1983 film by Tommy Lee Wallace The latest widescreen Sanctuary Records Group DVD submitted in 2002 seems to be pre-cut. It is missing most of the gore!
The uncut region 2 DVD is available via
UK Amazon Review from UK Amazon: Brilliant and scary This has to be the most scary, mysterious, weird, Halloween film of the series, and it has NO Michael Myers! This film takes a break from Michael and lets just say if you haven't seen the film don't judge it! It has everything from suspense and action, to horror and romance. I would have to say that I was on the edge of my seat the ending was particularly brilliant and scary. Although this is the third film it is well directed and the acting is magnificent! This is one horror film you can't miss, get it for your collection while you can! |

88:23s | The 2008 12 rated versions (and 12A cinema release) are the
US PG-13 theatrical cut. The BBFC commented: The 12 rated version loses uses of strong language and a crude sex scene where the hero’s superpowers include an explosive ejaculation. While there is little detail of the actual sex, the sight of the ejaculation was beyond what is considered suitable at the ‘12’ category. From cuts details on IMDb: Missing scenes include, but are not limited to:

| The Hangover | uncut |
![]() |
103:24s | 2009 US/Germany comedy by Todd Philips The US Unrated Version was submitted for the 2009 Warner Blu-ray noted as the Extended Version. The BBFC explained: The Hangover is a comedy about a group of friends who lose the groom during a stag night trip to Las Vegas. This version contains material not featured in the cinema release and was classified 18 for strong sexual images. Over the film's end credits there are a series of still photographs showing the activities of the stag night. Three of these pictures show one character apparently having fellatio performed on him in a lift. In the version classified 15 for cinema exhibition, these images were pixilated. However in the version submitted for classification as a video recording, the images are unpixelated and contravene the BBFC's Guidelines on sex at 15 which state that sexual activity may be portrayed without strong detail. At 18 any more explicit images of sexual activity need to be justified by context and in this case the images are not particularly clear, are very brief, and illustrate in comic fashion the debauched nature of the stag night that the film focuses on. The film contains many jokes about various characters having sex with others including references to a woman being grossed out by semen and sight of a used condom being thrown around a car. There are also some visual images of bare breasted women dancing at a lap dancing club and a scene of full frontal male nudity in a non-sexual context when a man leaps out of a car boot with no clothes on. These sex references would have been passed at 15 as the guidelines at that category allow strong verbal references to sexual behaviour. The film also contains multiple use of strong language throughout, all of which would have been passed at 15 where BBFC Guidelines state that there may be frequent use. The film contains some comic scenes of violence, including men being hit with a metal pole and tasered by the police, as well as some verbal drug references alluding to the men inadvertently taking rohypnol and still photographs of one man snorting some cocaine.

A Compulsory cut was also required to remove sight of breath restriction caused by a woman's nose being pinched during oral penetration by dildo. The other 73:39s were pre-cut by the distributor as the uncut R18 version runs for 161:46s |
| The Happening | cut |
|
2008 US/India drama by M. Night Shyamalan The BBFC passed a pre-cut cinema version of the film 15 in 2008 with the following explanation:
THE
HAPPENING is a thriller about a couple and a young girl trying to escape
a mysterious toxin causing people to commit suicide and murder. The work
was passed '15' for frequent images of suicide and moderate bloody
injury. Thanks to Christian: Euro Cut M. Night Shyamalan has stated in an interview with a German news magazine that the German version has been cut losing shots of:
Some of these shots do turn up in the Red Band trailer and I strongly
suspect that these aren't the only shots that were cut, due to the
erratic editing other viewers already mentioned. This suggests that this may indeed not be a matter of national censorship but that 20th Century Fox might well have created a Euro-cut and is hoping to cash in on an Unrated Director's Cut DVD later on. |

