103:26s | 1981 US documentary video by Conan Le Cilaire The 1983 International Trading video was passed a8 after 2:19s of cuts The BBFC sites records the following statement: Compulsory cuts required to sight of fighting dogs and monkey being cruelly beaten to death. The BBFC have also clarified exactly which part of the monkey eating scene has been cut. The part of the scene that shows the brains being eaten (out of an obviously fake rubber head) has NOT been cut. What we HAVE cut is the material leading up to that in which a clearly real and clearly terrified monkey ("goaded to fear and fury" as the Animals Act puts it) is brought to the table in a special 'monkey eating' contraption and is then bashed on the head. It seems entirely possible that the head bashing was done with rubber hammers and the monkey came to no harm. However, the monkey was clearly - at least in the short term - restricted in a cage/head clamp and terrified and this is prohibited by law.

UK Amazon Review from US Amazon: Quite a reputation Faces of Death has quite a reputation, but it seems that very few people have actually seen it. Needless to say, there's no way the film will live up to its own hype. The narration is predictable, all the scenes involving human death are faked, and the final twenty minutes are basically newsreel footage, which we've all seen elsewhere. The film runs around 105 minutes, which is way too long for something of this nature. If the film was cut to 68-80 minutes, as most exploitation films are, all we would lose is some bland narration and a lot of World War 2 footage. However, the film is now a cultural artifact and it's most definitely worth seeing, provided you're a fan of horror movies, exploitation films, or bizarre fringe relics. Even though it isn't really a strong film itself, its influence makes it worth viewing. The only real death you see is in the beginning where we see all sorts of animals slaughtered. It's not as bad as it sounds though. The animals weren't killed for the film, but rather as part of the routine slaughtering that happens everyday. I realize that this doesn't make much difference to some people, but at least the killing was nothing out of the ordinary. |

106:34s | 2009 US action film by Justin Lin The BBFC cut the cinema release by 3s when submitted in 2009: Distributor chose to make one cut to sight of man having his head slammed into a wall resulting in a follow-on shot of the man's broken and bloodied nose in order to attain a 12A category. An uncut 15 was available. Thanks to Gavin: Fast Rethink The film appeared on the BBFC site for a week or so with a 15 rating. That entry seems to have now disappeared. Presumably the distributor decided to make a last minute change. The BBFC explained their rating: Extended Detail Fast & Furious is the fourth in the series
of action/ car chase films. This time the lead character and his federal
agent adversary team up to avenge the death of a friend by drug traffickers.
The film was passed ‘12A’ for strong action violence. The uncut region 1 DVD is available at

UK Amazon Review from US Amazon: Last for Jet Li Fearless is inspired by the life of Huo Yuan
Jia, real-life Chinese martial arts master. Jet Li plays this legendary
figure, whose martial arts style and fearless fight helped the people in
China regain their pride in the early 20th century when China was
intimidated and humiliated by the growing Western and Japanese powers. |

99:22s | The 2006 cinema release and subsequent Universal DVD are
noted as the UK Theatrical version which is the same as the US unrated
version. See article from dvdcompare.net Director Ronny Yu reduced the length of 'Fearless' from 143 minutes to 103 minutes to speed up the pacing of the movie. The subplot with Michelle Yeoh has been cut. In the original cut the story of Huo Yuanjia is told by Miss Yang an Olympic official. In the early part of the movie Huo Yuanjia is in exile in a Thai village and to save a boy from being punished for stealing an ox, he is forced into a match with a local boxer, played by Somluck Kamsing. Ronny Yu made the cut after audiences from an internal screening criticized the film for being too slow and the Olympic sub-story being too irrelevant to the main plot.

1970 US drama by Jerry Gross The BBFC cut the 1971 cinema release. The original running time was 82:55s The uncut region 1 DVD is available at US Amazon See review from IMDb: Eurotrash On the surface, this looks like one of those erotic 60s art-house flicks which were imported by American entrepreneurs solely for their sex content. It even possesses the de rigueur subtext exposing the moneyed class for its decadence and its exploitation of the naive masses. However, it's all a scam -- it was intentionally made in Puerto Rico by these self-same American entrepreneurs to resemble a European flick -- and quite successfully so. The film is well enough constructed and filmed to be watchable, with plenty of nudity, though it's overly melodramatic and dully predictable for long stretches. As well, there are a couple of psychedelic sequences for Swinging Sixties buffs. The star Angelique is quite a dish and is not averse to shedding her threads at the least provocation. At the same time, the filmmakers strive to offend conservative viewers (in true pseudo-Euro style) by including a lascivious hypocritical priest among the sordid proceedings, by using a soda bottle as an erotic device, and by being a bit unsubtle about Angelique's relationship with her housecat. |

