• The Beast in Heat

11 minutes of pre-cuts have been restored for a cinema certificate gained in February 2001.

All sex scenes are now intact but there are still a couple of scenes missing (not for censorship reasons). Thanks to Marc for pointing these out. See www.vidmarc.demon.co.uk/mondo-erotico/index_boro.html for further details

1. Missing scene: Ifany sneeking into the bathroom, after Mathurin has been groomed by his father, in order to stuff clumps of Mathutin's hair into an envelope.
2. Missing scene: Ifany bringing the envelope of Mathurin's hair into Duc Rammondelo de Balo's office, where he is dismissed and the Duc sniffs at it.
3. Missing scene: The cook sets the table while singing, prior to the farcical meal that the Mathurin, his father and the guests attend.
4. Better news is that the scene near the end of the film, when the Cardinal arrives at the family home and tutors his underling on the perils of bestiality, is included

This version will no doubt appear on video from Nouveaux Pictures some time later this year.

Cut when submitted in 2005 with the following BBFC statement:

Cuts required to remove scenes of sexual assaults which eroticised and/or endorsed the activity, and images encouraging an interest in underage sex. With these cuts made an R18 was available to the distributor. Distributor chose to make further cuts to explicit detail of sexual activity in order to achieve an 18.

I wonder if the definition of underage sex being used by the BBFC is 16 or 18. Sex is perfectly legal at 16 it just cannot be shown on video

Synopsis & review from www.hentaineko.com

A deadly sex ninja trained in the carnal arts, Miko is hot to deal out heavy martial arts mistreatments to any demon who threatens her. But when the monsters target her sexy sister for a little family fun, Miko really sees red! Who is the stronger sexual slayer, our hedonistic heroine or the preternatural perverts of the underworld?

I love La Blue Girl. And c'mon, isn't Miko Mido the cutest thing ever to sport a hair ribbon? If it's wildly over-the-top excess you're after and with tongue pressed firmly in cheek, then look no further. In fact, La Blue Girl returns pitches itself somewhere between the silly, sexy outrageousness of La Blue Girl while also giving us a coherent plot a la Lady Blue.

Did I mention the animation? Absolutely gorgeous is the most appropriate way I can think of describing the visuals. Far, far better than the vast majority of hentai releases, I was, to say the least, very impressed. The naughtiness level seems to have shifted up a notch or two from the rather subdued (in my opinion) Lady Blue.

I wonder if the children being referred to were in fact depicted as over the age of consent.

• Nu er dang zi qiang
• Supercop: Female

Same cut version for cinema and video

Cut by the BBFC in 2001 for both cinema and video versions. The cuts were justified by the BBFC as follows:

For the cinema version: Company chose to significantly reduce sight of a flick knife in several scenes, removing in particular material which appeared to glamorise the weapon , in order to achieve a 12. An uncut 15 was available to the distributor. The distributor also sought and was given advice during post-production which resulted in a reduction in violence in the final fight sequence (including the complete removal of a headbutt) prior to formal submission.

For the video version: Cuts required to glamorising shots of flick knife (including sight and/or sound of knife opening , a close shot of the knife covered in blood, and clear sight of knife being twirled) and to sight of a headbutt delivered by heroine, to take account of the large, young, 12-14 year old audience which has already been created by the similarly cut film version.

I have also been informed that the BBFC removed Lara's   final deadly throat chop to the villian, Powell from the cinema version. It is bizarrely restored in the video and DVD

Cut in 2006 with the following BBFC comment: The cuts were Cuts for Category. Company chose to remove images of unsimulated sexual activity (in this instance sight of oral genital contact and liquid resembling semen on a performer's genitals)

Cut when submitted in 2006 with the following BBFC statement: During a scene in which a dog is shot, the animal reacts as if it has been hit by an object, knocking it to the ground. The distributor was unable to provide information about how the scene was filmed without involving cruelty, so a compulsory cut was made.

Cut when submitted in 2006 with the following BBFC comment: Cut was required to remove sight of dog apparently being shot.

• Lassie's Greatest Adventure

Review from Amazon US

Last House on Dead End Street was a movie that achieved popularity due to the fact that it was put in the same breath as Last House on the Left by Wes Craven, but that's about where the similarities end.

Roger Watkins directs and stars as a madman who is released from prison and vows to take revenge on society or so he says. However he instead chooses to kill his former friends and cohorts who may have stole some of his film ideas. He then plots an absurd plot where he makes the best snuff films. Yes that's part of the urban legend, but this is not a snuff film. What it is though is one disturb, at times hilarious spoof of other wannabee snuff films.

What the movie is missing is the fact that in Last House on the Left we don't have any reversal of fortune between the victim and murderers, instead the movie chooses one direction and stays there, so nothing is really a surprise.

