Video City International (gr) – VHS – 87:56 (PAL) – uncutĠ0:20 – Missing from the start of the Video Classics (VC) tape. Video Classics (au) – VHS – 79:26 (PAL) – cut We presume this is a mistake as the rating is too low and the running time would make it uncut. The National Classification Database claims that in February 1984, Video Classics had an 88-minute tape passed with an M-rating. However, some of the missing footage consists of dialogue or similarly non-controversial material. The print may have been sourced from the R-rated theatrical version, as the running times are similar. In the early 1980s, a heavily censored 79:26 (PAL) version of LAST CANNIBAL WORLD was issued by Video Classics. It was distributed by Cinema International Corporation. Unitalia Films of Australia was the applicant. These extra cuts were made to remove ‘indecent violence’. In April 1977, a 2550.00-meter (92:57) print of LAST CANNIBAL WORLD was banned because of ‘indecency and indecent violence’.Ī 2276.69-meter (82:59) ‘reconstructed version’ lost a further 23.30-meter (00:51) before being awarded an R-rating in May 1977.
