When originally released theatrically in the UK, the BBFC made cuts to secure a 'X' rating. Pre-certificate home video release on Intervision (Betamax, VHS, Video 2000) reinstated the cut material, even though the back of the 1983 release states "Certificate 18". No further media releases were released in the UK until the 2003 DVD release which was pre-cut and finally released uncut on the 2014 UK Blu-ray.
