OVERALL: R2

Only version available.

Versions
The film exists in three versions.
- The uncut 94 minute version.
- A ninety-minute version with these edits (courtesy of Ken Anderson's blog write-up on the film): 1) The bodies in the title sequence are optically blurred under the titles, 2) missing a scene with Stritch and Prowse in her apartment is lengthier (including Stritch relaying this information: “I never wore a bra until I was 28. And then for a fast ten minutes. Some quack convinced me it helped firm the muscles. I don’t like being fenced in. It’s a hang-up of mine"), 3) missing a longer version of the flashback of Mineo's seduction by older woman, 4) shortening scenes of Mineo at Times Square porn shops and in front of porno theater, 5) the killer kissing a woman after killing her in an alley, 6) missing a brief scene of Mineo humping his bed in his BVDs, and 7) the final assault is less explicit.
- A shorter edit of the film exists, which eliminates the three minute-long sequence in which Sal Mineo is shown exercising in the Hudson Health Club. The sequence begins with a shot of Mineo's torso as he works on a machine, the machine's pistons pounding up and down symbolically. Mineo is then shown swimming in a pool, and afterwards he is approached by Prowse, who compliments him on his physique ('I think everyone should work out. You have a very nice body [....] I don't like it when men let themselves get fat').

CUTS:

• R2 United Kingdom- Network - Yes, the shorter version of the film although it contains the full gymnasium sequence (86:47 PAL).