The film La Comtesse aux Seins Nus exists in at least three distinctly different versions: Erotikill, Erotikiller, Female Vampire, and La Comtesse Noir [The Dark Countess] are the R-rated versions which retain the violence, but excludes the hardcore footage. Les Avaleuses [The Swallowers] and The Loves of Irina are sex versions editions with most of the violence excluded. Jaccula and La Comtesse aux Seins Nus are supposedly completely uncut, with all scenes of sex and violence intact. |

UK Amazon Review from US Amazon: Little Gem I saw this in the theaters when it first came out in the 80s, not expecting much, but then - BAM! - this nasty little gem of a thriller delivers thrills in spades. JOHN GLOVER creates one of the most chilling, yet hilarious, villains in film history - and the film's most infamous sequence - the videotape replay of Cindy's snuff-movie murder that Glover forces Scheider to watch in horror SITTING THE SAME CHAIR WHERE SHE WAS KILLED! - still never fails to disturb the viewer. Frankenheimer directs how the best do: so seamless and subtle and unobtrusive, you never notice him tightening the screws right up until a white-knuckle climax. C'mon, guys, get with it! Once you see 52 PICK-UP, you will never forget it. |

US Amazon Review from US Amazon: Weak Slasher The Final Terror wasn't a bad movie but it was a bad slasher movie. Nary a drop of blood, ok maybe a drop or 2 but WEAK kills. Great cast .Darrel Hannah, Rachel Ward and Joe Pantoliano were virtual unknowns at the time and lend to the credibility of the cast today. It reminded me somewhat of the movie Southern Comfort because of the booby traps and atmosphere although Southern Comfort was highly superior. This could have been fantastic, if there were BLOOD! |

In Vixen, the issue was marital bliss and touched on the concept of partner swapping. A similar notion is touched on in Finders Keepers in marital fidelity, and promoting the concept that no one goes unpunished. It contains the nudity and light humor of his other flicks. It's not one of his more known films, but is worth checking out even if only once. The movie actually has a good plot to it, with senses of drama and a sense of urgency that keeps the pace going from start to finish. |

Spoiled US President's son slips away to a shopping mall to meet a mentally disturbed villain with a gun. The BBFC found this confrontation too violent for the target audience and extensively re-edited the scene with the following justification: First Kid had to be cut to reduce the sense of threat as the hero was subjected to a psychotic gun attack in a shopping mall. The terrorisation of a child character in a conventially safe environment was felt to be a violation of trust, as was the unexpected onset of violence so close to the end of the film. |

Who would have known that one of Bruce Lee's greatest
cinematic achievements could sound and, especially, look as good as it does
in this recent DVD edition? Considering that this movie, much in the same
way as the other early martial arts pictures that Lee made for Golden
Harvest, was typically shot on a relatively low budget, with poor to average
film stock being used, this restored version is nothing short of miraculous.
The Fortune Star print makes it look like it was shot a few months ago, as
it looks as clear as it probably never was when it first came out in March
of 1972. |

being gore and sex hidden under a thin shroud of message, Flavia the Heretic
has a legitimate message (absurd as it might be at times), but gets grouped
in with the sex and gore movies that the Italians are so famous for. |

UK Amazon Review from US Amazon: Perverse This is one of the most violent, perverse, and laugh-out-loud (intentionally) funny versions of the Frankenstein myth. It's also one of my favorite movies and, as far as I'm concerned, the best film to come out of the Andy Warhol-Paul Morrisey collaborations of the 60s and 70s. Udo Kier is astounding as the mad Baron Frankenstein, Arno Juerging is great as his idiot assistant Otto, and Monique Van Vooren holds her own as Frankenstein's wife-sister, whose insatiable sexual appetite is fed by hunky Joe Dallesandro. This film is NOT for people who are squeamish. The sex and violence is all of such a perverse nature that it isn't the kind of thing you want to sit down and watch with grandma. It's filled with campy humor and super-gory FX (imagine it as it premiered in 3-D!). But, in spite of the usual Warhol-crowd tomfoolery, there is a very real sense of quality to the proceedings. Gorgeously photographed, with a sumptuous score and fine period detail, this is a little too well-mounted to be written off as simply a camp comedy. |

This contributed to the wind up of the frenzied press and the video got added to the video nasties list in March 1984.

