Per Wikipedia this movie was originally rated NC-17; it's listed on IMDB as not having a rating(?). Do any fans of this flick know if there is either an unrated or NC-17 rated version available? Also--do you have any idea why it received an NC-17 in the first place? Thanks much for your input.
shareAs far as I know this film has never been submitted for a rating, it doesn't even have an American distributor. Having just watched the UK DVD, I can't imagine any company being interested in distributing it in the US. The movie is a tedious abstract mess, almost a photographed stage play, with some strong violence and sex scenes that fail to generate any interest. The only instance I can think of that would pose a problem with the MPAA is a scene where Gil Bellows appears to be having oral-to-anal sex with a female, also Gil is somewhat graphically raped in jail (but it's seen in long shot). It's a bad film, but I suppose it would be of some interest to Gil's fans. The DVD transfer is mediocre and non-anamorphic.
