The VCI and Studio Canal releases have some differing exclusive extras.
GENERAL NOTES:
The original submission to the BBFC was 81:27 (78:12 PAL) but had pre-release cuts arrived at by mutual discussion between the film makers and the BBFC. Material removed included:
- The ice-tongs stabbing.
- Sounds of screaming during the binocular murder.
- Shots of a woman's decapitated head being placed into a bag.
The film exists in four primary versions:
- the uncut British version before BBFC cuts (~82 minutes);
- the British X-certificate version (~81 minutes);
- the U.S. theatrical version with added ~12 minute Hypno-Vista prologue (~93 minutes);
- the U.S. television version that removes the prologue and features cuts to violence.
