Differences between the uncut version and the UK older BBFC 18 version can be found at Movie Censorship.

CUTS:
- R0 America- Elite Entertainment - No cuts
- R0 Special Edition United Kingdom- Hardgore / Screen Entertainment - Yes - Hardgore left the soundtrack to the film intact, and then either slowed down the action in some places to stretch out an "acceptable" image over the "unacceptable" ones, or re-framed the image so the "nasty" stuff is off-screen. From the BBFC-site: "When submitted to the BBFC the work had a running time of 94m 11s. To obtain this category cuts of 0:41 were required. The cuts were Compulsory. Cut was required to remove images of a woman being raped over a rock, in accordance with the BBFC's Sexual Violence Policy.