• Krug & Company
• The Men's Room
• Night of vengeance
• Sex Crime of the Century

The BBFC waived their cuts when the DVD was submitted in 2008

Blue Underground released the video after 31s of BBFC cuts in 2002.

The BBFC justified their cuts as follows:

Cuts required to humiliation of woman forced to urinate, violent stabbing assault on woman and removal of her entrails, and woman's chest carved with a knife.

An appeal against the cuts proved unsuccessful.

Further video releases from Anchor Bay in 2003 have been edited differently but have retained the BBFC mandated cuts

Interestingly the UK Anchor Bay release includes a DVD extra showing the deleted footage as a series of stills. (BBFC censorship only applies to video material)

Review from imdb

While I think that people tend to get a bit hyperbolic when they talk about The Last House on the Left, I do think it's a fairly good film, especially given what the filmmakers were trying to do and considering their lack of experience, the era and the budget. Also, despite a filmic precursor, it just may be the earliest example of the horror subgenre of "brutal, realist tragedy" (that's more a description than a name, but I haven't spent much time trying to come up with a catchy moniker). However, it has flaws that would be difficult to overlook in a "distanced" (rather than "objective" or "unbiased", neither of which I think are possible) assessment of the film.

But again, focusing on that amounts to hype now, and shouldn't be taken too seriously, lest it lead to inflated expectations. Just as surprising on a first viewing is that The Last House on the Left has an intermittent goofy sense of humor and a "groovy" attitude that is firmly mired in the early 1970s. The two policemen are really comic relief characters (and very funny at that), but there is also a lot of humor surrounding the criminal quartet--this almost becomes a "black comedy" at times. These sensibilities even extend to the music, which has a frequent hillbilly edge and lyrics that supply ex-positional material. Surprisingly, Hess, who plays Krug, wrote the music.

The Last House on the Left is not suitable for cinema exhibition because of the explicit and sadistic sexual violence contained in the film. This is the second time that The Last House on the Left has been refused classification by the BBFC. The present version is some four minutes longer than the version offered in 1974, but is still several minutes shorter than the original uncut version. Although the recent resubmission was of a cut version of the film, it was still found to contain elements which are unacceptable under the Board's published Guidelines. The Board asked for further cuts to remove images of the horrific stripping, rape and knife murder of two women. The option of making additional cuts was offered to the distributor in May 1999 and in September they confirmed that the film would be resubmitted with further cuts. After much delay it is now clear that the distributor has declined the option to proceed further. The Board is therefore unable to classify the film in this version.

Review from US Amazon

I agree that while this film borrowed heavily from Last House on the Left, Night Train Murders is the better of the two. Good production values, excellent cinematography, an Ennio Morricone score, decent acting and a tight script, set Night Train Murders above Last House and other films of this type.

The first third of the film introduces the main characters and then gets them on a train (the night before Christmas) that is full of odd, quirky travelers - most of whom seem to be prone to indulging in one perversion or another.

The "defilement" section of the film is a gripping, harrowing affair that escalates in viciousness before climaxing in a very brutal fashion.

The final act does not live up to the scenes that precede it.  I was expecting a truly grisly and horrific conclusion. However, the director's desire to keep from glamorizing violence is probably why the ending feels somewhat restrained.

38:08s pre-cut and then a further 8:52s cut by the BBFC

Downgraded to 15 and cuts waived when submitted in 2004

The uncut region 2 DVD is available at UK Amazon

When the expedition party is attacked by the thugs right after they set out on the travel, the last of the baddies is killed by a sort of death grip, apparantly punctuating his jugular vein. This is shown in both the uncut, the old US edit and the US trailer! In the UK version you merely see the guy drop to the ground.

When the vampire lords later raid the village, the uncut version shows two girls being dragged out of their homes and stripped, showing their breasts. In the UK version we only see this happen to one of the girls very briefly.

Incidently the abbreviated USA release version of this film, The Seven Brothers Meet Dracula, shows this whole sequence three times, once with the image reversed. As well as removing nearly 20mins of exposition, this version re-structures the film's narrative in order to cram a number of action scenes (some of which are shown two or three times) into the film as early as possible. In addition to the narrative deletions you mention, the opening credits sequence now unfolds against stills of scenes of the vampires which actually occur about 15 mins into the original film, the flashback structure of the old man avenging his daughters death by killing the 7th golden vampire has been removed and this is now simply an unexplained action sequence near the beginning of the film before Van Helsing appears rather than contained within his lecture, the sequence in which the high priest meets Dracula in Translyvania has been rendered incomprehensible by the deletion of over 50% of the footage (and occurs about 10-15mins into the film rather than being the first scene), and a lot of the dialogue in the scenes in the cave (where the good-guys rest for the night) is also missing.

