US premiere of the film, other than isolated festival screenings, was on Sci-Fi channel, which heavily trimmed gore and sex. Several scenes were cut out entirely.
US DVD release of the film is slightly cut (about thirty seconds total) compared to some R2 releases.
When Speedball ODs on the re-agent, he sits up and his eyeball pops out.
When he explodes, we see him open his shirt and his stomach spew out. (On the DVD, the shot lingers on West up until Speedball's guts are already halfway through the air.)
When the Doctor Phillips is battling with Laura, a few of the shots where he starts hacking at her neck are trimmed.