85:41s | 1982 US action film by James Fargo (MGM/UA) The cinema version was cut back in 1982 and the only video version was cut in 1986.
The uncut region 1 DVD is available at US Amazon Review from Amazon US Forced Vengeance is about much raw strength and nice evil characters. Real characters, not the usual martial arts actors of the nineties. It's great. So, the fights here are not dozens of minutes but a few hard hits. And to see, how these hits work, give it a brutal flavor. The colors in the movie are sometimes neon lights, sometimes a very hard contrast to blood Forced Vengeance is about 60% dialogue and 40% fights / violence. I would say it is pretty good. Plus Joy is a cutie. Plus it has good music. Plus the letter characters for the cast are really stylish (note that in the making of a film even the fonts have to be chosen). Chuck Norris is not there to make a good movie actor but to hit damn hard, and he does. |

Four Flies on Grey Velvet aka

cut |
|
1971 Italy/France crime film by Dario Argento The cinema release was cut by the BBFC in 1973. The unrated DVD is available at US Amazon for release on 24th February 2009 Review from IMDb: Argento's rarest giallo Undoubtedly Dario Argento's rarest giallo, Four Flies on Grey Velvet is none the less the weakest in his Animal Trilogy (which also includes The Bird with the Crystal Plumage and Cat O'Nine Tails), but it is still a pretty entertaining entry in the giallo genre. Argento demonstrates some very creative camera work in this one, one of my favorite shots come from inside a guitar. Furthermore, he keeps a nice and steady pace, there is very little downtime in this one and Ennio Morricone gives a good, if not great score. It also boasts some inventive deaths. Now, Four Flies on Grey Velvet certainly has its flaws. There is a bit too much comedy in for my tastes, which I feel distracted from the horror. Also, Morriconne's score is underutilized and there isn't enough nudity. Overall Four Flies on Grey Velvet is good, but not great. Only Argento fans should go out of there way to find it, but I am a huge Argento fan, so it was worth it in my opinion. |

91:18s | 1980 US film by Sean S Cunningham (Warner Home Video) The full uncut version was submitted for an uncut video certificate in 2003.
The uncut region 2 DVD is available at
UK Amazon See also pictorial cuts on movie-censorship.com See review from IMDb: A Slasher Star is Borm Friday the 13th must be one of the biggest mysteries in cinema. Although it's a long way from being a good movie, its success and influence is unnameable ( and even unbelievable ). Don't get me wrong...I'm not at all saying that Friday the 13th is a terrible film or not even worth a watch but - let's face it - the plot idea is pretty dumb, the acting and directing are far below average and they haven't fully used the options of setting and location they had. The make-up effects ( by the master Tom Savini himself ) are excellent, but that alone isn't really enough to create a legendary horror movie in my opinion. I suppose the story is pretty much known by everyone know and I even think the identity of the mysterious killer of this episode isn't that much of a mystery anymore. Without any shame, I even admit that Friday the 13th and ALL its sequels are a guilty pleasure of mine. I'll never reckon them as good - or even decent - efforts in the genre, but I'm always up for a little bit of brainless gore slashing. And that's what these series are made for...pure entertainment !! So, in a way, they succeeded after all. They never try to give a thoughtful message to the viewer or something. There are just dumb-looking teenagers being slaughtered...the more the merrier. |

90:44s | Previously released in a pre-cut format The film was cut by about 10s for a US R rating. This cut version was submitted for the 1980 UK cinema release and pre-VRA video. No further cuts were required by the BBFC for the 1987 video release.
The cut scenes are available as RealPlayer clips at Dark Angel's Relam of Horror In Tom Dewe Matthew's Censored book, and elsewhere, a still of the first female victim (in the prologue) with a machete through her throat is printed. In the film we do not see her murder, the screen instead giving way to the title. This scene was, presumably, filmed but whether it was cut for a USA cinema rating seems confusing. It has been reported to me that the second cut in the list is restored on the 1995 release of the video from Warner Home Video (Terrorvision) Catalog No SO11172. |

The US R rated version was submitted to the BBFC but this had already been heavily cut to avoid an MPAA X rating. The New Blood was the most heavily cut movie by the MPAA, losing about four minutes. It was considered the most violent of the series. See article from ifmagazine.com: An old VHS copy of Buechler's work print surfaced, and you get to see how much cooler this version would have been if the gore remained. The infamous sleeping bag scene goes on much longer, all the deaths have extra blood (including a killer head crush scene) and there's even a deleted coda on a boat that should have been kept in. See article from forum.dvdtalk.com Director John Carl Buechler said: Dialogue within scenes was cut. And certainly almost every single punch-line to every stalk and pay-off was trimmed considerably. I mean when you see the axe jump-cut into that lady's head, and when you see Jason smack that guy up the chin with the axe. I mean the shots are just noticeably missing. I mean there were some cool shots we did. But not since Tom Savini's time have people been allowed to put stuff like that on screen. |