• Shih ba pan wu yi
• 18 Legendary Weapons of China
• Legendary Weapons of China

I guess that this could not be sold under the title 18 legendary weapons without being harangued by Trading Standards.

Two cuts reported. Quoted from a usenet posting by Michael Brooke:

The BBFC's interpretation of the Child Protection Act, after a bit of uncertainty in the late 1970s, now seems pretty consistent. Nudity in itself isn't enough to justify cutting - there has to be actual sexual contact of some kind. I don't mean full intercourse or anything like that - one of the two cuts that 'Leolo' suffered was of a couple of obviously under-age children stroking a woman's breasts.

'Leolo' is an ideal case study concerning what is or isn't permissible - having seen both the uncut and cut versions, I'm amazed by what they left in! Bizarrely, shots of an obviously underage boy stuffing raw liver down the front of his trousers, lying face down on the floor and squelching up and down on top of it *doesn't* contravene the Protection of Children Act, but a far more innocent shot such as the one I described above does!

The other cut is for cat molestation.

• The Devils
• Los Diablos

The cinema version was cut when submitted in 2004 with the following BBFC justification: Cut required to scene in which young boy holds apparently erect penis.

Les Diables, a critically well received French drama about a pair of juvenile runaways, was considered in relation to the terms of the Protection of Children Act. The film was a sensitive study of two children, one with learning disabilities, struggling on the margins of society. The film focused on their relationship, not just with the wider world, but also with each other. Several scenes suggested that the children were beginning to become sexually aware and sexually attracted to each other. The parts were played by a boy and a girl who were both under 16 at the time of filming and a few scenes involved a certain amount of nudity. The Board took legal advice about these scenes and also consulted a psychiatrist and a clinical psychologist about the psychological impact that taking part in the scenes may have had on the young persons involved. As a consequence, most of the scenes were allowed to pass but a cut was required to a scene which implied that the boy had become sexually aroused while splashing around in water with the girl. Although it was almost impossible to register at normal speed, on freeze frame it was possible to see that the boy’s penis was apparently erect. In order to comply with the Protection of Children Act, the potentially indecent images showing his arousal were removed.

No DVD or video version has yet been certified

Thanks to Daniel, May 2008: Nothing Explicit

 I remember the film because it was actually shown on BBC4 before it was shown theatrically in the UK, and the scene of the two underage actors splashing around in the bath prior to some apparently off screen sexual contact was intact. I remember at the time being startled by what the scene suggested, but I didn't see any sign of the explicit detail that prompted the BBFC to cut it.

11:11s unofficial pre-cuts and a further 40s cut by the BBFC

Cut in 2006 with the following BBFC comment: The cuts were Cuts for Category. Distributor chose to cuts sight of clearly unsimulated sexual activity (oral genital contact, dildo penetration and masturbation) in order to achieve an '18' classification. An R18 without cuts was available to the distributor.

One woman sucks and licks a dildo but interaction with a chunk of plastic is considered too risque for the Brits

10:22s pre-cut

Cut in 2006 with the following BBFC comment: The cuts were Cuts for Category. Company chose to make one cut to sight of penile shaft during vaginal penetration

The Director's Cut is not quite the director's cut as it was cut by the BBFC in 1999

A scene has been removed soon after Mel Gibson sees the body of Patsy Kensit in which he kills two guards. The first one is beaten with a chain and the second has his head rammed in a car door (a definite BBFC no-no). There is also a cut close-up of a bad guy being shot in the climatic scene.

In addition further scenes are missing at the behest of the distributors:

• The scene where Mel Gibson pumps the car trunk (and hence the South African agent it conceals) full of bullets is missing
• The scene where a South African agent is crushed by a car hoist.

Thanks to James

I have watched the Region 4 version of Lethal Weapon 2 Director's Cut and it has the scenes which the BBFC has cut, ie the killing of the 2 guys on the pier and the extended shooting of a bad guy at the end (not that violent!).

There is unfortunately no scenes in which guys are crushed by a car hoist and bullets shot into the trunk of a car. I've seen R2 & R4 versions now and they're missing, understandably from R2. I've not tracked anything down on the internet about these two scenes, do they exist?

The region 1 DVD is available without BBFC interference at US Amazon. Presumably no sign of the pre-cut scenes though.

The widescreen version (Warner Home Video) was passed with cuts in 1992

The cinema version is 15 yet the video version has been cut and uprated to 18

Cuts apply to cinema, video and DVD versions as last submitted in 1999

The BBFC said that the re-edited version removed 90 seconds of personal injury and sadism. The UK distributors voluntarily cut the incidence of neck breaks, head butts, garroting, eye gouging and the noisy breaking of bones in five of the seven reels.

