Can someone tell me whats different about....


Can someone please tell me the extra shots that are included in the Unrated Director's Cut. For example, the infamous beheading scene in the opening, do you see the head come off or is it just a neck slit? The version I've seen shows the knife slit through the side of the guys neck and his face looks in agony and that's it. Is there more? What about the other scenes?

Thanks.

All i know is that in the uncut version, when they slit the guys neck, his head
falls to one side, it doesn't fall off, it just keeps hanging there.

Not too sure about the other scenes. I do believe the ghetto ghouls attacking jefferson is more graphic and Ginty feading some of the ghouls to the rats in the cellar is also longer.

Thanks. I just got the Australian DVD from Paramount and the blurb at the back claims it is the director's cut with unseen footage. However, the timing is 94 minutes and several websites claim that the 94 minute version is the UK CUT missing 3 minutes.