No cuts mentioned by the BBFC and the running time seems to have been extended by 13s it appears that the cuts have been restored for DVD Shown uncut on Channel 5 in June 2006 adding weight to the fact that this version is uncut. From Greg: German DVD version I recently bought the German DVD with English language etc. From Christian, April 2008: German 16 vs 18 There are two versions of that DVD, one rated 16, which I guess must be the one he saw, and a completely uncut one, which is rated 18. As this version is on the "Index" (A list of media considered particularly harmful to minors), it would not be on open display in most shops, but it does exist and is freely available to adults. |

111:08s |
The 2007 cinema release and the 15 rated 2008 DVD versions were cut according to the following BBFC comment: Distributor chose to remove strong visual sex reference, sight of donkey's erect penis in close proximity to woman, to achieve a 15 classification. An 18 uncut was available to the distributor. The distributor chose to cover up the donkey’s erection with a black rectangle on screen. The BBFC explained further: THE HEARTBREAK KID is a mix of screwball, farce
and sex comedy. It was passed '15' for very strong language and sex
references. BBFC Guidelines on language at '15' state that "the strongest
terms (eg 'cunt') will only be acceptable where justified by the context".
In the context of this film, that is by a woman, in pain, to a man and with
obvious comic intent it was felt that the word could be passed at that
level. The Guidelines for sex at the same category state that "Sexual
activity may be portrayed but without strong detail. There may be strong
verbal references to sexual behaviour". The film contains several scenes
that portray strong sex play, including sado masochistic acts and
bestiality, but all presented in a comic way that avoids strong detail. |

1973 Italy/US prison drama by Rino Di Silvestro (Blackhorse Entertainment) No cuts noted to the 2005 DVD from Blackhorse The uncut region 2 DVD is available at
UK Amazon See review from IMDb: Most ridiculous prison riot ever It is a mid-70's Italian film, so about half of it is a crime thriller
with the usual car chases and violent Mafia intrigue involving a missing
load of heroin. The WIP subplot comes in when the daughter of kidnapped
Mafia boss goes undercover in a woman's prison to protect and get
information from the "new fish" (Jenny Tamburi). However, this surprisingly
complex plot still leads to the usual shower scenes, catfights, lesbian
groping, and everything else audiences have come to expect from these type
of films. |

All the girls look sweaty, stinky & dirty as they work, fight and make out with each other. That's about it for plot until they do escape and most of them get killed. Europeans love those downbeat endings. It's always nice to see Peter Lorre lookalike Luciano Pigozzi in another piece of low-rent Eurotrash like this. |

Hellraiser is a dark masterpiece from the twisted world
of Clive Barker. Based upon his novel The Hellbound Heart, Barker
takes us on a trip where people desperate for kicks search out for the
ultimate thrill. A sleaze ball named Frank manages to get his oily mitts
upon a gaudy looking Rubik's cube that he bought at a bizarre bazaar from a
greasy moth eating merchant. Frank (never the sharpest tool in the drawer)
gets more than he bargain for when he some how manages to open it up. |

The main difference is an extra scene in hell where Kirsty finds herself in a normal-looking room she associates with her childhood; a framed photograph of her parents is displayed on a bureau. She admires the photo and looks yearningly at her mother. After taking a short look around the room, she finds that Julia has replaced her mother in the photo. Suddenly, it begins to ripple and a bevy of cockroaches burst forth from the frame. Roaches crawl forth from behind the bureau, toppling it, and she screams. The uncut region 2 DVD box set

79:15s | 1990 US film by John Naughton.
The Director's Cut was passed uncut for cinema in 2003 and for the subsequent 2003 Optimum DVD The uncut region 2 DVD is available at
UK Amazon Review from UK Amazon: Fascinating character study Henry: Portrait of a serial killer is one of the most disturbing films you are ever likely to see. Not because of any extreme violence or gore, but because of it's very real premise and it having the objectivity of a documentary. This was one of the first movies of it's time to show serial killers how they really are. They aren't wise cracking geniuses such as Hannibal Lector and the like, they are very cold, detached individuals who seem indifferent to what they are doing. Henry could be anyone in the street, he could be standing next to you and you wouldn't know what he is, this film is set very much in the real world. Henry has been called a horror film or even more insultingly, a slasher movie, however it is neither, it is a fascinating character study, this is probably the most true to life depiction of a serial killer ever filmed. The movies "hero" is Henry, played brilliantly by Michael Rooker, an exterminator/handyman who drifts from town to town indulging in his uncontrollable need to murder, and he does so, almost as if he isn't aware of what he is doing is wrong. We see Henry change from polite, if slighty stupid, exterminator to his murderous alter-ego. I recommend it highly, however it certainly wont be to everyone's taste. |

