All looks good except that it is a Nordic release, not Dutch - main entry and cuts section need amending.

Although Pink Flamingo supplies all of Scandinavia and beyond, it is specifically a Danish company.

Thanks Brent.
On the back of the case it says it is a subdivision of 'Another World Entertainment', which according to Wikipedia is indeed Danish.
I had assumed, perhaps wrongly, that all Nordic releases were listed as Nordic in the database.

I would still argue for using the correct country title: there is no reason not to and three good reasons against doing so:
For starters, the comparison layout states "Country", not "Informal Collective Region" or similar.
What if another, non-Danish, Scandinavian country also releases this title? This must have happened for other entries in the database; they can't all be listed as the same (non-) country!
Thirdly, these distinctions may not seem important to us non-Scandinavians, but it's kind of a big deal to the people who live there. After all, there are many other countries where blurring such distinctions is actually quite offensive to their inhabitants.

Most of our Another World titles are listed as Scandinavia with additional companies listed after like "Blu-ray B Scandinavia - Another World Entertainment / Night Visions Distribution / Njutafilms". I will keep it as Scandinavia and add Njutafilms since they also have an edition.
Any info on the Dutch Encore edition which Kultvideo lists as having English subtitles?

I don't personally have any info on it, other than that it seems to be available on Amazon, and none of the user reviews mention a lack of subtitles, which they probably would if there weren't any.
As a separate matter, when searching for this title here, I did notice that the DVD and Blu-ray entries for the Jess Franco movie "Countess Perverse" have as one of its aliases "Le Comtesse Perverse", which should be "La Comtesse Perverse" as it is feminine, and as listed on IMDb:
