The UK MIA video and DVD release featured the original UK cinema print which contains the topless nudity during the boat scene with Jai and Loretta. However the film itself starts with Lou and Lisa in the water (their brief dialogue scene on the boat is missing) and their killing is shown before the opening credits. See more »
The most unbelievably, hilariously bad premise for a thriller I've ever heard. But the milestone in this film isn't the premise but the debut of James Cameron (ironically the director another annoying movie at sea but I forgive him because of most of his other movies).