78:27s | 2001 Universal Pictures DVD suffered
27s
cut by the BBFC and 21s by the distributor For the 2001 DVD release, the minor cut to the murder of the TV salesman has been waived. In addition, many of the cuts previously made to the camcorder sequence have been removed, including the re-editing of this scene. Whereas the scene was cut by 24 seconds on film and by a total of 1 minute 11 seconds (plus reordering) on video, it has now been cut by only 10 seconds in all to remove the sexualised image of the woman victim's breasts being mauled. The opening sequence showing the female corpse on the toilet, has, however, once again been deleted as per the previous UK film and video releases. However, the story is not quite that simple. The BBFC only insisted on 27 seconds of cuts (comprising 10 seconds from the camcorder sequence and 17 seconds from the 'corpse on toilet' scene), but an additional 21 seconds of cuts were in fact made by the distributor. The reason for this lies in the corpse on toilet shot. As stated above, this entire scene was cut from the previous film and video releases. On this occasion, however, the Board agreed that the beginning of the scene could be left in, showing the camera panning across the room to reveal the corpse on the toilet. The scene could then be cut after the corpse is revealed to remove only the zoom into and pan down the woman's blood stained body. However, the distributor chose to remove the entire sequence as per the previous film and video releases, rather than merely edit out the last part of the scene. That is unfortunate in one sense but it is, of course, their choice. In fact, they have probably decided to do it this way because the cut looks too obvious if made in the way we directed, whereas by removing the whole sequence what could have looked rather clumsy actually runs smoothly. |

The film was substantially edited down for non-contentious pacing reasons.

What happened to the concept of the valliant poet warrior introduced in 'Highlander' and why, or better put how has Ramirez returned, head intact? Even worse, what's all this silliness about the alien nature of the Immortals and their home planet Ziest? ABSURD!

The uncut region 1 DVD is available at US Amazon Review from IMDb This is definitely more of a sequel than Highlander
2: The Quickening was. With respect to the first Highlander this film
actually follows it pretty well. It's funny though because it totally
disregards the existence of Highlander 2. In Highlander 2 they show Brenda
Wyatt (the main girl in the first Highlander film) dying from the effects of
a depleted ozone layer, but in this film they mention that she was killed in
a car accident. Anyhow, if you pretend that Highlander 2 doesn't exist, this
actually makes a good deal of sense with regard to the original Highlander.
The only qualm I have with the film is how could Connor MacLeod think he has
"the prize" when there are still 3 more immortals out there? That doesn't
really seem to make sense, but maybe some die-hard Highlander fan can
explain it to me. |

The 2007 cinema release was originally awarded an uncut 18 certificate. The decision was rapidly reviewed when the distributors took advice, made a few cuts and resubmitted the film. The BBFC commented: Following advice by the BBFC the distributor elected to make minor cuts to the strongest moments of violence in order to achieve the required '15' certificate. And from the 2007 BBFC Annual Report: Two scenes – one in which blood pumped at some length from the wound of a dying man and another in which blood sprayed from a man whose throat had been fatally cut – fitted the Guideline description of ‘the strongest gory images’ and as such ‘unlikely to be acceptable’ at ‘15’. The distributor wanted a ‘15’ classification and so opted to remove the focus on sadism and copious bloodshed in the wake of wounds in both sequences to secure a ‘15’ classification. |

a game-movie and think "well that was pretty damn good!" but this here is
one where I did. I'm a pretty big fan of the Hitman games with Blood Money
being one of my favourites of all time and when I first heard that Timothy
Olyphant had been chosen to play the notorious anti-hero Agent 47, I had
pretty much written the film off completely as I really didn't think he fit
the part well at all. I've now watched the film after a friend's strong
recommendation and have been proved completely wrong by this casting
decision as I now think there would be no one better for the role. The
character is confident and has no feelings, just like in the games and
Olyphant pulls this off perfectly. Dougray Scott also plays an excellent
part in his role as the Interpol agent, in fact this is one of the best
performances I've ever seen him in. |

