-churning covers and lurid titles spoke for their content. The featuring of the words "{{Cannibal|Film}}", "{{Zombie|Apocalypse}}" or anything associated with {{Nazis|ploitation}} in the film's title almost guaranteed inclusion on the list.
