Shortly after, a further cut (13 sec approx) is made to footage of the girl spinning around.
His dialogue "Stop moving" & "Don't go anywhere" is also cut (41 sec approx). The entire following sequence is reduced to about one shot of the naked woman strung upside down in the 'R' version losing footage of him placing the pig mask & rope on her head & spinning her around. The hammer scene is heavily cut (50sec approx) as the 'R' version only shows the photographer picking up the hammer,a C-U of the victims face & a shot of him bringing down the hammer once followed by a brief scream (eliminating the nudity, gore and victims loss of bodily functions). The sequence with the two female models in the park loses the more explicit poses in the 'R' version & some more rear nudity & fondling (25 sec). The later unpleasant rear entry rape over the weights bar,is also totally missing from the 'R' cut along with the following sequence of an unclothed doll (2 min). A shot of the severed head in the road & the following footage of the photographer eating chunks of a female torso are totally missing from the 'R' version (44 sec approx). The next cut is to the fellatio scene (another victim as we discover in some 'R' cut alternate footage running about 20 sec when the photographer is seen picking her up in his car) the 'R' version removes any implication of oral sex with the severed head, making it look like he lifts it quickly to his face & drops it from the car window (30sec approx). A further set of cuts are made to conversation, when he wields the knife losing all shots of the bloodied moaning girl & the dialogue "Relax, you'll be in hell soon enough" (40 sec approx). After he finishes further footage is cut of him slapping her buttocks and walking naked to the bathroom (28sec approx). The 'R' version only shows a few thrusts after she is knocked out (30sec approx). The following rape scene is drastically cut in the 'R' version losing all the shots of the girls bloody face & all the thrusts till she is knocked unconscious. The footage in the strip club is reduced by about half (1min 30sec approx) losing the more explicit frontal nudity of the two pole dancers notably the one who lapdances for the photographer. As soon as the razor is held to her throat the 'R' cut resumes on the weight training scene, eliminating spurting blood, an additional dunking and footage of her flailing hands smearing her blood on the bath tiles (17 sec approx).ĭuring the sequence featuring Gunnar Hansen, the photographer has a "dream" featuring a mutilated corpse cut from the 'R' cut (5 sec) and the other bodies are only shown in B&W in the 'R' version & not colour like the DC. She is also held under the water for much longer in the DC (12 sec approx). In the uncut version she is dunked headfirst in the water roughly 7x but only 3x in the 'R' version. The killing of the prostitute in the bath is also drastically cut. When she later regains consciousness the 'R' version totally removes a shot of her naked, bound & gagged (22 sec approx). The photographer then smears the dying womans blood on the second prostitutes bare buttocks (7 seconds approx) who he then brutally chokes for far longer in the DC (17 sec approx) and the R version loses footage of her squirming legs during the extended choking as it shows her private parts. The throat-cutting of the the first prostitute in the threesome is reduced losing footage of blood running down her breasts (4 sec approx). We see one brief B & W shot of a mutilated woman in the 'R' cut and the sequences of the killer ranting in german (1min 20sec).
The opening titles of the 'R' version are drastically toned down, losing the "Jews are not the men to be blamed for nothing." quote, the grainy 9/11 footage & childrens rhyme as well as all the graphic colour footage of the photographer's victims. The differences between the "Unrated" and "R-Rated" versions are as follows (thanks to Rewind user Mark Meakin): The best English friendly release is the R0 US. Note, some releases are not fully English friendly. The R0 Poland is the "Unrated" version with DTS audio, but there are no extras and it is non-anamorphic. The R0 US, Austria and Holland are the "Unrated" version and has extras including the audio commentary, but is non-anamorphic. The R2 Scandinavia release is the "Unrated" version and the only anamorphic widescreen release, but is missing the audio commentary.
