As for the first 'Friday...'. I have that copy, although I'm sure I read somewhere that although the UK cut has more gore than the American R-Rated cut, there is also an Asian version that is completely uncut, I can be and probably am wrong though.


From the site I linked to in an earlier post:


Friday the 13th uncut import (1980)
Running Time: 1:34:55

Language: English
Quality Rating: A

Letterboxed
No Subtitles (several languages optional)

Directed By: Sean S. Cunningham

Special Effects / Make-up: Tom Savini

Starring: Adrienne King, Betsy Palmer, Harry Crosby, Mark Nelson, Kevin Bacon

The splatter classic Friday the 13th was released in Asia with more of Tom Savini's brilliant make-up effects intact; effects which were cut from all of the US releases, even the DVD.

The extra scenes are included in this version of the film, including:

Annie's death scene is a little longer. More blood is shown oozing from her slit throat.

The death of Jack (Kevin Bacon) contains more blood, including a camera shot from above showing blood spraying out of his neck and into his mouth. This scene alone makes this a must-see tape!

The shot of Marcie when she is axed in the head is a little longer.


Edit: Looks to be an exact port of the UK disc.