98:04s | 2001 UK thriller by Nick Hamm (Pathe) From imdb The film was cut by the distributor to qualify for a "15" rating in the UK. The cuts include the re-dubbing of the word 'cunt'. Ironically, the 'deleted scenes' section on the UK DVD release is rated '18', therefore earning the DVD an '18' overall, even though the film is only a '15'. The same version of the film was released worldwide, so an uncut version/director's cut DVD sadly isn't available anywhere. It has been suggested that the Dutch release is uncut. |

82:48s | 1981 Italian horror film by Lucio Fulci (Arrow Film
Distributors) All previous BBFC cuts were waived when resubmitted in 2009 The uncut region 2 DVD is available at
UK Amazon
for release on 29th June 2009 Review from US Amazon: Dread and Fear This is the third in a loose trilogy of films by Italian master of the macabre Lucio Fulci set in New England that evoke the uncanny and cosmic terrors of H.P. Lovecraft. The other two films City of the Living Dead and The Beyond are quite a bit better than House by the Cemetery, but that doesn't mean this film is totally without merit. At times Fulci succeeds very well in creating an atmosphere of dread and fear, and the film is not without some subtle moments of terror, due mainly to an eerie soundtrack and a couple of creepy kids. But fans of Fulci and Italian horror cinema in general are not interested in the type of subtle scares one might find in English ghost stories; instead his films are marked by unusual levels of graphic violence. Although this film is not without its moments (throats ripped out, maggot ridden bodies and decapitation), the violence seems quite muted compared to other Fulci films. Fulci is perhaps aiming too strongly for the atmosphere of Lovecraft, and subsequently forgets to invest in his film the graphic and absurdly violent scenes which have afforded his work a cult following. The film as is usually the case with Fulci makes little sense and is full of continuity errors, its difficult to know whether this is down to bad editing, or an intentional effort to create an uncanny world in which time and space are confused, personally I prefer the latter possibility. There has always been something dream like and hallucinatory about Italian horror cinema and this film doesn't disappoint on that level. |

Distribution) Same cuts to the cinema and video versions. The BBFC stated: Cuts required to three instances of real animal cruelty (horses made to fall using techniques likely to result in serious injury). This Chinese martial arts extravaganza, contained four horsefalls in a chase scene set in a forest. Three of the falls appeared to have been achieved using cruel techniques, including use of trip wires. The production company contended that precautions, such as the placing of mattresses on the forest floor hidden by leaves and sand, the dampness of the land surface and the use of horse trainers and soft ropes, removed any element of cruelty. The sequence was shown to an expert veterinarian, experienced in supervising filmed animal action, who considered and rejected the film maker’s arguments. The three cruel and dangerous horsefalls were therefore removed. |

1974 UK horror film by Pete Walker (Anchor Bay) The cuts were restored for the 1995 Redemption Films video and hence also the 2005 Anchor Bay DVD The uncut region 2 DVD is available at UK Amazon Review from IMDb I'm shocked that this doesn't get mentioned more
often! Pete Walker's film is both a sleazy seventies exploitation classic
and a striking indictment of the justice system. The film serves as a
warning against what would happen if private institutions were given the
power to decide what is apt punishment for certain crimes, and the
dedication of the film to all those who believe in capital punishment shows
Pete Walker's love for controversy. The plot takes place in an old house,
which doubles up as a private institution ran by a senile judge, his
unforgiving partner; the female warden of the prison and two equally vile
female orderlies. They punish girls for crimes committed that weren't, in
their eyes, properly punished by the corrupt British courts. The film benefits from a handful of great performances; the best of which coming from Barbara Markham, who gives a powerhouse performance in the role of the head of the institution. Frightmare star Sheila Keith, and Dorothy Gordon are the orderlies, while Patrick Barr is brilliantly understated in his role as the ineffective Justice of the prison. Penny Irving is the young French victim at the centre of the story; but her performance is brought down by her ridiculous French accent! On the whole, this is a vastly underrated and under seen seventies gem that must be seen by anyone who gets the chance to see it! |

