Welcome to Under The Morgue.

Love the movie, but it's so obviously neutered when you watch it.

The MPAA butchered it like hell. It's rare when you see blood squirting out of a wound cause there is barely ANY gore. It pisses me off so much. I can also say Scream though it wasn't butchered as much as the film above. But a lot of things were edited or cut out which is sad.

Fido: They chose to release without edits, but it is ridiculous that it was originally rated R. Santa Sangre Dead Alive: Because the MPAA hated Peter Jackson before The Lord of the Rings, all of his movies would apply, but this one bothers me the most. Sleepaway Camp 3

The MPAA is such a joke.

Army of Dead did, too. That one might have gotten the harshest edits. Universal was going to take out another six minutes from the already edited version that was going to be released to theaters, because they wanted a PG-13. Even Drag Me To Hell had to have some gore taken out. I'm pretty sure that someone at the MPAA just has a personal vendetta against Sam Raimi.

But Evil Dead? So weak. I'm probably one of the few who thinks the X rating for Blood Sucking Freaks and A Clockwork Orange was unwarranted as well. Edited by JethroClemson, Mar 29 2014, 10:21 PM.

A Clockwork Orange had its disturbing moments but it didn't 'get to me' and to be honest, I didn't see what the hype was about.

Horror films in the 90's got it bad.

Something like nine minutes got cut by the MPAA, mostly because it came out right after John Lennon was murdered. Thank Satan for the uncut version finally coming out in time for the remake.

I didn't know MBV '81 had nine minutes removed. All of the gore is back in the uncut DVD but it's still only three or four minutes longer than the theatrical DVD.

I'm sure Rob Zombie's movies have been butchered in some way. House of 1000 Corpses mostly, but that could have been when Zombie had to switch studios.