(Shameless) The DVD was passed uncut in 2008. This is an extended version with additional footage. The uncut region 2 DVD is available at UK Amazon Review from IMDb: Eurocult The Frightened Woman is a curious piece of Eurocult,
much along the same lines as the films that Jess Franco was churning out
around the same time. The film very much captures the feel of late sixties
to early seventies European cinema and the atmosphere is definitely the
film's best asset. It's lucky that the film will to appeal to fans of this
sort of film too, as the idea behind the central plot line is pretty damn
ridiculous! |

A pretty lame horror flick about a scientist's
attempts to make people immortal. This is a bad movie, featuring several
funny parts. I particularly liked the scene of two women in the hospital
talking, when out of nowhere the policeman narrator's voice is dubbed over
the conversation. It's just sloppily put together. |

The uncut region 1 DVD is available at
US Amazon Review from US Amazon: Nastiest family squabble A Takashi Miike is always worth looking out for, and this one was highly
anticipated. It's one of his earlier Yakuza movies, but still very Miike in
approach. As unemotional as the Japanese can be, "Fudoh" turns into the nastiest family squabble since "Medea". Just when you think the film can't get any weirder, it's just getting started. Murders are often accompanied by rivers of blood. The scenes in the children's assassin training camp are hysterical. I lost count on the number of decapitations. |

92:01s | Previously cut when submitted by Made in Hong Kong in 1998 The cinema version was cut by 8s but the first video version suffered 34s of cuts Various sightings of the dreaded butterfly knife have been removed from the following scenes:
Thanks to Mark: The Mei Ah DVD is in fact the uncut version as rumoured. A number of instances of strong violence - such as stabbings, bullet impacts, blood spurts - have been restored for the DVD. The sleeve claims that the film is Cat-II, but that rating applies to the censored cinema version, and not the DVD. There was a gory scene pre-cut by the distributors who felt that director Lam had gone too far with the ketchup: it apparently showed Simon Yam sucking on an eyeball that Anthony Wong has cut out from a victim's socket! I don't believe this footage has ever been seen, so isn't really applicable when talking about an 'uncut' version. As it stands, the Mei Ah is as uncut as we're going to get. Amazon Review Full Contact release on DVD was long overdue, and now, in this finely presented package, it has been worth the wait. By far one of the most brutal Hong Kong Gangster movies. Whilst the gun battles are not
quite on a par with John Woo's, as they lack both the scale and the
choreography, Ringo Lam ensures that he makes up for it in style. Using the
bullets eye view twice in the film, Lam delivers an intensity to his film
making that has little comparison elsewhere. With eye catching
cinematography, an awesome soundtrack than really delivers the goods, and
one of Chow Yun Fat's greatest performances, this is a truly must have film. |

91:08s | 1981 US video by Tobe Hooper (Freemantle
Enterprise) Passed 15 uncut when submitted in 2007
The uncut region 2 DVD is available at
UK Amazon Review from UK Amazon: Good News Bad News The Good News: This is an effectively underrated slasher entry. One of it's most impressive feats is that it gives us a nice carnival atmosphere with some interesting sights. The setting is the best thing about this, as great pains is taken to turn the early part into setup, and this does create a great atmosphere for later on in the film. By taking a trip through the garish freak-show, which includes on exhibit a two-headed cow and a deformed, bottled fetus, the mechanized fun-house creatures, the deformed inbred monster, the creepy surreal barkers and more, the groundwork is laid for some real fun. The attention to detail he gives the carnival at the beginning is amazing, even the stuff that is going on in the background. This is obviously thrilled by the colors, textures and shadows of the carnival and capably turns the place into a menacing and alien environment. Even the carnival workers themselves are weird and seedy.
The film's main positive point, though, is the
extremely great showdown at the end. There's rarely been a better one in the
annals of the slasher genre, starting inside a hall of mirrors and wandering
through the back-rooms, down into the bowels of carnival, finally ending up
in the machinery room. It's quite impressive and really stands out in the
field. The stalking inside the fun-house generates some great tension as
well, including a couple crashing through doors and some real surprise
pop-ups from the other carnival attractions. |

US Amazon Review from US Amazon: Great 'Bad' Movie Except the 2 actors from Texas Chainsaw Massacre this movie stars people that look like your next door neighbors (from the 80's). Some preppy-new waver-Frats are initiating all night in the worst part of town when they piss off an armored clad killer-psycho with throwing stars and claws in charge of a gang of anti-nuke-grunge-new wavers. I liked it a lot because once the action starts it doesn't stop also there are some decent punk rock tunes and impressive gore scenes. The bad acting, 80's attire, and goofy dialog only add to the fun. |