1982 US/Japan horror by Kevin Connor The BBFC cut 34s from the 1986 Warner video:
The uncut region 1 DVD is available at
US Amazon Review from UK Amazon: Really graphic start The movie kicks off with the wife of a samauri doing the dirty with one of his students & guess what? he catches them at it & strikes them dead with his sword then commits harikiri on himself, really graphic start! That scene was 142 years earlier now we go to present day japan . a couple & their daughter stay in this rented house & are told it is haunted . They don't seem to mind but visions of the former occupants appear the wife (Susan George!) has an affair with her husbands friend, Doug Mclure & it turns nasty when he finds out! The love making scenes go on far too long ,is this soft porn or horror? I ask myself. But then the horrible scene when the giant crabs scare their daughter stupid were shocking, the DVD was not rated, I could see why when this girl of about ten was screaming climbing up a tree to escape these nasty big monsters! The film comes full circle when the husband & friend fight over the wife & the ghosts take them over turning it into a crazy martial arts blood bath! I wont say any more youll have to see it! |

to be! I have always found it to be a light hearted dark comedy with
repeat watching appeal. |

UK Amazon
for release on 9th October 2009 Review from US Amazon: Perfect East meets West action movie One of Lambert's best films, The Hunted finds Paul Racine (Lambert), a New Yorker on business in Japan, who meets the lovely Kirina (Joan Chen) in a bar late one evening and goes back to her place for a night of passion. But when Paul wants to continue seeing her, Kirina sadly tells him that he can never see her again. Unknown to Paul, Kirina is marked for death by the boss, Nemura (James Saito) who hires the cunning and ruthless ninja, Kinjo (John Lone), to carry out his deeds. But a mistake in door keys causes Paul to return to her apartment only to witness her demise at the hands of Kinjo, who fatally wounds Paul, who sees him without his mask. Wth a satisfying climax, this film not only has plenty of action to satisfy all, but the added bonus of fine acting by the cast (Lambert, Lone, Chen, Harada, Shimada) which makes it a most enjoyable film to watch again and again. Plus you can't beat the music, which adds another layer all by itself. I really loved this film, seeing it in the movie theater, buying the video, laserdisc and finally the DVD. The Hunted is the perfect East meets West action movie. |

104:17s | 1971 UK drama by Don Medford (Warner Home Video) The BBFC similarly cut the X rated 1971 cinema release and the 1986 Warner video by 1:43s From cuts details on IMDb:
See cuts details from dvdcompare.net In the US, the film was originally cut before its release in 1971, to
achieve an 'R' certificate from the MPAA. The uncut version of the film was
also submitted to the BBFC, who demanded 1min 43s of edits that were
somewhat different to those required by the MPAA. |

75:34s | 1996 Canadian/German film by Rick Castro & Bruce La Bruce Additional cuts were required when submitted for video in 1997 (Dangerous to Know) and 1999 (Millivres)
The uncut region 1 DVD is available via
UK Amazon Review from US Amazon: Rent it even if you're not gay! Bruce La Bruce sure knows all about tragic
Hollywood suicides. I'm tempted to order his books now. The sex scenes are
certainly not as graphic as "regular" gay porno. What you imagine is much
worse than what you actually see on screen. It's not as if there are any
close-up penetration shots. Perhaps the razor blade scene with the
"Versace Model" (don't want to give away the gag), made me cringe the
most. |
