  In the workshop scene, a close-up shot of Ryback (Seagal) slicing open an enemy’s main artery in his thigh is missing, along with blood gushing from the wound. Immediately after this, the close-up shot of Ryback stabbing the same guy in the armpit twice with the full length of his knife blade, and the shot of the guy falling down the wall crying with blood gushing from his armpit are also missing (0:06).
  -After Ryback shoves the last bad guy onto the buzzsaw, we fail to completely see Ryback grab him and knee him up onto the rotating saw blade. Right after this, a shot of the blade cutting through the bad guy’s shoulder, complete with chippings of bone and oozing blood, has also been cut (0:01).
  -In the final fight between Ryback and Strannix, we fail to see the slow-motion shot of blood and chunks of gore coming out of Strannix’ eye socket after Ryback removes his thumb from it (0:03).This version does however contain the throat-ripping missing from the UK release (98:11 PAL)
