The UK release was cut, cuts required to two scenes of sex juxtaposed with violence which give a strong impression of abuse and lack of consent. One further cut made to sight of a knife being used as a masturbatory aid, in order to obtain an R18 classification. Cuts made in accordance with BBFC policy and guidelines for 'R18'; and under the terms of the Video Recordings Act 1984 ('harm to potential viewers...or to society...through the depiction of violent behaviour...and human sexual activity'). An uncut classification was not available.
