VHS Pre-Cert contains
*Gory death of the psychiatrist about 1 hour 7 minutes: A few frames
are cut to the initial tearing and blood spurting as well as a frontal
sitting scene of a shocked Virginia Madsen when blood spurts onto her
face. The present cut shows merely a quick reaction shot.
*Also cut is a more graphic rocking of the doctor as he violently
headbutts the table when Tony Todd's character Candyman is tearing away
at his flesh. The screams of the doctor are reduced for sound impact too
No dvd is available of anything but the R-rated DVD. Thanks MPAA cretins!
