anagram help
i've been set by a friend of deciphering this anagram:
hurt after shave gun
it is a film title, but how many letters and words there are in the film is unknown. im guessing there is at least one "the" in there though...
any help? please?

Re: anagram help
Hmm, wonders if there is a clue in that the anagram is posed by a member of the female persuasion, and thus the type of film they might prefer

Re: anagram help
You can make at least the following 10 letter words from it
. Aftershave
. Guarantees
. Unsaturate
. Nervatures
. Restaurant
. Hearthrugs
None of which helps i'm afraid

Re: anagram help
Online anagram engines were not much help even when hinted - I thought perhap it was "avengers" or "savage".