• The fight scene towards the beginning of the film where Jet Li kills an accomplice is missing Jet Li breaking the guy's hand and then stamping on his foot after which he grabs the guy by the face  and knees him.
• In the same scene we  don't get to see the wire being strapped tightly around the guy's throat.
• Towards the end, when the Chinese family is brought to the forgery workshop, and the old character goes to his his uncle, we don't get to see the guy's neck being snapped.   The implication still remains though.
• In the major fight scene in Murtaghs house between Jet Li's thugs, Gibson, Russo and Glover there are many many small cuts to remove scenes of contact. This includes punches, kicks and the knife scenes. A pregant Russo beating a thug is trimmed as is Jet Li kicking Russo in the head as she enters the door.
• The final scene is considerably cut in the same way, including Gibsons repeated Headbutt to Jet Li. Also as in Goldeneye the sound volume is reduced to make the fight impacts less severe.
• During the car chase on the freeway the death of the Chinese man is cut. On The US DVD you see an obviously fake floppy dummy hit by the bus, but the UK DVD cuts before the impact

The uncut region 1 DVD is available via UK Amazon

Cut for a PG cert.

The line 'you mustn't fuck with the Department of Motor vehicles' has been deleted. (Presumably to keep the certificate at a PG).

Amazon review:

Watching this film was a real treat as it was devoid of the usual American teenage students being slaughtered and was even filmed here in the U.K. It's full of 1960's/70's kitsch and the hero's even drive a real British Mini, a link copied in a recent advertisement campaign! The picture quality is excellent so you can see the Zombies in all their lurid excellence and so are the extra's and packaging. If you only ever buy one Zombie movie, make it this one!

Review from Amazon UK:

The Living Dead Girl is easily my favorite of the 7 Jean Rollin DVD's released thus far by Image and it's the only one in my permanent collection.

If you like your euro-horror a little sexier, a lot gorier, and even quite humorous, you cannot go wrong here. From the opening scene with the grave robbers being disfigured by toxic vapors (hilariously fake) to later ultra-gory scenes as our tragic zombie-female-vamp dispatches one victim after another with her long sharp fingernails or devours their necks in extra-long munching scenes, this one delivers the goods!

It has a very euro-horror feel to it and is not as esoteric and heady as some of the other Rollin films. Although French, it easily would appeal to fans of Italian horror as well...so if you're not a big Rollin fan, you may want to give this one a chance anyway.

• Several cuts but one is to a slow and relentless disembowelling as a woman victim is fed to a female vampire.

Description from Canada Hentai

Working for a moving company, Shouji is invited to a party by a girl named Yuika. However, he is drugged, and multiple women take advantage of him, and rape him repeatedly. When he recovers his memory, he finds himself stuffed in a cardboard box on the railroad tracks, with a suicide note stuffed inside. Shocked, he frantically escapes from the cardboard box. Vowing revenge, he sets off to Yuika's residence. He pretends to be a delivery man, and enters her apartment. There, he stuffs her in a box and takes her to a hideout where she will be used as a lure to contact the other party members that violated him. Watch the depravity of Shouji's revenge as he hunts down and boxes up the women for his carnal revenge...

Slightly pre-cut

Cut in 2006 with the following BBFC comment: The cuts were Cuts for Category. Distributor chose to remove scenes depicting unsimulated sexual activity (apparently unsimulated dildo penetration and vigorous masturbation)

The cinema version was uncut, The BBFC justified the cuts as follows:

The Board removed sight of horses being deliberately tripped and forced into somersault.

This does not appear to be the full story as there is not enough horse tripping to explain away 95s of cuts.

Thanks to Mark

BBC 1 recently showed its usual full uncut version. The 95 seconds of cuts on the BBFC database are nonsense. The only cuts made to the video/DVD are 4 seconds. This footage is of the forward somersault of a horse shot from under Robert Carradine.

• Libesbriefe einer Portugiesischen Nonne

A cinema release was rejected in 1979.

The BBFC passed the film in 2004 with extensive cuts with the following statement: The cuts were Compulsory. Distributor was required to cut indecent images of a child under the terms of the Protection of Children Act 1978, and images of sexualised torture.

Resubmissions of old works highlighted the impact of the change in the definition of a child. Love Letters Of A Portuguese Nun featured sexualised nudity involving an actress who was under 18 at the time of filming. The BBFC judged some of the images to be indecent and cuts were therefore made.

• All reference to Susan Hemingway’s nakedness have been removed in their entirety, this includes the actual torture scenes.

Presumably the actress was over the age of consent though, so this video has fallen victim to the knee jerks of the UK parliament who perversely declared that legal acts are illegal to film.

When submitted in 2007, the film was pre-cut by 32 positions but still required a further 4:56s of cuts with the following BBFC justification: Distributor chose to remove scenes of clearly unsimulated sexual activity (in this case, vaginal penetration and oral-genital contact) to gain an 18 classification
