Beginning of the movie uncut version


Does anyone know if at the beginning of this movie (uncut version) a young man manages to escape the coven and goes to a rooming house/hotel and people come to get him and take him back and there's corn everywhere in the room?

it is in the movie, but not in the beginning.

Sounds like you might have a cut version...

The allegedly uncut 4 hour version I watched began with Bette Davis in the village on "Ploughing Day," then cut to the wife in NYC complaining to her shrink about her husband cheating on her. The film then cut back to Bette Davis saying the house she has up for sale in the village "is not for profit but for whelping a child," then it cuts to NYC with the husband coming on to his wife and telling her that he just quit his cartoonist job to become "a serious painter." Then they argue and insult each other. Their daughter freaks out and screams at them both to shut up. Only then do the couple go to the lawyer to read the will.

your version is cut. in the original, at the 11-minute mark the phone rings, nick answers & is told that kate's father died. the funeral scene begins at the 11:29 mark.

your version is missing the first 11-1/2 minutes.
